Weezer - Hash Pipe

nice!!! how does it feel to you with the new mic? I think it sounds a lot fuller! XD

more like a live feel!

@Carol Grand: When I compare tracks I feel like there isn't a huge difference but when I hear it in the mix it sounds a lot better to me

@Carol Grand: The mic I got is supposed to be best for live, but it was a good deal so I bought it. Thanks for steering me in that direction Carol!!

@CybRGibson: i have to admit the dynamic also captures a little less of the flaws in my vocals hehe condensers used to frustate me quite a bit :P they are amazing for really clean singers, but im more of a fun party karaoke singer haha

@Carol Grand: 100%! I have epic flaws in my vocals and the condenser got them all. This mic makes me feel like a singer XD

Needs some oophs! As well lol

@tenaciousj79: Are you volunteering? :-)

1983Electric Ok I put some BVs and my mix in the DAW, if you want them. No harm done if you don't want to use the track.

I've been at work all day so i need to review who all has sent what, but I'm sure Carol wouldn't mind BVs

@1983Electric: super happy to have more people singing XD

@Carol Grand: my thoughts exactly

@Carol Grand: I like your vocals - I wonder if I need to stand back from the mic and shout it a bit more so it sounds more full?

@CybRGibson: I think it sounds great! sent a track to do you some company I think we sounds really nice together :)

@Carol Grand: Thanks - I love your BV track! Your vocals have a lot more ambience than mine. But I do have a shitty mic...

@CybRGibson: I have no idea how my setup works lol my husband did that part XD

@Carol Grand: Damn! If he ever visits Canada I'd be happy for his expertise! Hahaha

@CybRGibson: it might be also that im using a dynamic mic and you are using a condenser one I think? I have never been able to use a condenser mic, tried but I always sound distorted because I yell a lot singing lol so a dynamic one kinda sounds a bit better with my loud voice, at least from what I tried with mics in the past

but my knowledge about music and the tech for it is 0 hehehehe

@Carol Grand: Yes I do use a condenser mic. I didn't really know what I was buying. Maybe I need to go shopping again :-)

@CybRGibson: most people tell me condensers are better, it was never a fit for me hehe but im not the right person to guide on you this since I sincerely have a big lack of knowledge, I just use dynamics because they are the only mics that work for me.

@CybRGibson: this is what the internet says: The difference between a dynamic and a condenser microphone is a dynamic microphone is better for capturing loud, strong sounds (drums or loud vocals), particularly in a live setting, whereas a condenser microphone is used to capture more delicate sounds and higher frequencies (studio vocals for example), particularly in a studio setting.

@Carol Grand: Well thank you Carol! I still think I need to go mic shopping, as new gear always makes me feel better

@CybRGibson: sounds like a fun plan XD

Hi there!! nice to see you too!! :)

Thank you it is great

Other than myself, no. If you want to, you may

@1983Electric: sent you a draft, if you kinda like it I can re-record a bit more clean hehe just let me know if you think it kinda fits :)

@1983Electric: im not really good with falsettos hahahaha

@Carol Grand: I have published them and it sounds good. I am seeing some very high peaks in the DAW which could mean 2 things, the gain (input) level is a little too high or if you also have compression on your mixer, that can help level the high and lower volume peaks to be closer. I know you are just now coming back to recording again

@1983Electric: i'll re record this weekend a cleaner version ;)

@Carol Grand: cool are you doing the backing vocals as well?

@1983Electric: yes! This one was just testing wasnt sure it was going to be in my tone hehe

@Carol Grand: sent you some tracks hope they are a bit better :) let me know if you want me to re-do them XD
