Here are 3 essential tips for mixing vocals:
1. **Set your volume balance first**: Before diving into plugins, get your volume levels right. If you skip this step, you'll end up making everything louder without addressing the core mix.
2. **Boost the presence, but with caution**: Don’t shy away from enhancing the presence of your vocals. Just make sure it doesn’t become too harsh.
3. **Try the high-frequency knob on an LA-2A compressor**: This underrated trick can significantly change the tone of your vocal, so don't overlook it!
