Q: What's your typical work process?
A: My typical work process starts by me cleaning the vocal with eq with compression. I remove unnecessary breaths along with a desser. I remove white noise and then I begin to add effect on vocals to create a uniqueness to the song. After that I begin remaking the beat so that it fits the artist more. Meaning I create drops and eq the beat along with flangers to make the song come out more. Next I begin making my stutters on appropriate spots. Finally I go back and revise everything. I make sure all decibels are correct. I usually wait a couple hours before I come back again revise what I did. If everything is perfect I then master the song. I then create the mp3 and wave file. Test it on different speakers from phone to car to regular speakers. Once everything is perfect I send the song to my client.
