Hello All,
I used to plug microphone directly into my laptops built in Audio jack which sounded just horrible. So I purchased an MXL 990 microphone and M-Audio Fast Track USB Audio Interface which increased the quality greatly. When I lay down a vocal track over whatever intrumental parts I have, the vocals sound pretty amateur still. While I am not a world renound singer, I can tell the difference between a bad vocals and a recording issue.
When I hear some professionally recorded songs by other artists, I always wonder how they get that clear quality vocal sound. Also, I suspect I might be mixing intrumentals poorly with my vocals. I play with all sorts of effects (compression, gating, EQ) but can't figure it out.
I would love to be able to send a clip of one of my songs to be analyzed by someone who can help out. Thanks
