Q: i knew what he was talking about cuz youtube's been targeting pad ad's to me for a while now. anyway, my question is how do YOU deal with the acoustics in whatever room you record vocal
 s in, if
  you do at all. if you feel more comfortable emailing about this i wouldn't mind. i just feel like i fucked that up, so, yeah.
A: my room is almost entirely carpeted. that helps a lot. if you have a mostly non-carpeted room you are screwed. also there is a lot of stuff in here, which helps. there are pictures on the walls, etc. there is just a lot of stuff in here. there is actually a very small sound absorbing pad that i put on a blank spot on the wall but i think the effects are probably negligible. the sound seems to be ok but i've been noticing more lately that it's not perfect. someone actually once told me they thought i put reverb on the narration vocals on history of japan, but not the jingle vocals. this is backwards, there is no reverb on the narration, but a little bit on the jingles. what this tells me is that the natural room acoustics are audible on the narration because there is much less other music to mask it. but during the jingles, or full musical arrangements, it is not audible
