What people are saying about this course
Vocals being the king of the song, it was always tricky for me to get them right – especially when you have multiple stacks of adlibs. This tutorial really helped me out by seeing the vocal chains step by step and the thought process behind every decision. By following the techniques I’ve learned from this course my vocals are sounding a lot more polished and professional.
