I have a question, no engineer here just trying to record my compositions, musical instruments no problem at all, but when it comes to vocals I am beating my head against the wall. I use Reaper, interface is RME Babyface Pro, USB connection, and have tons of computer memory.
if I record a soft lower tone vocal they are fine, but if I push at all there are edges on the vocal. I know it may not make a lot of sense, but that is the only way I know how to explain it.
question is this, am I missing something in the setup of the interface in regards to making it the best it can be?
one more thing, I have a Tascam DP-24 track, and the vocals do not sound this way on it, very confusing to me. I have in some cases recorded the vocal on the DP and moved the WAV files to my computer, but I bought this RME thinking that would resolve my issue.
my MIC is an AKG 414
