How to Produce Clear, Studio-Quality Vocals, Even if You Don't Have Expensive Equipment or a Professionally Treated Commercial Studio...
If You're a Home Studio Musician or Project Studio Engineer Who Wants to Replace Thin and Harsh Vocals With Confident and Powerful Vocal Productions that Jump Out of the Speakers and Sit With the Instruments in the Mix...Then You Came to the Right Place
Most home studio musicians and engineers worry about the quality of their vocals.

Look how worried cartoon me is!
Chances are, you don't know if you're using the right microphone for your vocal. You might not even be sure whether you're setting the correct levels on your interface when you're getting ready to record.
And when you place the mic in front of the singer, you get a small and noisy voice instead of the round, warm, and present vocal sound you hear on your favorite records.
Even though you've experimented with different mic techniques, you either end up with a muddy, honky sound (like you're speaking with your hands over your mouth)...or you'll get a thin, sibilant voice that sounds too far away.
Once you think you got a decent vocal to work with, you still don't know how to use tuning, aligning, and editing to make your vocals sound tighter and more professional.
In the mix, you wish you could get the music and vocals to sound balanced. You wish you could find that perfect middle ground of big vocals that don't muddy up the mix.

Instead of full, rich, and thick vocals that pop out of the mix, you end up with a thin and harsh mess that's buried underneath the instruments!
Talk About Frustrating!

"Draw me like all of your frustrated boys!"
Although you've tried all the Youtube tricks, like parallel compression, duplicating tracks and applying different processing on each vocal track, your vocals still don't sound like the professional recordings you like so much.
Maybe you've all but given up trying to record professional vocals in your home studio? If that's the case, please don't give up yet!

Everybody Who Says You Can't Produce Pro Vocals in Your Home Studio...is Lying...
Don't worry, you can produce professional vocals, even if you don't have expensive equipment, a high-end microphone or a professionally treated room.
In case you don't know me, I'm Björgvin Benediktsson and I run Audio Issues.
I've been working in the audio industry since 2006. I started out doing live sound back home in my native Iceland, but since then I've transitioned into recording and producing. First in Madrid, Spain, where I went to audio school, and today I make a living as an audio educator in Tucson, Arizona.
I've been recording music for over half my life and I've taught thousands of musicians and engineers like yourself how to make a bigger impact with your music since 2011.
But I wasn't always qualified to teach. My first vocal productions were terrible!

I would muddy up the midrange just by waking up in the morning!

I would set up a vocal session without having a clue what I needed. I used the worst budget microphones. I had no idea where to position the mic. I think I even tried to record using my computer sound card!
Talk about poor recording quality...
I'd put the singer in the corner of my bedroom and use my closet door as a divider. Of course, I had no idea that this would just add more reflections and room sound to my vocal track. I would've had better luck recording the vocals anywhere else!
After trudging through to get a good take I'd be surprised by how thin and harsh my vocals sounded. I'd be even more baffled that I couldn't fit them into the mix. I'd try to get a clean and open mix where every instrument supported the vocals, but they always sounded either too close, or too far away.
No matter how much EQ'ing I did, I couldn't create separation between my vocals and the instruments. I didn't understand how to use compression to keep my vocals balanced and present. And I struggled to use reverb, delay, and other effects to thicken up the vocals so that they would sit properly with the rest of the instruments.
The Not-So-Secret Vocal Production Workflow Revealed...

Over a decade later, after going to audio engineering school and working on countless recording sessions, I learned an invaluable, step-by-step workflow that helped me make every vocal production sound great.
I could make (almost) every mic sound great with the right placement. Even when I had to settle for the only mic lying around, I knew I could make it sound better in the mix with the right processing.
I learned to use EQ and compression to make the vocal come alive. If I needed to subtly tame the vocals to fit in a dynamic ballad, it was easy. If I wanted the vocals aggressive and in-your-face for a rock recording, that was no problem either.
And with the right processing, I could find the exact point where the vocals would fit with the instruments without sounding glued on top or buried underneath.
Imagine if you could bypass a decade of learning, a year of audio engineering school, and countless hours of failed vocal production sessions and start creating professional, studio-quality vocals from your home studio, even if you don't have expensive equipment or high-end microphones?
Turns out...you can.

What Are People Saying?
"A great, well rounded source of information of dealing with vocals from start to finish"
"I’m mainly schooled in the “analog years” and still working through the digital age. In everyone’s case, there is always something else to learn or grasp. [Expert Home Vocals] added clearer information on gain staging, especially when using plug-ins, added more information on signal processing and in general added more explanations of possibilities to use plug-ins in different situations, such as recording group vocals, harmonies, and micing...What surprised me most was the amount of precise information included, as well as very helpful examples of using what is explained. Björgvin does an excellent job of explaining concepts, and uses “real world” situations to convey concepts. A well thought-out and planned resource!”

Pat Cycz
Musician/Studio Owner, Silver Moon Productions, Massachusetts.
"...this is an excellent course in one of the most important aspect of recording, getting the vocals right."
I like how in this course Björgvin goes through the whole process of recording vocals without skipping a beat, so to speak. He does not just talk about mic technique and mixing, although he has plenty of excellent tips on these subjects. He also talks about the importance of pre-production and making sure that the vocalist is comfortable in the studio, and how things that some engineers might not think about, like the lights, or the quality of the headphone mix can affect the mood and therefore the vocal performance. Overall this is an excellent course in one of the most important aspect of recording, getting the vocals right.

"I already used that Stereo Spread on the side chain last night and I like the results better than having it on the main channel's bus (like I've always done before).”
“I just realized that, especially considering you have focused SO much time on recording/mixing/producing, that there's GOT to be some golden nuggets I'm gonna get from this class to really make my vocals more amazing. My only doubt was whether I would really learn something new. Well, in the email you sent out where you showed an example of your vocal bus, using the Stereo Spread plugin as a side-chain had never occurred to me! So that convinced me that, as usual, I don't know what I don't know, and for $100 I'm gonna get better. Actually, I already used that Stereo Spread on the side chain last night and I like the results better than having it on the main channel's bus (like I've always done before).”

"great ideas on how to use eq and compression to make the vocals sit better in the mix. "
"…some really good tips in there. All from small things as how long from or how close to the microphone should you be singing, and what does the different positions mean to the audio sound and quality. There are also great ideas on how to use eq and compression to make the vocals sit better in the mix. Also more complex ideas like using side chaining on vocals is useful. I would say its and great overall guide that gives you an idea on how to record better vocals....you'll get some very great tips here."

"Before reading my mixes were dull and muddy. Thanks to this knowledge I have pulled them out of the muck and they sound more professional than ever."
“Your training bundle helped my mixes a lot! Two techniques that come to mind are subtractive EQ and the proper use of reverb. I am currently working on a project with 20 plus tracks, many in the mid zone of the EQ (several string tracks, piano and a few guitars clean and dirty). With the help of your books I have cleaned up most of the mud. Anyway thanks for sharing your recording knowledge with us...have helped my recordings immensely! Before reading this material my mixes were dull and muddy. Thanks to this knowledge I have pulled them out of the muck and they sound more professional than ever."

Frequently asked questions

What if I don't have time?
Expert Home Vocals does not require a huge time commitment but it will 100% improve the quality of your vocal productions. All you need are a few hours to go through the eBook and videos and you'll instantly have the knowledge you need to make better sounding vocals.
If you're booked with work, studies or other projects at the moment, you should still join the course today even if you're going to take it at a later date. I'm not sure when I'll offer it at such a big discount again and the course structure, bonuses or price may all be different at that point.
Do I need specific software or a special plug-in to take this course?
Not at all. Expert Home Vocals teaches you how to get great sounding vocals in your home studio regardless of what software you're using. You can follow the materials using whatever DAW you're most comfortable with and whatever equipment you have.
Can't I just find all this on Youtube?
You can certainly search for videos teaching you how to record, produce, edit and mix vocals, but no video will give you a comprehensive, step-by-step workflow like the workbook and video you get inside Expert Home Vocals. You're more likely to bounce from one video to another, learning a lot of random, contradictory techniques (and watching a lot of ads), instead of one method to make better mixes.
Is this for beginners or advanced engineers?
Expert Home Vocals teaches you the entire workflow for producing vocals, from start to end. It's aimed to teach beginners to advance to an intermediate level with complete production techniques. If you already know a little bit about recording vocals you'll get even more advanced workflow tips to help you make your vocals even better.
How is Expert Home Vocals delivered?

What if I don't learn anything new?
Expert Home Vocals includes everything I've learned in the last 15 years (from teenage bedroom to professional project studio) about producing vocals and I guarantee that it will teach you something new to improve your vocal sound. That said, if you don't think Expert Home Vocals taught you anything and you just didn't like the course at all for any reason, simply email me and I'll refund your entire order. If you're not happy, I'm not happy.
I only do [your genre of music here]. Will Expert Home Vocals help me?
Whatever genre you're working in, if you're recording, producing, editing and mixing vocals, Expert Home Vocals will help you out.
What questions are answered on the coaching call replay?
Here are all the questions I answer on the coaching call replay you can get as a part of the Plus package.
- "Regarding the Vocal Space Bus: why the compressor before the reverb?"
- "Are there typical frequencies that contain "room resonance" when recording vocals?"
- "Sometimes I get a phase-y sounding vocal recording. This happens only on a word here or there. It sounds like I've added saturation or some strange processing weirdness but when I solo the voice and bypass any processing, I still hear it. Any ideas?"
- "Listening to recordings from the 70s, I notice a big difference in the top end of the vocals...as if what we call "air" was rolled off. My vocals often feel not as round as the recordings I grew up with and I have a hard time striking a balance between the modern "airy" sound and the more silky, slightly more tucked in (or just lower in volume) roundness of my heroes"
- "Do you record directly into your mix template? You talk about getting the mix to sound pretty good before recording vocals."
- "What effect do you use in every mix? The ones you think "how much" instead of "if"?"
- "How does the Waves ADT plugin replace the L and R busses you use for Vocal Trick #3: Advanced ADT and Depth Without Space?"
How do the one-on-one coaching calls work?
If you choose the Private Custom Coaching Call option, you'll receive an email with the link to the coaching calls when you join the course. We will be using the Zoom video conference software and when you receive your invite to join the coaching call you will be prompted to download the Zoom software to your computer, or to download the app if you wish to join from your mobile and tablet.

"You write and teach in a way that completely makes the concept or the task easy to understand."
“I love your emails, really love them! I read them every week/day/when I get them. They always inspire me and I was struggling with a mix, wanted to quit music, you know how it is. And you know why? Because the way you teach is the same way you write those emails. You write and teach in a way that completely makes the concept or the task easy to understand. I just wanted to tell you that. Even though I have known these techniques for a while and are very familiar with them and I was looking for something more advanced, I found myself saying "wow, that's a great way to look at that" a lot...I think you are a great teacher and a great musician. Thank you for reminding me that I have at least grown a bit, but even more so, thank you for inspiring me and helping me to push forward, grow, organize, plan and to stay positive so many times through the writings in your emails. I really appreciate it!”
