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.

depends on who you're talking about...

some people use more effects because their quality is bad and it clears up your vocals, just uses effects on 'em as well as a result of the initial "efects"...it all depends on the kind of song, the beat and so on N so on...you can't really just say too many people be ODin' on effects in general like that

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

Tha Q. 01-04-06 12:29 PM

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

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
