Recording and mixing Thrash Vocals

We are trying to record vocals and would like them to sound like: kill'em all - AJFA, Killing is my Business - Rust in peace.

I am mostly interested in techniques, and how to make vocals sit in the mix, some typical approaches for this style etc. I know that they probably doubled them, used some delay, reverb, possibly some flanger phaser chorus... who knows... So please help.

mixing doubled vocals

Hello, I am recording a song that's has the attitude of Foo Fighters' songs, sort of. The singer has a strong voice but it's 100% clean. There is no growl in his performance. We want to double or triple the main melody to make his vocals sound thicker. Is there any effect that can be added to the vocals to enhance the rock attitude? How should I pan these tracks?

thank you guys!

How to truly record/mix vocals into music properly?

I have so many questions, I don't know where to start. But I mainly want to know how should I properly "mix" or blend in the vocals with the music. I usually just record karaoke/instrumental tracks where I have the music as one track and the vocals as another. Currently, I'm using Adobe Audition. I have the music file on the first track and the vocals on the second track.

Mixing two coloratur sopranos

I'm new to the recording art. I've been recording a coloratur soprano that doesn't use much vibrato. I recorded two voices for a duet with the same soprano. At times she would get her voice to be more resonant (a characteristic of coloratur sopranos I guess). When that happens within a voice that is part of a duet I would get weird intermodulation with the other voice.

Mixing Vocals overtop of Instrumentals... Help!

Sort-of-quick question...

I've been recording some mixtape cuts for a local rap group...
And basically they take instrumentals off of vinyl, or from mp3 format, and they freestyle over top of it.

I know its not easy to get a great sound off of this since i have no control of the instruments seperately... the instrumental is just in stereo L-R form.
