Finally got around to recording vocals with the band I worked with back in august.

I'm completely lost here. I'm not happy with the way the vocals sound at all and i'm not even sure what i don't like about them.


No mastering whatsoever done yet
and somewhy fucking soundcloud butchered the quality

I actually like them, they don't sound bad!

 

[TheDepthsWillRise]

I dig the track. To me the vocals sound a little too dry, and the dynamics are kinda muted.

 

[Sander]

Anyone else ?

 

[JLP2005]

Vocals aren't bad at all (actually pretty f'in good!)-- they're just really dry. First thing I want to do to this is bring the guitar to the front, pan 'em nice for a big sound. Give that a go, see how the vocalist sounds when he's got a nice wall of sound behind him. Give the vocalist a bit of reverb, too. Just a hint.

The noodling at 1:40 is barely audible. Guitars are too tame in the mix. Bring 'em out and make 'em wild.

The guitars are pretty upfront and panned 100% (except for the leads, i found that they work a bit better when they are closer to the center).

I thought they sounded distant and weaker than they should be.

I actually kind of agree. Definitely bringing them up a bit when i get around to reworking this.
