Hello all. I am still very new to all this, but I'm using an MXL 990 mic wit NADY phantom power, XLR to 1/8 on a realtek ALC892 sound.
Sonar 8 producer

I am new here so please be gentle as my question(s)/explanations may seem silly ;o)

I have recorded many tracks but haven't had a problem like this until now.
When i record my vocals in my studio, they sound great, on my computer (desktop) and on my Studio Speakers. it also sounds great in my car. But when i play them back on my Mac book or our local radio station, we cant hear the vocals. does anybody know an easy fix for this problem?

I'll be honest, I'm not particularly well-versed when it comes to this stuff so even though I'm going to try and be as specific as possible, I'm sure I'll probably leave out a ton of necessary info. Here's my problem...

For hip hop vocals:

Right now I got:
1.Compression
2. EQ
3. Ad libs
4. Reverb
5. Pan

Anything else I'm missing?

Also, does the order matter with Compression and EQ? Is it more advantageous to do 1 before the other?

Thanks A lot :smile:

That's the way it sounds to me.. can I get a confirmation?
(btw do you think they do a real double tracking or a delay tracking thing?)

I'm not a great vocalist... in fact I'm not even average but I get by. I write my songs, record them and when it comes to doing the vocals, with a bit of reverb and a touch of delay, can usually disguise the worst with a few harmonies thrown in. My Shure SM58 and ART pre-amp between them good enough for my needs.

I have been searching for the vocal sound I want to record and I have finally found it, but don't know how to attain it.

To hear what I'm looking for, listen to the song "Old Man. ." by "I Can Make A Mess Like Nobody's Business." A link is provided below
