🎙️ Vocal tuning & production (RX, Melodyne, Autotune)
🎛️ Analog-style mastering with modern loudness standards
🎧 Podcast & dialogue cleanup
🧠 Emotional, musical mix decisions — not just technical tweaks

About Last Night

Duration: 3:36 Sample Rate: 44.1kHz Overview: An ambient-heavy ballad with a minimalist approach. The vocal chain balances intimacy with presence, using a transparent compressor (likely LA-2A or opto emulation) and a high-shelf boost around 12kHz to add air. Mix Highlights: Vocals: Dual-layered lead + light doubles, mild saturation, EQ cut around 350Hz to remove boxiness. Guitars: Stereo-spread clean tones, subtle modulated delay (1/8D) on send, panned wide. Low-End: Subtle, using filtered kick with a cut at ~400Hz to avoid mid mud. No bass guitar — a choice that lets reverb fill space. Ambience: Lexicon-style reverb on vocal and lead instruments, tails tucked with sidechain against the vocal. Mastering Chain: Gentle compression (1.5:1), dynamic EQ dips on ~3.5kHz (harsh buildup), maximizer hitting ~-0.8 dBTP. music master vocal beat
