Vocals Guide: Tutorials & Tips

The vocal is usually the most important sound in a song, so it deserves the most care, from the moment you set up the mic to the final reverb send. This hub collects our vocal production tutorials: recording setup and technique, compression, EQ, reverb, and genre-specific mixing for rap, rock and bedroom vocals.

It’s for singers, rappers and producers recording at home or in a small studio who want vocals that sound clear, controlled and professional. Start with the equipment and setup guide, then the techniques for capturing pristine vocals, because a good recording makes everything after it easier. Next, learn vocal compression and clarity, then pick the mixing guide that matches your genre or DAW. If you need a singer for your track, there’s a guide to finding one too.
