Hi, i just got a brand new vocal mic (at4047) and i love it. it sounds great. I want to get the best vocal sound thati am able to get, obviously.
I was wondering how many of you use a compressor before recording to avoid extreme level changes and to prevent clipping.
Say for instance if a vocalist is going from slightly soft vox to really loud maybe even screaming vox then back down.
my experience with this is that it clips so i turn it down. but then the lower singing isnt as crisp. and if they move away when they sing louder it loses that close to the mic sound.
anyways i guess im just wondering if that would be the solution to my problem? ive heard mixed things inthe past about it. but i just want it so it wont peak. a light compression maybe
thanks for your input.
