I stumbled upon this. Dunno if anyone's caught wind of it but hey free gaga stems!

Cheers for this - some really interesting fx going on in the vocals!

 

[MEGA DAVE]

I know right? I said the same thing, alot of the vocal track blew my mind, like how much bass is in the main vocals

 

[Melb_shredder]

fucking cool this will be nice to have a listen to properly

They really love tuning her vibrato. Always has such a weird sound.

Out of curiosity, what's impressing you guys about the vox track? It sounds like standard fare for this genre. Various filtered, effected delays, dubs and autotune related effects, barely any verb, tons of pocketing (vocalign?).

 

[Harry Hughes]

Don't like her music at all, but thanks for this anyway.
Vocal track was rather interesting I guess

It's interesting mainly because I tend to completely avoid this type of music, so it's basically new to me

lol +1 harry, it's just interesting to see what they do as opposed to mixing metal

Her vibrato's not far off of that in a live setting, actually - she has some videos of her doing piano/vocal stuff on youtube and it's unnatural sounding sometimes. Probably accentuated in studio, but It's far better than the usual AT stuff we hear in the genre.

What's mostly impressing me about the vocal track is how the layers are interacting with eachother, more of a production/arrangement thing.

A lot of those filtered/effected delays I had previously thought were subtle synth lines, when listening in the full mix.

possibly a dumb question but I notice there's absolutely no music bleed from the phones... I typically hear some in my tracks, how are they avoiding this? iso headphones?

You can hear bleed right at the very start, under the work 'let'. There is a synth line creeping up under her vocal as the compressor lets go. After that you can clearly hear synth and drum bleed between her lead lines. The backings are pretty tightly edited.

Pretty wild stuff going on in the vocal stem.

 

[MEGA DAVE]

ah, i had my monitors down pretty low and didnt catch that first run

 

[DeclanWhite]

[[UEAK]Clowd]

[sinewavealex]

Awesome. Some really great stuff going on there on vocals.

 

[lilhermiejobo]

[updog]

Searched for a bit but couldn't find it...

love the harmonies, and how common it is to have one main track for verse, then build things up on prechorus and chorus with double tracking.

love how every single expression is perfect here. so many rock and metal guys lack any conviction in their vocals. anyone who thinks this is overly tuned doesnt understand what these guys are trying to achieve.

 

[Machinated]

and btw i fucking love this music, would love to be able to write this shit haha
