hi, i was wondering if anyone had any mic recomendations or techniques for capturing low end vocals.

Hi, I have an AKG C414 and I was considering selling it to buy a Neumann U87. I record Hip Hop and Mostly RnB and I use my Mics with an Avalon 737 sp.
1. would you recommend the U87 for RnB vocals or is there a better mic for this purpose in the same price range.

Looking for comments on gating/expanding
while tracking vocals?

Thanks in advance for the input! - jrmixman :D

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

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

Hello I'm a newbie to this forum & I would like suggestions & help with my vocals.

Can some one help me with getting a good mix out of Cubase SE? I'm using that and the MOTU 868 mkII and it works great for recording but I just can't seem to get it mixed down to sound "good".

I was wondering if there was anyone with experience out there, that I could send the file to, and have you put a the effects and everything to it, and then let me know what you did?

So, last night, I recorded a scratch vocal track using a Nady Powerstar-9 mic which went through my Behringer mixer into my fostex digital 8-track.

After recording the scratch vocal track, I wanted to do a quick mix down of everything. But, I couldn't get the vocals to blend well with the rest of the instruments, distorted guitar, drums.

Anyone here know what was used to cut the softer vocals on this album? I'm digging the presence and richness.

Hi, I need a new mic for recording vocals and guitar and figured there must be a well-priced large-diaphram codenser that will work for both. The amp set up is basically a Mesa rectifier through a 4x12 recto cab.
