    So grateful for you uploading this, there's not too many specialist vocal producer tutorials online. It's usually producers who do a little mixing on the vocals, but never someone who goes through the correct way of Tuning, Aligning, etc.
  • @ProdByAdamSki
    Crazy. This kind of content like mix with the masters is invaluable. You used to have to intern and find work in a studio for years to gain all of this knowledge. What a blessing
  • @ehodylaum
    Louis is a master that I will follow forever. Its such attention and dedication to what he is making. I identify myself so much on it. Amazing video!
  • @emmyjur

    Thanks Mr. bell. Education from an actual industry giant.
  • @Byron101_
    I really love the automatic vocal alignment and the easy harmony function in Cubase, highly recommend for this task... massive timesaver!! ❤
  • @lorencoburn
    Audio puzzles, Thank You For Sharing , Melodyne is not so foreign now.
  • @user-mz3ni8yu4v
    I can tell he did a lot of melodyn on Sunflower for Swae Lees vocal. Especially the “ooh some things you can't refuse…” part
  • @cstoomey
    God manual crossfading Pro tools vocals. I remember doing that. That's why I switched to Ableton. Automatic cross fades. So amazing.

    WE WANT TO SEE HIM MAKE A BEAT!!!!!!!!! CMONNNNNNN
  • @a9ubh4v67
    Hey team...can u bring MARTIN GARRIX ?.....his compositions, mixing, and arrangement are next level...
  • @MattMulholland
    Is the vocal already pitch corrected before going into Melodyne? Trying to figure out the workflow...
  • @ALLGOOD_MUSIC
    Not sure if you know this Louis but your the artist!!! The people you you work with are just instruments 😂. Awesome work flow
  • @heartshinemusic
    Great video. Although I think it might already be a bit outdated because chances are that Louis is now using VocAlign to sync up those backing vocals and harmonies much quicker.
  • @JoeySalvia
    I love this. Does this program have the ability to keep the vocal from sounding like an effect or tuned? If I was to get this for vocals, would the essentials be worth starting with?
