I hope someone can bestow this knowledge apon me soon, I'm shaving minutes off of my life endlessly looking for THAT vocal take... |
Why would you need to do 25 vocal takes?
If I do any more than 4 or 5 with a singer and they still haven't shown me the magic then I realize that we need to either punch our way to success (yuk) or let the singer go home.
25 is just toooooo much editing. No matter how many man hours you throw at it it will never sound like 1 good take.
P.S. Sometime I take 3 strong takes, put my favorite parts on a comp track, then have the singer fill in the blanks if there are any.
