I am new to this forum, and I have found it to be a breathe of fresh air... From the few posts I have read I sense a high level of experience and expertise..
Here is my situation:
I currently am working with Nuendo with the US-428 and the Echo Layla 20. I have completed an album about two months ago and let people hear it... I first let just general Hip Hop Fans listen and I got rave reviews. I then took to a studio I use to work at to get some of the engineers and producer opinions.. I got good reviews on the production (instrumentals) but sub par reviews on the vocals... (Thinny and lack of presence)
You may sample some of this at http://mp3.com/blak (Please take a listen to get a clear idea of my problem)
I currently record my vocals with a Marshall MXL 1006 into Art Tube MP to Alesis Nano Compressor which then goes into the US-428 analog input. I am considering up grading my Microphone chain to ...
Marshall MXL 1006 - stays
Avalon M5 - Replaces Art MP
Apogee Digital Rossetta A/D - Replaces the a/d in the US-428
With this set up I will be going into the US-428 SPDIF in.
What kind of results should I expect? How professional will my vocals become with this investment?
Thanks for your time...
