I just got an MBox for PC and I got a MXL V67 mic. Whats the best way to record rap vocals? What are the best levels as some of my instrumentals come in close to 0db?

Hi all,

I am trying to record vocals and acoustic guitar simultaneously, using only two microphones and two-track recording and still get a good stereo result (for musical reasons, I much prefer to play and sing at the same time, rather than do each separately).

Does anyone have any ideas or methods regarding death metal vocals? I'm talking about the guttural growling and screaming that bands like Cannibal Corpse have. Any effects that are commonly used? Or mic choices and EQing suggestions?

Hi,

To make a long story short... I was recently on a forum where someone stated that they were having problems getting a good sound recording vocals with a Shure sm57... a few replies offered different mic suggestions, but a few also suggested a better preamp...

Is is possibe to record these two sources (stereo keyboard sequence/vocals via condenser mic) AT THE SAME TIME direct into my duplex sound card?

Equipment available:
*Dell p4 2.4g
*Turtle Beach Santa Cruz soundcard (has 2 inputs...line-in and probably crap-ola mic input)
*Marshall V67 LD condenser mic
*Joemeek V3CQ
*Cool Edit Pro 1.0
