Same goes for mics.
I think people really get caught up in finding replacements for things that aren't there already.
When you do this you end up with vocal tracks that come out dull and at times over compressed.
Than at mixdown you have to over process them to make them sound normal.
I prefer your idea of singing in keys that can make the your voice sound "thicker".
Also the arrangement/production can help support this. |
Yep this is very true. Playing with different keys on the song will help a ton more, and also knowing the limitations of your vocal ability helps alot to. aka, don't sing what you can, but sing what you feel more confortable with. Choosing different gear will only play with EQ not your vocal timbre witch I believe bothers you most. This happens to me, and I just recently found where I like my voice sound best.. and started to write songs accordingly with my limitations.
