Make vocal reverb sound good in mono

Forums

Hi Guys,

We spoke about the importance of checking a mix in mono recently in another thread and it made me think.
We all have our little recipe. I'm interested to read about how others do make sure the reverb on vocals don't partly disapear in mono.

Do you use a mono reverb + a stereo reverb ? Any panning or doubling technics or just put the level higher ?

How do professional songwriters translate their written vocals to the clients?

This is what I've done so far:
- I've written lyrics that I'm happy with (text + notes for each word + characteristics for the lines).
- I've layed out the melody as a fake piano ontop of the instrumental track.
- I've analyzed what's the most practically useful method of recording, to minimize the amount of vocal tracks to be working with.

Acoustic wall treatment or portable vocal booth (i.e. Auralex MaxWall)?

I would like to start recording vocals (just for fun/hobby) and I want to get the best sound possible. The instrumental tracks have already been mixed, I just need to add vocals. I've read some of the threads here, and I know that preventing unwanted reflections is ONE of the key elements paramount to a good recording.

Best DAW for creating conservative, Christian backgrounds for vocals.

Forums

I am brand new at recording and have recorded a few Christian songs (with a pre-recorded accompaniment track) of my 11 year old granddaughter singing. They actually turned out quite professional sounding, even as commented by another recording studio owner. I used Garageband for that. I also have Mixcraft 6, but haven't used it much.
