Alignment when Comping Vocals

Forums

Hey when comping vocals and there is a note that is a little late or a little early with respect to the beat, you want to shift that syllable so it's in line with the notes on the beat. I'm having trouble with this. Doing it by ear seems a little hit and miss. Is there a more scientific way to know if a particular vocal's syllable is aligned with a note on the beat?

Reel-to-reel and dbx 150 alignment

Hi guys,

I have to transfer some reel tapes to CDs. The tapes are dbx encoded and have a series of recorded tones. Are these tones for heads alignment only, or do they have something to do with dbx adjustment, as well? Also, I'd appreciate insights on proper dbx adjustment. I have all measuring equipment and know how to use it.

Thanks
