Vocal Mixing

Service Description

Professional vocal mixing for artists who want their vocals to sound clear, powerful and professional. Your vocal is often the most important element of a record. A great vocal mix needs to sound natural, controlled and present while still fitting into the production. At Starcity Studios, our vocal mixing service combines technical engineering with musical judgement and experience in vocal production. We can work with rap vocals, sung vocals, harmonies, doubles, backing vocals and ad-libs, helping to bring the different layers together and create a cohesive vocal sound. Depending on the project, vocal mixing can include: • Vocal editing and comping • Pitch correction and tuning • EQ and frequency control • Compression and dynamics • De-essing • Vocal layering and balancing • Reverb and delay • Saturation and creative effects • Vocal automation • Balancing the vocal against the instrumental • Creative vocal effects where appropriate We don't simply apply the same processing to every vocal. We listen to the performance, understand the production and work towards the sound the song actually needs. This service is ideal if your vocals have already been recorded and you need them professionally mixed into an existing production. If the vocal itself needs substantial production, recording, arrangement or creative direction, we can also help with Vocal Production or Recording. And if the entire song needs mixing rather than just the vocals, our Studio Mixing or Online Mixing services may be more appropriate. Bring us the vocals. We'll help them become part of the record.
