How to Record a Vocal Cover (My Process & Advice!)

Описание: In this video I go through the entire process on how I record & shoot my vocal covers. Keep in mind this is completely how I do things and it’s not the “right way”. Take anything that sounds good to you and apply it to how you want to do things.

My Recording Layout:
1.) iMac Desktop Computer
2.) Presonus Studio One (software)
3.) Firewire Cable
4.) Presonus FireStudio Interface
5.) XLR Cable
6.) Recording Mic + Shock Mount + Pop Filter + Mic Stand

Step 1: Record Vocals
Step 2: Record video
Step 3: Edit video (I use iMovie)
Step 4: Upload to YouTube

I’ve linked multiple products that may be useful when needing gear to do vocal covers, most of these I don’t have personal experience with but I did some research and found these to be priced at the varying level you may be at. These are Amazon Affiliate links.
