Instructions
Step 1
If you are recording a voice as a musical instrument playing a melody in a song, this is done last when the rhythm section, harmony instruments and back voices have already been recorded. Do not reinvent the wheel, all the same, you will get nothing but extra hassle.
So, open the sound editor and in it the "minus" of your song (without voice). Connect the microphone and equipment to the network, check the microphone volume. The sound should be heard from the amplifier and its volume displayed in the editor.
Step 2
Prepare a new track for voice recording. Scroll through the recording to the point where the voice comes in, more precisely two measures before the intro, and press the record button.
Step 3
Sing a part of the piece (intro, lead, bridge, or chorus) and stop. Listen to the recording and make sure that there is no falsity, unnecessary noise and other defects. If something is wrong, overwrite the part. Overwrite until you can.
Step 4
If the section repeats, copy and paste the successful take into the appropriate portions of the song.
Step 5
Go to the next section, set the beginning of playback two measures before the voice starts. Write it down the same way as the first piece. Repeat with the rest.
Step 6
Listen to the entire recording, remove noises and aspirations between phrases, add special effects if desired.
