hello here is my situation
i have
Shure ksm 27 mic
Yamaha O1v Digital Mixer
and hte prob is my vocal sings rock and when he screams the sounds becomes ugly like the sound of clipping but i used compressor on the mixer so the signel is under 0 db but still sounds like clipping when he screams

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.

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.

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,
