Okay Kids, not sure if anyone will listen to this but here goes.
• Using MacBook Pro With Live 9 using AudioTechniqua headphones.
• Disabled Overheads due to annoying "pop" noise mentioned by others—was unable to get rid of it with EQ
• EQ on all except Rooms & BG Vox
• Used 1,2 & 5 Lead Vox tracks supplied, with plenty O' automation due to the extreme volume diffs Panned Vox 1 & 2 slightly to L/R, Vox 5 at C.
• Slight volume automation on BG Vox near end where Lead Vox competes
• Reverb applied at varying levels to all but Bass
• Slight boost on Highs & Lows, slight reduction in lower-mids in EQ on Master
• Multi-band compressor on Master
For me the Lead Vox was the most frustrating; there are parts where he drops out still, even with automation and I don't want to ruin the arrangement of the other instruments to fix him. Converting the bounced WAV to MP3 also seems to have boosted the hi-hats more than I would like in spots (maybe it's my imagination?).
Anyway, I will be going into my class studio tomorrow with my bounced file and starting a fresh session in Pro Tools on studio monitors (I've discovered doing it first at home helps to make it go faster in-studio).
Fire away!
Cheers,
Chantelle
