Sometimes I wonder why I bother recording....

[Dr. Sausage]

Two songs i recorded this weekend.. The same problems always exist. I feel that the songs are decent, but once it gets the the singing its awful. I need a real singer.

hey bro ,

This is cool ,

I would add that the vox is not bad just too much verb and

fx ,

I think it would sound good with some dry (er) vox

keep kicking out the jams

I NEED THE DELAY

Is the vox track just one track of delay? If so, how about making another track of that vocal and keeping that one dry. Try a micing distance how you normally do it and try it with some distant micing. i just received the new tapeop and Larry made a comment pertaining to this. it might help out.

cheers,

The bird song I had the dry vocal then the delayed at about 80ms at about 70 percent volume. The other song is dry. I sung it at 2 in the morning not to be loud with my parents sleeping, hence why I have the telephone tones because I had to cut out all the awful bass. I'll just have to rerecord it eventually. Why must vocals be the most difficult part of recording!!!! Oh thats right.... because I suck.

I agree that the vox would sound fine with a different approach to the mix.

More importantly: click track

I did, but i used my drum machine live rather than programming the parts.

edit: I took out the slapback, and compressed the hell out of the vocals. The distortion in the vocals was there before, but now with the compression it's even more prevalent. >_<
