Hey guys.
I haven't seen this topic discussed much, but how would you go about mixing a male baritone with a female soprano?
The male is the lead, the female is singing harmony at the same time (so kind of like a dual lead, but she's further back and singing a 5th and 6th higher).
To get the female to be audible yet not override the lead vocal, what would you do?
So far I have used more compression than I usually do, thinking it would tame her peaks and make her sit better, and then a little reverb. Is there anything else? Would you EQ more low end off to make her sound more distant?
I like how it sounds right now, but I'm wondering if anyone has tips to offer, etc. One thing I'm not sure about is panning. I have her panned slightly (10) left and like it, but I'm wondering if there's something better to do.
