Hello!

Hey Guys, I'm interested in owning an old Shure Vocal Master PA. I'm in the Houston area. Know where one or parts of one might be? I cant spend much, but shouldn't have to I wouldn't think.
Thanks
Harold

Hello,

I'm recording with Sonar and I'm using Waves L2 compressor for my vocals. I really like the sound I'm getting, except. I would like to be able to record at a little hotter level without having to worry about clipping. Since I don't have an outboard compressor I have to really dial in my input level so I can record at a decent level, and not clip.

when listening to a lot of songs, the vocals, especially in the chorus, sound natural but at the same time unnatural. they fill a lot of space and sound different enough to keep a lot of interest and focus on them. here are a few examples...

I am wondering about the RMS and peaks levels I should be hitting when recording vocals. I've seemed to gather from different sources that I should be anywhere around -24 to -18 RMS with peaks no more than -10. I would just like to hear other people confirm or reject this idea. Once the track has been recorded into Logic, I can make any other level changes ITB.

Hey everyone!

So I wanted to gather your thoughts on what singer Adam Young does to his vocals to achieve his sound for Owl City, which is not unlike Death Cab for Cutie.

if i was to choose a small hand full of decent vocal microphones for my new home project studio which ones should i get? under $500 is preferred. currently looking into the mxl v89 and the AKG 200.

i've recently understood that even a hot rodded vintage Neumann won't sound as good on say a certain female vocal than an mxl mic might. i understand it depends on so much.

Hello,

Which mic is better for R&B vocals? I wanna get the modern sound of R&B nowadays. So should I go for a M-audio Sputnik or AKG C414 B-XL II Condenser Microphone ? and what is a good firewire audio interface ton use? is a M-audio profire 610 a good one? thanks for the help.
