I’m going to keep that on slow.Īnd first, let’s jump on the mix and listen to that vocal. But if we want that fader to react instantly to the changes, we’re just going to click on fast. So if we want to have a sort of slow attack, we’re going to just click on slow to get a more natural sound. Then we have a slow and fast, which is going to act as an attack basically. This is going to be our target and is going to determine how the fader is going to move, it’s going to be sensitive to what’s coming into the plugin. Then we have the target, and this is very important. So by default it’s at zero and I usually leave it there. So I’m going to just focus on vocal, and this is going to add the sensibility of the vocal opposed to the noise floor of the recording. So this is grayed out because I’m not using it as a side chain. And the music one is mainly if you use this plugin as a side chain to the music mix, which I never do on my end. Then we have the sensibility, and we’re going to focus only with the vocal knob right here. This is where we’re going to determine how loud and how quiet I want the fader to go to. It’s going to ride up and down, so it’s going to increase the volume and decrease the volume of the signal that comes in to this plugin. So we have that main knob right here that is actually the main feature of the plugin. I’m just going to go and just show you quickly what that plugin is made of. Okay, so let’s jump and look at what we have here. Okay? So you can use it at the beginning or at the end or both.īut the way I like to use it is to balance the dynamic of a dynamic vocal before hitting any compressors. But it can also be used as the last plugin of your chain just to ride the vocal in the mix. So basically, this plugin is going to be inserted on the first slot of my insert to balance the dynamics out before adding compression and so on. I am going to tend to use this Vocal Rider before hitting the plugins. Now, this is a very cool plugin that I use if I have a vocal that is very dynamic that I have to work with. All right, so let’s jump right in Cubase and look at the Vocal Rider from Waves and how I use it in Cubase.
