If you use an Avalon or a Focusrite, what other pre-amps would you suggest that are less expensive, because all I'm looking for is quality like this vocal track and a very low noise floor. thanks!

Real talk, GREAT tutorial. i understand where ur getting at, and appreciate you throwing ideas, that can enable people to at least get off their feet in producing. p.s. if people were experience and making good money, i doubt they have the time to talk negatively about a tutorial just to show that "you" are smart. chances are the negative commented people copied all settings. ok so… i love how people come in, READ THE DESCRIPTION and talk about a dead horse… smh if its an example and obviously for beginning stage producers…. why are you putting the worthless “2 cents comment” in? its a tutorial. shutup and listen or shutup and click another link. theres at least one section that someone can benefit from.

Great work you did! But I've got a question.. I'm a rapper from Switzerland and I'd like to know how to manage the mastering for rap-vocals?! The same way you told us here or is there another tutorial on this page (I didn't found one)? I work with Logic Pro 8 Studio. Greetz Sympho Hi!

One thing is for sure... Its great for beginners. It gives you an understanding of the whole process of treating a vocal. Understanding how to use these tools will get you very far in mixing vocals on your own. Before & After... Having an understanding of the tools, will obviously require great effort, rather than copy/pasting the settings on the screenshots. Unfortunatelly the before and after didn't cut it for my ears... The vocals, albeit having being cleaned off from all the problems (popping, low end, etc) were still muddy and lacking punch. The problem the way I see (or hear) it is the compressor, where it kills any sort of attack. There exist a myriad different ways to use a compressor, and one thing stands out... Its not about numbers and ratios, its about knowing what to listen for and what knob to turn to fix it. More on another day perhaps... Back to work! Hello,

Like someone already wrote, Logic de-esser isn´t very good. I think Waves is ok, and I like Sonnox Oxford SuprEsser too. Nice tutorial here!
