COURSE SUMMARY

Born To Produce's Recording and Mixing Vocals in Cubase is a 34-lesson, 5+ hour video course covering every aspect of vocal production inside Cubase. The course starts with recording theory including microphone types, polar patterns, environment setup, and mid/side stereo configurations, then moves into Cubase-specific recording setup with the Control Room, cue mixes, and recording modes. Post-production modules cover comping, VariAudio for pitch and timing correction, formant shifting, and creating doubled takes. You'll then learn techniques for getting a big, wide, deep vocal sound, followed by complete vocal mixing using EQ, compression, saturation, reverb, and delay. The final module covers creative vocal chops and pitch shifting for modern production. Only stock Cubase plugins are used. Works with Cubase Elements, Artist, and Pro. Created by Born To Produce, a Steinberg Certified Training Centre with 10+ years of teaching experience.

COURSE CURRICULUM

6 MODULES. VOCALS THAT SOUND PROFESSIONAL.

Every module builds your vocal production skills from the ground up. From the microphone to the final mix, you'll learn every technique and Cubase tool you need to produce vocals that sound polished and powerful.ver.

01

RECORDING THEORY
Mic Types, Polar Patterns & Getting the Best Performance
Getting a great vocal recording is not hard if you know how to do it. Learn the fundamental principles of recording vocals, from setting up microphones and understanding polar patterns to creating the right environment for a clean capture. Just as importantly, learn how to get the best emotional performance out of your singer - including mid/side stereo configurations and recording multiple singers at once.

02

RECORDING SETUP IN CUBASE
Control Room, Cue Mixes, Recording Modes & Best Practices
Dive into Cubase and learn how to set up for recording like a pro. Master the different recording modes, use the Control Room to record multiple people at once with separate headphone mixes, and learn how to send reverb to the singer's headphones so they feel comfortable performing. Plus pre-recording checks and best practices to minimise failed takes and keep sessions running smoothly.

03

PERFECTING THE PERFORMANCE
Comping, VariAudio, Pitch Correction & Timing Fixes
Post-production on vocals is incredibly powerful in Cubase. Learn how to comp together the best possible performance from multiple takes, then use VariAudio to pitch correct, formant shift, and fix timing errors with precision. You'll also learn how to use leftover recordings to create doubled takes for fattening and thickening the vocal later on.

04

GETTING A BIG VOCAL SOUND
Width, Depth, Doubled Takes & Harmony Voices
Learn the techniques that make vocals sound wide, thick, and deeply satisfying. Discover how to use doubled takes from the comping stage to create a super natural, wide vocal sound - the single best technique for making vocals sound bigger. You'll also learn mid/side processing for added width and how to use Cubase's Chord Track to generate extra harmony voices on any vocal.

05

VOCAL MIXING
EQ, Compression, Saturation, Reverb & Delay
Learn step by step the fundamental processes of mixing vocals using only the tools you already have in Cubase. From corrective EQ and compression to saturation, distortion, reverb, and delay - you'll understand what every vocal recording needs before heavier processing, and how to take it in different directions depending on the style. Demonstrated across multiple vocal projects for real-world context.

06

CHOPPING & PITCHING VOCALS
Creative Vocal Chops, MIDI Instruments & Modern Production
Vocal chops and pitch shifting are a staple of modern production but can be tricky to get right. Learn how to create one-off vocal chops to embellish your performances, or build entire sections from chopped and pitched vocals. You'll turn vocal segments into playable MIDI controlled instruments so you can jam out any performance you like, and learn to do it in pure audio too. Both approaches give incredible results.

★★★★★ from 1500+ verified students

★★★★★

"Put simply BTP tutorials have helped me to understand how Cubase works. I have a had real doubts as to wether I could ever uhnderstand the the whole world of recording and making my own home studio a real deal, so far BTP Ultimate beginner, BTP Rock, BTP Pop Singer, BTP Mixing and now BTP Vocal Mixing have given me a solid path as to how this gets done. These are no nonsence tutorials/tools and furthermore I wouldnt wast my time and money if I felt otherwise."

"I bought this to learn about mix again. I learned how to prioritize and work in each range so that no sound gets drowned out. I watched all the videos and plan on watching them again. I'm using Cubase, and it's explained in the included plug-in, so I'm also grateful for that. thank you very much."

"I was under the impression that I knew how to record vocals, but I didn't know how to integrate the recording into the mix. This course taught me that I didn't know how to record vocals, but I do now. Having one course that went through the entire process from setting up the microphone to publishing the finished song was, for me, invaluable. For example, I was always a bit confused about compression. Now I know exactly how to do it and why I should do it. Whether you're completely new to recording or if you want to consolidate what you think you know, this is a course that hits the spot."

Cubase Recording & Mixing Vocals Tutorial

★★★★★

"As a teacher myself, I am typically critical of the teaching style of others. But, there is nothing to criticize here! The course, as with the other five courses I own, is delivered in a zip file of many videos. Each video delves into and is immersed in one aspect of treating recording, mixing, and mastering vocals. As with all their other courses, many of these video lessons resulted in major AHA! moments that bordered on revelations of sorts. As an accomplished jazz musician who always thought that mixing and mastering was beyond my skill set, I am beginning to feel like I can pretty much do anything now, thanks to Cubase and all of these courses that Jon creates with Born to Produce."

QUESTIONS ANSWERED

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE COURSE

Which versions of Cubase does this work with?

This course works with Cubase Elements, Artist, and Pro. It was made in Cubase 10 but the techniques, tools, and workflows apply to all Cubase versions. Only stock Cubase plugins are used throughout.

Do I need to be an experienced Cubase user?

You should be comfortable with the basics of Cubase - creating tracks, navigating the interface, and loading plugins. If you've completed our Cubase Tutorial for Beginners or have equivalent experience, you're ready. The course focuses entirely on vocal recording and mixing, not general DAW basics.

What equipment do I need to follow along?

At a minimum, you'll need Cubase and a microphone (even a basic USB mic works for getting started). An audio interface and a condenser microphone will give you better results, but the recording theory and mixing techniques in this course apply regardless of your setup. The course teaches you how to get the best results from whatever gear you have.

Does this course use any third-party plugins?

No. The entire course uses only Cubase's stock plugins. You don't need to buy anything extra. Every technique works right out of the box with whatever version of Cubase you own.

Are project files or workfiles included?

No. This course is designed as a comprehensive vocal production knowledge repository and reference guide. There are no workfiles to download. The value is in the 34 lessons of in-depth teaching and real-world demonstrations that you can apply directly to your own vocal projects.

Is this only for singing vocals, or does it cover other recordings too?

The primary focus is on singing vocals, but the recording theory, microphone techniques, comping, mixing, and processing skills apply to any type of vocal recording - spoken word, voiceover, rap, podcast, or anything else you capture with a microphone.

How long do I have access to the course?

Lifetime access. Once you purchase, the course is yours forever. It lives on your hard drive and you can go back to any lesson at any time. If you ever need to re-download the tutorial zip just reach out to us via the support page and we'll send you a fresh download link.

What do I get when I purchase the course?

Instant access via a downloadable zip to all 34 lessons (5+ hours of content). You also get access to the Born To Produce students Facebook group, and full email support from the Born To Produce team (less than 24 hour response time) if you get stuck at any point.
