im having this problem with the vocal chain where there is a weird hiss/noise whenever there isnt anything being said. most of it is able to be gated out, but if you listen to the clip, youll hear what i mean. (just so you know, i made this rough song in like 15 minutes)
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/8017980/iHateHipsters.mp3
vocal chain includes:
sm57 > Maudio Fast Track > TLs saturation > Rvox > gate > Rcomp > Q10 HPF@125, -3bd cut@275, 4db boost@5k-14k, -5db cut@21k > DeEsser > Saturation > Stereo Touch > Reaper's classic compressor > Gclip running to submix of Rocket compressor > ReaDelay > Rverb.
seems like a sh*t too many things to have in the chain. so please let me know what i can alter, take out, add, etc to make it sound more natural yet in your face. if it helps, id like to reference ABACABB's Survivalist album. thats kinda how id like it to sound.
*EDIT: since i lost the raw vocal files, i couldnt edit this project. but here is a mix i just finished and it'll show you where i stand as far as vocal quality is concerned.
