Vocals mixing

Howdy

researching into singing vocals mixing at the moment then will move onto film, for music it seems the key points are

1----compressor tiny bit use sparngly

2----16K haaa air frequency - boost
high pass filter at 86hz
-250hz muddy freq experiment with this

3----compressor at 6k down to about -24db to avoid the hiss from 's' only when there is a peak at 6k

:) peachy - from Tutorial 1: Mixing Vocals in Pro Tools Series Part 1 on Youtube

Also its usually best for home recordings to use a nice warm dynamic mic like a Shure SM58, well I dont have 100 pounds to splash on a mic so got the much cheaper Shure C606 which has been tested and is sounding good so far - I might just need to get a portable vocal booth as im using a sheet of card atm which only cancels some background noise and reverb.

have a great day
