REQ: Puremix Tony Maserati Mixing Lifeboats Episode 5
After getting a general balance and ideas in place, Tony turns his attention back to the vocals and continues multiple passes of the song through his first print of the mix.
See how Tony Maserati:
Quickly sets EQ and compression on the arp pluck to get it into the mix, the returns focus to the general vocal balance
Sets up a parallel vocal compression chain to add weight to the vocal
Revisits the vocal reverb automation pass with a more delicate touch
Automates the 1/8th note delay send on the lead vocal
Rides individual reverb sends to create new textures on the vocal in different sections of the song
Discusses doing multiple prints for his reference, and when he turns to his second engineers for feedback
