Who-Do-You-Put-Your-Trust-In - Soundback.co.uk

When it comes to getting an opinion on what is a good sounding vocal who can you trust to give to the right advice. Obviously if you have a large budget and know someone you can afford an experienced and high profile producer that will in my opinion be able to reference your vocal against the quality of previous artists he has worked with and give a respected opinion that you can trust. What if you cannot afford that or maybe have never had contact with anyone at that level where do you go for help. I have a suggestion,listen to your self,CAREFULLY WITH FOCUS and with the object of improving the quality of your vocal also feel if it is right when you are singing,if when you sing there is a note or phrase that does not come out as you want it to work with it until you can feel good about it when you are performing it. I will be leaving this blog as ongoing so ask a question or make a comment for me to respond to.

Continuation of last post - "Backing Tracks At Soundback"

It makes sense that if you can find a microphone that by it's nature eliminates those frequency's you wish to avoid being heard then it is worth the time and effort in tracking it down. With the knowledge that there are so many Mic's available there must be one that works for you. In studios with big budgets normally there will be much of a selection but in studios with small budgets this is not the case and when you are recording your vocal onto backing tracks it's normally the later. My conclusion.I cannot suggest a microphone for you but I hope the fact that I have brought it to your attention that might just help save you money on mixing time and a better sounding vocal is achieved.

What You Want To Hear In A Mic - "Patrick@soundback.co.uk"

In my last post I left the question how to find the right Mic for you. As I have stated before with many years of experience behind me I believe I might have some good advice on the matter so here goes. It's mainly about frequency's that you voice projects when singing. Those singers with full range natural vocals really don't have to much to worry about as long as the mic is of a resonable quality but some of us have good sounding vocals that become spoilt with certain poor sounding frequency's that we cannot avoid escaping from our mouths. So it is those frequency's we want to avoid coming out off the speakers at the end of the recording system, engineers can do much with equalisation but it is best that those nasty frequency's are avoided in the first place. to be continued
