Possibly (more like probably...) due to my hideous pseudo-baritone voice (not nice...), my latest vocal recording is a little lifeless. I've added a little reverb, which helped to make it a little more musical, but it's not quite where I want it. I've copied the vocal track and hard panned the two tracks to opposite channels, and added EQ to get more "ooomph" in there. I also using the VOXENGO Old school reverb plug-in for a little sparkle. Noo-bad (as Coco would say). However, there's still "something" not quite there. Does anyone know of a plug-in (remember I am cheap! So FREE is always my fave price..lol), that's an absolute marvel with lifeless vocals?
I know the old maxim: Crap in/Crap out; and I'm doing my best to sing right, and get a nice signal, but I'm just looking for a little more "something."
Rest of the track is starting to sound nice (after a thousand takes, and re-recording, and dismantling the "wall of sound" million guitars etc.), and trying to adhere to the KISS principle.
Also, where do you usually put the snare in EQ frequency? I'm undecided between the tight "piccolo" type sound, and a slightly deeper sound that reminds me of a large metal framed snare.
The song is a pop/jazz type thing. 4/4, 109 bpm, slightly swinging.....
