Whats your vocal editing process?
 

So for the small pockets of time I get to record latly.. I been messing round with loads of settings and filters to try and tweak my set up to get the best sound possible.. But I'm not ill at it yet...

What I'm doing at the moment consists of Noise reduction, dynamics processing, antaries mic modeler set to AKG3000, normalising.. A 'tight and close' reverb usually and the occaisional graphic & parametric equalising filter before I mess with the high, medium and low eq levels and do a click/pop eliminator filter...

I dunno whether thats good/bad/toomuch.. I guess thats partly what I'm here to find out...

So whats your process?

I think I sent you mine in a notepad file. word.

Word.. That file you sent me is basically my process, cept I added a few steps n changed some things jus slightly...

Download Waves Plugin

And When You Get It use Noise Reduction

Then On Waves go To

C4

4 Band Noise Reducer

Then
C4 Again
Click
2 Band Noise Reducer

Then C1-Comp

Click HF Noise Reducer

Then C1

Go To Gates
Then Classic Gate

Then DO Your Normal Vocal Editing After

I record my vocals in MONO

mix down

I run "Amplify Center Wave"
then,
Run Noise Redux, settings at 95/40

Run Click/Pop eliminator

after that
I convert back to STEREO
Then, I run a "De-esser" that's in a Wave Platinum Plug in called "Male Wide" de-esser

Then, I run a compressor on it in Dynamic Processing, settings are from the "Alcatraz" process

After that, I run graphic EQ "vocal boost" on it, but from the "Alcatraz Process"

Then, I "NORMALIZE" my vocals under "AMPLITUDE/NORMALIZE"...settings at 80 (70-80 is good)

Finally, I amplify once more 2-3 decibels


I save that file. Then, in Multitrack, I adjust the EQ to (H) 4-5, Lo (1.2) and M (-2.4)


That's for my MAIN vocals...

I have other processes for my dubbed verse and my hook

i record my voice and paste it on a beat no editing no nothing

Thats retarded..

May I ask ...why?

Oh shit thats straight gangsta.....


Im using the one you said a long time ago Nostradamus and i add more stuff into it with it

cuz i'm straight gangsta cant ya read

Well being 'straight gangsta' must be an excuse for stupidity...

Because conciously choosing not to mix your vocals properly is just dumb.....

LMMFAO ROFL :laugh2:

HMM I used this on a Computer mic and make it sound like a condenser

1.Noise Reduction - use noise reduction....select a part of the wave with nothin on it and press record. Then go to noise reduction then get profile from selection Then click OK. Then select where your vocals are on the wave select them then do noise reduction on them

2.Dynamics Processing - Chose the one that sounds the best. play it by ear

3.Pan/Expand - Mastering With

4.Reverb - Tight and Close or Nice Pressence

5.Graphic Equalizer - You gotta play it by ear again

6.Parametric Equalizer - You gotta play it by ear again

7.COOL EDIT WAVES - RCL Compressor play it by ear again

8.Click/Pop Eliminator - go too get profile from selection and then click ok
