Hi guys!
Recently I have started improving my mixing and mastering skills with making beats. However, when it comes to vocal mixing I am still very weak. I know a lot of people are using Pro Tools with certain plugins, but my MacBook can't run this program due to too small disc space.
I am currently experimenting with Adobe Audition 6 on my old Windows laptop, because I used to use Adobe Audition when I was younger. And for that time, with no knowledge at all, I used to record quite nice vocals. But compared to the quality of vocals in rap music these days, my current mixdowns are... well... shit. I have viewed some tutorials on YouTube and it improved a bit, but still I am not pleased because I know it could be better with the hardware I have at the moment: MXL mic & extern sound card (? in Dutch it is called "geluidskaart" so this is literally the translation for it. I can't think of an other word at the moment. Hope y'all understand)
Now my questions are:
I am looking forward to your replies!! Just tryna get more feeling/knowledge about vocal mixing.

Now my questions are:
- What do you think is the best program to record & mix vocals with?
- Should I be able to get (nearly) studio quality vocal mixdowns with Adobe Audition if it's used right?
- Which program are you using for vocal recordings/mixdowns?
I am looking forward to your replies!! Just tryna get more feeling/knowledge about vocal mixing.
