Hi friends
So i started to record a few demos of my song with a low cost gear i borrowd from my friend. A dynamic 'samson' mic and a chinese soundboard. Its good for now, im not looking to buy my own gear right now.
So..im having some troubles with trying to get that mellow, soft sound for my vocal recording. The best examples would be iron and wine, hose gonzales, and a bit don mclean.. i guess "muddy hymnal" by iron&wine is a great example. Unfortunatly i still can't post URL im here.
As you can hear it's very very smooth and 'nice' for listening. You can hear his breath and those little 'clicks' in his singing.
When i'm trying to record like this, im singing pretty close to the mic, straight towards it, but all im getting is a muddy, heavy sound.
Do you guys have any suggestions for me?
Maybe the mic placment is wrong?
What about compressing and normalizing?
Maybe i need a condenser mic?
Thank you very much!
