Ok,
So I have a good voice but not great. On stage I'm fine. Good projection clear on pitch usually. I'm having a hell of a time getting anything down on tracks that I like.
I've been trying a Sennheiser MD421(?) it a dynamic mic, I know a condenser would be better. It sounds thin and tinny with a pre and compression laying down the tracks.
In fact I'm generally having problems with anything I lay down with a mic. I can't get a clear full and rich acoustic guitar sound either, damn. I've tried the twelfth fret position, nothing but harsh. My Martin should sound better.
Is it the mic? Also, If you had just one Plugin besides the usual, compression/eq/verb, what would it be. My vocals need a kick in the ass. If I could hear them sounding good I think I would sing with much more confidence during recording.
The best they ever sound to me is when I've used compression on top of compression at the final mix stage.
Thanks,
Rusty K
