Sup guys hope ur all chillin
So basically I've been working on my beatmaking and I really like making them drums bang and that snare to snap. The problem I seem to be getting into with alot of beats is that when my snare is hitting, I can barely hear the vocal. It's as if the vocals are being overshadowed and ducking under the snare when it's playing. I usually layer about 3/4 snares and put an eq to boost the mids slightly but thats pretty much it (no eq).
When the snare is hitting the volume goes through the roof and is hitting the red zone of the fader (like 6+) db. I try to lower the pad fader for the snare but it won't do much and if I do it too low the snap of the snare is completely gone and you can barely hear it. A friend of mine told me that gainstaging would solve it but I don't know if that's possible in the Rens mixer. Does any of this make sense to yall reading this? If so help would be appreciated
peace and love
