Hey guys. I'm looking for some pointers on how you process your vocals. Sometimes I have real trouble getting mine to sit in a mix and sometimes I even find they sound quite thin at the source which is obviously something I really need to take care of.

SO!

I would like to know from you pro types.

What kind of signal level do you use for vocal input ?

why are my recording so low? I'm trying to record some vocals i can hear myself pretty clear during the recording through the headphones but when i play it back it sound really low... I'm recording in mono at 32 bit I'm using adobe audition 3.. can you give me some advise on how can i fix it? thanks...

Hi! I roamed around the forum a bit, and I think it would be ok to ask for a help. So if there's a cooked answer already, just point me direction. But anyway.

Harmonies?
Doubled singing?
Chorus?

Combination of the above?

I've heard mixes with lots of layered vocals that sounded with a precision I think humans are unable to obtain. I know a well rehearsed group can do awesome things, but these recordings were so precise as to be "machined", sort of a "dynamics-tune" instead of "auto-tune".

Hey guys, quick question about recording in Pro Tools 9. I have a saffire pro 24 interface and when recording with an AKG 220 mic, the levels are fine but when looking at the waveform, it is extremely large. so yea. That is a picture of wat I'm speaking of. How do i make that look normal. it looks like its peaking but its not even that loud and i only had the gain on my saffire to 4.

How To Make Choir Sound with one Vocal
Is this possible?

I've been getting into composing my own songs and although I'm not a practised or very good vocalist, I get by. I have been recording a mate doing vocals and apart from the fact he's a far better singer than I could ever hope to be, I find his recorded vocals sound far better than mine. It's as though I make a better job recording him than I make recording myself.

Hi
Tasked with enhancing audio composed of interview vocals done with inexpensive lav. I'm using Adobe Audition currently.

Somewhat of a novice, these are the 4 effects I KNOW I need to apply.
