Tips & Techniques - Vocal Comping w/ Miggs

I've been producing RockRidge / Warner recording artists "MIGGS" this month (www.miggsband.com). Lately we've been in heavy lead vocal recording mode. This video gives a little insight into the process of "Vocal Comping". Usually when i record vocals, i have the singer give me many takes, and I guide them as needed with direction before each take, then i send them away and put together all of the best pieces of each take into one final Comp Vocal.


And while i'm at it, I'm going to repost a link to an old blog posting i did from a few years ago, which covered my techniques with vocal comping in depth. I think its the most commented on and linked blog post i ever did, so here it is again. for all you producers out there wanting to learn how to record and comp vocals, or maybe get a few new tips and techniques, here ya go!!!
