recording vocals...PLEASE HELP!

I just recently purchased Sonar 3 and man is it worlds beyond cakewalk pro 9! I am curious about how to rocord vocals. Should I be using my compressor at all or should I just use the noise gate, and let sonar's eq and compressor work for me. What frequencies should I boost in order to get that airy sound from my condensor and how close should I be to the mic when recording.

Separating Vocal Soloists from Orchestra

One enduring "problem" I wrestle with, (apart from digital audio theory ) is the one of where to position vocal soloists to get separation when recording them with orchestra.

We have tried sessions with them up the back behind the percussion with cardioid spots, nulls back to orch, but they complained that the image of the conductor in their binoculars was too small.
