Hi

It sounds like your to near the mic. What mic are you using, and how near, are you using a pop shield?

If you have a strong and dynamic voice it will need a bit of room to develop, for example, an opera singer could stand 2 meters, give or take, away, depending on the acoustic.

Regards

Ian

Subject: [ddots-l] Question about recording vocals

I'm wondering if anyone can give me some ideas about this. I have a very
dynamic voice. What I mean is that my dynamic range is very wide Which is
why I don't get why my vocals always seam to have a slitely saturated sound with or with out compression. Maybe the best way to describe it is that they
always sound a little distorted. At first I thought that maybe I was
recording with too much compression on my pre/amp. So then I made sure that
the compressor was very light and I still had the same problem. Then I
decided to turn off the compressor all together, but still no luck. Anyone
have suggestions for me? I have run out of things to try.

Oh and I always make sure that my input meters don't go below -6.0.
May the peace  of God which passes all understanding gard your heart and
mind in Christ Jesus.

God bless you!
