... i've been experimenting with recording vocals w/o compression using the following technique:
i put up a condensor mic on one track running as hot as i can w/o fear of clipping, and i have a dynamic mic next to it, running to a second track. i sing the verses, or quieter passes on the condensor, and when i get to a loud pass, or chorus, i turn slightly and belt on the dynamic. the end result is a stereo vocal track of sorts, where i use just the condensor track for the softer verses, and when i belt on the loud sections or chorus, i get a good level on the dynamic, with a slightly ambient vocal on the condensor track that i can blend in.
i'm wondering if anyone has tried this sort of thing, or has any other ideas in this vein to pass along.
thanks - jv
