Whenever i've done hip hop Vocals in the past they didn't sound like they were inside the song. They sounded more like they were hovering above the music and you could tell they were pasted on. I record on my computer with a shure sm58, we had it running through a mackie mixing board, and we used logic audio to compress it and added reverb. I have to admit the songs they were placed in were total crap, and i have some theories as to why the didn't sound in the song, but i thought i'd see if any of you guys had experienced this before and if you knew how to fix it. One thing i thought it might be was because the songs were horrible and lacked a basslines, so they were very hollow and poor quality. Or maybe because we are used to the sound of our own voices and that made it sound like it was outt of place a bit. Anyways we've been making a lot better music now and my friend has purchaced a roland sp808 ex, and we are learning a lot more about production, but when we record again id like it to sound very good and inside the song. If your flow is'nt very good or off could that be it? Because we are ammatures, just startin out. Anyways, we also need a preamp because we had to take back the mackie board (it was a bottom of the line mackie mixing board btw) and we were thinking of the ART tube MP studio. Any sugesstions or help on the preamp, or the setup, or filters and effects, or levels, or anything that would help us id really apriciate any responses. Thanks in advance.
