    Using two compressors, yes or no

    The vocal is very crispy and hot - which is a sound - were you trying for that? Were the vocals on the same vocal chain? the mix is quite different.[/MEDIA][/LIST]

    Using two compressors, yes or no

    You are running a Mic PreAmp into a Compressor into a 2i2 Mic Preamp? Would you post a clip of this signal chain in action?

    Mixers and Home Recording

    My crowd talks about the Plates and Chambers - the Studio Acoustics - the Mics - Compressors - in context - they captured the sound - but it was the engineers who shined with techniques - there wasn’t a lot of dodads to get noises - they had to be very creative - and simple things made a...

    Using two compressors, yes or no

    I use two Logic compressor - The Studio Fet @ 1.4/1 and the Vintage Opto also @ 1.4/1 - The Studio Fet is an emulation of a Urei 1176LN Blackface while the Vintage Opto is based on the Teletronix LA-2A - they are really neat and musical in combination - and barely touching the signal - but it...

    Be careful with resource-heavy plugins while tracking

    All the time - I did it on the my latest Dear John release - I had a ton of things going on - now on my older Intel MacBook Pro - I had to freeze tracks and use Low Latency mode all the time - not on my Silicon MacBook Pro.

    Be careful with resource-heavy plugins while tracking

    I’m not sure I understand - what do you mean tracking & monitoring through a plugin? I put a series of plugins on a vocal track - EQ -Tube EQ - Exciter - 2 Compressors , DeEsser etc.. Then I buss to a Compressor track and a Reverb Track - I am using Logic Pro - there is no noticeable latency in...

    Be careful with resource-heavy plugins while tracking

    Well my record is 80 tracks with plugins - the laptop didn’t even blip the tiniest bit - BTW Are you talking about A-Console the API 1604 emulation? I’ve never used it - but it doesn’t seem resource heavy -

    'The Mirror Lies' (Doom Prog?)

    I. know what you mean - vocals - especially in this genrre of music - are very hard to place right.

    Be careful with resource-heavy plugins while tracking

    Or many of us have super powerful computers with substantial Ram - Macbook Pro M4 Max 48gb ram 2 tb SSD - I haven’t been able to overwhelm the Laptop yet.

    I have the Abbey Road Plates and Chambers plugings - they sound to me fairly close - have you used them?

    'The Mirror Lies' (Doom Prog?)

    Kind of a House of Holy vibe in there. Its interesting and engaging - I think you could level the vocals better and give them a little sonic space.

    There is a slightly thick doubling sound that modulates - was that done with a plugin or in the recording of the vocals?

    Mixers and Home Recording

    The Beatles recorded Abbey Road on a EMI TG12345 transistorized mixing console - it definitely had a sound - but the 60’s vibe is much more than the recording consoles, tape machines, compressors, plates and chambers - it’s what the musicians brought to the table - the way the events of the...

    Good work - you shaped your vocal differently - would you share what you’ve done?

    Chandler Limited TG L

    I have a MXL V67G - I wouldn’t say it’s colored - I would say it’s hyped in the High end - with a steady rise and then drop from 1.5 Khz to about 15 Khz - - without EQ the V67G will never sound close to the U87ai and nothing like the ELA M 251 - The Chandler Limited TG L as you know doesn’t...

    Chandler Limited TG L

    I’ve several partners who use this mic - It’s good sounding - but no where near the replacement Chandler wants to tout it as - for instance on guitar I tend to want a particular sound and this Chandler can’t give it - or at least my partners recording guitar was not spectacular - I wouldn't...

    Hooking up a Behringer SX3040

    I think you can dump the tracks via USB to Audacity - I would forgo using the Behringer SX3040 and get the Slate Digital Fresh Air Exciter - it’s free and it’s a plugin which you can use in Audacity - might not be old school analog - but it will do the job quite well - and you could bump the...

    Multiple Vocal Tracks

    I didn’t notice it at the time But I think I just shifted the vocals without listening to the guitar - that is embarrassing as all get out. Here is the corrected one.
