Hey guys. Just been wondering how you guys go about processing scream vocals? I am currently using either an sm57 or an sm58 for both cleans and scream vox. I find that the cleans turn out fine after some processing, the only issue I have with my cleans is that they sort of sound maybe a bit darker than they should be and could even benefit from a bit more depth.
Now with my scream vox tracks, I am dealing two vocalists that usually scream more in the mid to high range and I feel that post processing I want to low pass filter them a bit to get rid of the high end harshness.
My signal chain is either sm57/58 > Rme fireface 400 > Cubase
I usually try and put the preamp gain on the rme to about -25db (a bit of headroom before it starts clipping)
Anyways, just wondering what you guys usually do for processing vox clean and dist.?
Also, would it make that big of a difference if I was to upgrade my vocal mike to an Sm7b?
Thanks, Mark
