What's up F.P. fam...been quite some time since i been on here, but I was curious to hear the general consensus of what everyones approach is for when it comes to recording vocals in a session with your artist (or yourself if that applies) .
- Do you add some inserts to your mic input b4 the recording ?
-Do you only do some light Eq'ing and then add your vocal process and effects after you've recorded into your daw?
-Do you create FX tracks and add sends to your mic input b4 after recording?
I tried to search this on FP forums, but seeing as though this question has been asked by several ppl and may not have been direct I thought this might be one of those threads that might b posted at the top and resolve alotta questions for the masses!
I definitely can agree there's no certain way to go about recording/mixing your vocals, but there definitely are some standards we all should go by when it comes down to recording a session. the usual approach that I've learned over the time and this is in no specific order is for you to : apply noise gate, eq or parametric your vocals, compression, de-esser, enhancer or exciter, reverb, and delay...and in some circumstances pitch correction.
When I have a session with an artist I usually do some light EQ to the mic inputs channel to get a fairly decent level and after it's recorded I add all the others I mentioned before. FP family, what's your approach on mixing vocals for a nice post production mix ?
my DAW is cubase 5 and I produce rap/hip-hop pop/club and some RnB , so if I don't sound like a seasoned veteran on here, don't judge me. we're all on here to gain knowledge and share ideas or theory that may be of assistance to the next person. Peace an Positive Energy
