Hey everybody. I'm rapping up mixes for a CD project and am trying to get that sheen on the lead VOX. Working in Logic Platinum 5.5.1 here is my current vocal chain in order: Compressor>De-esser>EQ>RubyTube(Tube emulation). Where would I typically want to add an exciter? I'm thinking before or after the EQ.

This is going to sound like a complete joke to most of the people on the forum but I would like some advice before a purchase a new mic.

Hi,

I need your advice please.. :?

What is the best setting to use the Avalon AD2022 Preamp for vocal recording with Neumann M149 Tube Mic ?

Thanks

Hi
I was wondering... if I use a few samples from Loleatta Holloway's accapella "Love Sensation". Then from where can I get copyright to it for publishing my own song with her vocal samples on CD or vinyl.
I couldn't find anything from the web.

Thanx

I didn't know if I should put this in the Vocal Booth or not. .move it if you wish.

Hi i wanted to know if anyone had any tips on vocal recording with cool edit.. I Have a lowend Pro mic, an art tube preamp and a standard computer sound card. The problem is i cant get my vocals to sound right. They always sound a little tin canish? are there any effects i can use to make my recordings sound more natural?
Thanx

In the Santana song Smooth, Rob Thomas sings the lead vocal. It has a little sound to me of a through a megaphone quality and some other aspects to it I cant describe well (maybe a 2nd vocal slightly delalyed?). If you have heard that song, what are you
thoughts on how to replicate the characteristics of the vocal?

I love the sound of the vocals on old standard records,
such as those recorded by Frank Sinatra, Ella fitzgerald,
etc. I am looking to invest a modest $$$ amount($1500-$2500) in a new microphone and preamp / compressor, that would help me to get that full bodied, warm, yet clear sound that can be right up front in a mix..

G'day All,

Stumbled on this site a couple of days ago in desperate search for help with recording, Metal Vocals.

Which is most likely to work the vast majority of singers -
U99b, E47 or ElUX?
THANKS.
