What is it with RV Audio Heads and Effects?
 

Seriously. I just listened to a bunch of tracks since i can now im at college. And shit, some of you go over the top.

Why. I dont get it.

I mean like an extreme amount of reverb, or too many ad libs, or anything thats as loud as the verse.

I dunno, it just ruins a couple of songs.

Yeah, i think its to cover the fact of bad quality and try and make it sound a little more "professional".

what ppl dont realise, pre-sets are a huge no no

nd wat works for sum ppl doesnt work for others... reverb actually doesnt work with my voice, there is only the odd beat here n there that ive needed to use an extremely light reverb to help it blend better.... ive also noticed most ppl here cant EQ for shit.

but i kno wat u mean distilled... i hate listening to a song only to hear like a robot or a million echoes rapping and hearing the reverb from 2 - 3 lines before where i am

u think its bad now??????? lmfaoo maaaaan kids back in the day used to straight synth there voices cuz they were afraid of there own voices being heard of .........but all in all i think alot of kids try and find there mixing nitch hear something now that sounds good ...only to listen a month from now and see they overdosed it

I've always said people use too much Reverb and Echo on vocals


I don't use reverb on anything except Chorus vocals


For my verses, I use my bare voice and jus DUB the voice...only processin is with Noise Redux and EQ to raise the 16k


tiz all

u dont compress ur vocals??? u need compression to stop vocal volume fluctuating... i dont really reverb anything(really depends on the beat)

even my hooks arent reverbed... i do 2 takes and put them over each other, pan 1 to the left n one to the right(usually 80 each way) match the volumes up and then do overdubs

Yea...I compress my vocals

I have a whole process for my vocals and hooks


and I only reverb my hook when Im singing...

My shit sounds fine

well lets see here

Right now I record with, a Rode NT1,Some tight ass Compressor,Mixer,Studio Headphones,Pro Tools,So once we get our songs done I will upload um.... U cant preview the quality at www.untamed360.com thats gonne be our website


OOO YEAH!!

paradox productions mixes our stuff

but yeah word judge it if ya want :love:

shit...judge my latest track "All Praise" if you want...my quality is pretty coo

shhut up distilled. :(

Exactly Leady.

And Q sometimes dubbing sounds just as bad. You dont need to sound like your rapping twice, in an empty arena. Vocals can do just fine a lot of the time

EVERY song has over-dubs.... but, sum make them more noticeable than others, jus cos u dnt allways hear them dnt mean they aint there

but most people here dont know how to align properly and arent willing to put in the time to do it properly

distilled wat did u think of my dubbin and shit???? over done or wat?

Nah fux yours was good, you were a little quiet thats all i meant about the mixdown.

New shts gonna be ill from you.

And Leady depends what you mean by overdubs. Cos desk wise the why i speak it, every track doesnt have overdubs.

lmao i dont even kno how to use efex:( i need tipz on fadin an shit

some do yea, it's really just the little things that change the sound good. some cats over do it. but really some effects only sound good on special tracks depending on how you want your track to hit. ya know, but a lot of people go over on with the ecko's I noticed.

Then theres people liek you, that just flat out suck.

Oh no, someone needs pussy.

You dont even know what pussy is moron.

And dont come at me with that 'mature' shit. Your what, 12?

Go play in the sandbox or something. Fucking faggot.

i got my new mic workin.... but im too lazy to redo the first verse of my new song (which i did with a comp mic)

over-dubs, like recording lines n phrases to back up the main vocals and put more emphasis on certain parts

Says the kid who is a virgin :rolleyes:

Ohhhhh, you mean ad libs. I get ya.

You dont always need em tho. Emotional verses go much better without a lot of the time.

adlibs are different.. u know wen u listen to a track n u hear the shouting n sound effects in the background of verses e.t.c thats an adlib

Isnt that what you just said.

When you hear stuff like a gun shot/helicopter etc, that aint an ad lib.

When you say a word at the end of a bar to back it up, or somehing to do with whatever you just said. thats an ad lib.

thats an overdub not an adlib... trust me, ask producers n shit who make a damn good living from what they do :thumbup:

Or dont have the first clue about how too.

Yeah thas me lol.

overdubs are like what eminem always does...where he says certain words twice at the same time to put more emphasis on them...

adlibs are like when young jeezy always goes "yeeeeeeeeah" in the background while hes rapping...

atleast im not the only one who knows the difference lol

^^^what r u using for ur input???

lol...i use a socom navy seals headset but my quality is surprisingly good considering i only use cool edit pro 2.0

errrrm, nah.

Depends how ou talk. If your overdubbing in the studio, it has to with bus the signal coming through one channel to another channel, and overdubbing it.

That 'Yeeaaaah' Is Young Jeezy's version of ad libs. If you rap it allagain its overdubbing, but picking a word and sayin shit about it. Thats adlibs.

Thing Is I HAVE To Use Over-Dubs To Make my VOice Sound Half Decent,If I Dont I Jus Feel My Tracks Get Totally Ruined

Fuck My Voice:(

so ur basically the same as wat i said before and opposite to wat u said lol
