Ok so here is the deal. I don't really have a tremendous amount of experience recording vocals. What little i do have i have usually spent a lot of time getting the best possible input signal as i can. One project that just came up on the weekend was a last minute idea and i really only have one night to get some vocals done. That night being tomorrow night. For a few hours.
This doesn't sit overly well with me so i had an idea, and maybe it isn't new and "everybody's doin' it!!" , but it is a new to me idea!
Can i record the vocals raw, no input effects at all? Making sure there is no clipping and buddy nails his performance, and then later on in the week, reamp that track or use a send to another track for processing? I mean i know i can, the technology is there, but will i be sacrificing anything? I guess that is the big question. Theoretically weather i do it that way or record it with all my plugins from the get go it shouldn't make a difference should it? Maybe some compression on input to tame the high peaks?
All i would be doing is saving the set up and tweaking time at start up ? Can someone confirm -or- correct me if i am wrong here.
Thanks you classy Cats and Kittens!
