Recording/Editing
EDITING - BEFORE AND AFTER
Before Vocal Tuning and Noise Correction…
After Vocal Tuning and Noise Correction…
Things corrected: Pitch (“Auto-Tune”), Tempo Phrasing, Suppressed Mouth Clicks, Removed Plosives, etc.
You may not even notice any edits, that is the goal! We strive to make sure the vocal sounds as natural as possible, this starts with getting the best vocal take; which can take up to 4 hours per song, or as quick as 5 minutes. Sometimes the emotion of the first take is the best take. This is where editing can come in handy. Pitch can be fixed, but feel cannot!
Production
PROD. - BEFORE AND AFTER
