I have a quick question I need help with please. Lets say I have an instrumental track in the works with about twelve tracks and I now want to record vocals. Is it best to record right into that same session with the beat, or is it better to bounce the instrumental to a .wav and start a new session and throw it onto its own audio track?
I tried both and the vocals sound so much better when i just put the .wav form of the beat on its own audio track in a separate session than the actual instrumental session. The only problem with this is when I want to change the beat up a bit or make adjustments according to little breaks in the vocals or what ever, I have to close session, open the beat session up, make adjustments where I wanted, bounce it to .wav, and than put the updated beat into the other session.
Is there a way around this, like run both session at once so I can record and make adjustments to the beat Im making? Or do I have to record vocals in the instrumental session itself? Someone said something about running a "two track" but I didn't quite understand.
In conclusion, what is the best way to record vocals on an instrumental track being made in protools. Not an .mp3 or .wav instrumental, an actual file of an instrumental with its own session and tracks.
