No you see , stuff like this is just MSM lies . Whereas pizzagate is 100 % CONFIRMED TRUE <| sep |> Wubba lubba dub dub ! <| sep |> Depends on what you want to do . I would always prefer having the individual vocal and instrument tracks available , just for flexibility . I might want to sidechain just the lead vocal to one of the instruments or vice versa . But it ' s totally up to you ! Regarding the mastering , that ' s a good idea ! A lot of people bounce the track to . wav and master that audio file to clearly seperate the mixing from the mastering process . Again , I don ' t usually do that . I like to be very flexible and found that the way of doing it didn ' t change the outcome for me . Regarding the vocal processing Stack compressors , use a deesser if necessary , eq , use delay sparely , depending on the genre you migh want to duck the reverb .
