Chris and Jody discuss what to consider when tracking vocals: How close to the mic should you get? What are the issues you may run into when not getting this right? What if the singer wants to actually hold the mic in hand? What is proximity effect? All this, plus our Friday Finds.
It’s also not unlikely that there will be some nonsense discussed…

What about mic-ing drums with only 3 mics? All these ideas, and some way out there attempts, are brought to light in this episode. Plus the Friday Finds for this week and… It’s also not unlikely that there will be some nonsense discussed.
