Description
Great vocal production starts long before plugins - and ends with intentional creative choices.Music Production: Vocal Processing walks you through a complete, practical vocal workflow used by modern producers and engineers. This course focuses on clarity, control, and musical decision-making, helping you turn raw vocal recordings into polished, mix-ready performances.You'll begin with recording fundamentals, including room treatment, microphone choices, and proper gain staging, so your vocals start clean and controlled. From there, you'll learn why tuning and gating should come first, how to remove unnecessary low-frequency noise, and how to use corrective EQ and dynamic EQ to fix problems without damaging tone.The course then moves into multi-stage compression, explaining how to smooth dynamics first and shape character second, using classic compressor styles as reference points. You'll explore tasteful saturation, color EQ, and how to place vocals correctly within a full mix - not just in solo.Finally, you'll learn how to apply artistic and spatial effects, create space using sidechaining or intelligent tools, and avoid common widening and phase issues. Throughout the course, the emphasis is on intentional processing rather than over-processing.By the end, you'll understand not just what to use in a vocal chain, but why and when to use it - giving you consistent, professional vocal results across genres.
