Jason Mraz Vocal = Best compression i've ever heard!!

Hi, Tony!

Thanks for sharing & spending time here!
I'm amazed with Jason Mraz vocal sound. The compression effect sounds so unique.
i'm wondering what gears did u use for the vocal and what's the basic setting for that?
i read that you used Chandler TG-1, but it sounds like double heavy compression applied on the vocal. (maybe i'm wrong), but I'm wondering..
Did you use other compressor than TG-1 or did they apply heavy compression since the recording stage?
Many thanks for your share.. Respect!!

Hey Mix,
Funny you should ask... In my previous post I only listed the Neve EQ and Chandler TG1. But I do remember using an 1176 on a buss to bring up some of the beathing and overall room noise. I find this gives it a bit of energy...
