Hey guys,
I've got a pop/punk band that is recording with me at the moment, and all of the instruments have been tracked for one song. (They're recording one at a time.)
Except the vocalist. He's coming in the next day or two, because he's getting over a cold that is going around.
But I'm pretty worried about it. I don't have that much experience tracking clean vocals, and he sings EXTREMELY flat. He sings flat on their demos, he sings flat live, he probably even sings flat in the shower!! And we all know everyone sings their best in the shower.
But anyways, could anyone give me some pointers on tracking vocals, or vocalists that are sub-par in general.
I don't want to resort to auto-tune because it doesn't fit this music, one bit.
check their demos here: http://www.myspace.com/redcarpetalibi
Any suggestions?
