How to Mix Vocals That Cut Through the Noise

Not every vocal needs to be louder. It needs to be clearer. Mixing vocals with music is difficult sometimes, but ditto for dialog with background noise!

Clarity Over Volume

Balance is about frequencies, not just gain. Vocals should sit in the mix, not fight with it.

Room Correction and Monitoring

We treat rooms and trust professional metering—not guesswork.

Our Workflow

Vocal compression, subtractive EQ, and automation are part of our everyday chain.

Real-World Story

Layla, a gospel singer, recorded a heartfelt track—but every playback sounded like she was singing from a distance. Her mic was fine. The mix wasn’t.

ULOV cleaned up the low-end masking, added surgical EQ, and brought her vocal forward in the stereo field. Layla said, “It’s like studio magic.” We said, “That’s just good engineering.”
