Importance of Vocals: Becoming a Music Producer
Hi! My name is Larry Hammel, singer, songwriter, engineer and producer of Deep Waves Studio here in New York City and on behalf of Expert Village, I would like to welcome you to how to produce a recording artist. Early on in my career as a singer, I always had a difficult time recording; particularly vocals. The vocal is the most important part of a song and you must make sure that when you are recording you can connect with the listener and that the vocalist connects with the listener. Your job as an engineer or producer or someone who is recording a vocal is to capture the essence of that performer's muse, so to speak. The emotion, the transfer emotion, is key to this. Since the beginning of recorded history, the vocal is the most important thing and technology has really flourished. We are here in this big facility but you could be recording in your closet, your bedroom, your bathroom, wherever it hits you. Some of the techniques we are going to use today can be applicable to your home recording techniques. We are actually going to have a girl come in and she is going to sing the Karaoke tracks just so that we can avoid some multi track recording and concentrate strictly on the vocal.
