Pre Mixing Tips
1. Set up your mic in a place with little to no echo
2. Drag your instrumental into the first channel
3. Click the EQ button on the left hand side above the channels
- Set your second channel's settings to this: (P - 20 L) (H,M, & L - 3.2)
- Set your third channel's settings to this: (P - 30 R) (H- 6.2) (M & L - 3.2)
- Then click the red box with an R in it on the 2nd and 3rd channels so they record
- Click the red dot and start recording you stupid fuck
How To Mix
-1. Select a channel then click the symbol in the top left showing a single wave to switch out of multi track
0. Highlight breaths and noises before/after the verse, right click and silence them
1. Amplify - Center Wave
2. Dynamic Processing - Classic Soft Knee

-Put these settings in (250MS, 10MS, 1812MS, 20, 100%, 35%)
9. Repeat steps -1 through 8 on the other verse you recorded
Post Mixing Tips
1. This is where you need to adjust the volume of your vocals to the volume of the beat
- The "V" button near where you changed all the H's M's and L's is means volume (ingenious right?)
- Use a pair of headphones and speakers so you can hear it two different ways while doing levels
