I've struggled a lot with working on vocals.

it would be really cool to have a in-depth tutorial on how to make them sound right after you've already edited them

i know that compression, eq'ing and reverb are the main tools for that but would be great to see how you can optimize those effects to glue the vocals to the track

i can't really explain how i do it. but i always been good at making a vocaltrack sounding warm and "present" .

If you are recording vocals dubs are a great enchancement many times.
aswell as panning thoose dubs.
the choice of mic, preamp , soundcard is very important.
"can't make a troll beautiful"

anyways, the choice of compressor, reverb is doin' BIG difference.
onboard i personally use SSL stereocomp(great warmth in it), Rverb or trueverb, eq about any.
getting it to glue in nice is all about frequencies. EQing

hope this helped alittle

thanks for the tip with the dubs, will try that out

what are your settings on the compressor? do you have a really high ratio on it or even a limiter to cut off the loud stuff? fast attack and long release?

thanks mate
