less dramatic vocals

[e unum pluribus]

my vocal range is out of control sometimes (ok most of the time) i ve got a very wide vocal range but all that does is give me more beast to tame...

this usually ends up making me sing in all spectrums the vocal rainbow. is there a way to make your vocals sound less dramatic (micing or singing technique)???

Don't sing all over the place. There's no plug-in that's going to make you sing less notes.

When you say dramatic...do you mean softs are hard to hear, and louds are way out there? Compression can help a little with that, but as Rami stated, this won't fix it all. Good vocal technique is required.....and I can't help with that, as I suck myself...

I will say...practice. That will help you immensely. The stuff posted on your My Space site doesn't sound bad at all. Compression might help a little, as will just learning the mic. El Mirrar is actually very good vocally.

I will often track the loud parts and soft parts seperately.

Also, you can try backing away, and facing away a bit from the mic when you sing loud, them compress the living hell out of the vocal afterwards.

Pluribus - Listen to the song you're singing, the music, the lyrics. In most cases there's something that wants to be conveyed. Sometimes that is served by singing "in all spectrums the vocal rainbow", but more often it's not. Try to close your eyes and feel the vibe of the song, and emote the meaning and mood of the lyrics. Don't sing over the song, be the song.

i find the facing away changes the sound more than i like.
