    I know this is a metal forum but...rap vocals?

    I know this is mainly this forum is for heavy music, but i'm really trying to nail that rap vocal sound because I've been recording a lot of rappers lately. Here's my latest mix (I only mixed vocals, not beat), can anyone give me any advice on getting a better sound? I know the vocals are a tad...

    It's been a while!! Anything i need to brush up on?

    Yeah I've come to the realization that Rbass sucks. MaxxBass allows you to have way more control over the harmonics you want.

    It's a Memphis may fire cover! And it's pod with a lot of eq and some subtle console saturation

    Yeah definitely. I tried experimenting with different types of EQ's and tones, and I could definitely take some out of the guitars

    Yeah the resonance is coming from using Rbass on the bass guitar. I just car tested it and I just heard the resonances clearly. I think the piercing highs you are referring to is coming from the eq I used on the master bus. The color from the eq is a little harsh.

    How does this sound? It's been a while since I've mixed a heavy song. I also tried some new things on my master bus. Let me know how it sounds! Thanks guys. https://dl.dropbox.com/s/sg8mpzpnbyf3qyw/New%20Master%20Test.mp3?dl=0
