| This is almost certainly a cutting problem. It is likely that the cutting job was difficult if the vocal is bright. Those modern cheap condenser mics are the worst. With a sparse arrangement distortion is noticeable at a lower level than on other types of material. It is very likely that lowering the level 3dB will give an acceptable result. Do yourself a favor and get an acetate reference.
