HELP! Treating Wet Vocals - Removing Echo

Post by Mike Renai » Fri Mar 29, 2013 2:48 pm

When working on vocal samples that have high re-verb and delay tails, are there any plugins or techniques that can be used to make the sample dry as possible?

Damn I didn't even know something like Zynaptiq UNVEIL existed... Shame I don't have $400. However I mite actually get away with gating if I spend some time on it. Thanks for the quick replies.

Is it anything you can rerecord? or track yourself? If its like a vocal stem for a remix i understand you couldnt but i know ppl who will just record someone else or themselves doing the vocals again.

Try making it fully mono. Depending on the vocal, if it wasn't doubled/tripled, the side channel information is all delay and reverb so you probably don't need that then. Most vocals ARE doubled though.

unveil literally takes 3 times more cpu than diva (80% cpu with one instance for me). they should serious sort the INSANE cpu hit before charging $400

Download the demo - it allows 20 minutes, long enough to bounce. It's a pretty good tool, but they're dreaming if they think they can charge 400! You can get most DAWs for less than that.

Buy a new computer, or don't use it. I'd rather have a tool that makes full use of a modern CPU to do a good job. This is one reason that we need faster computers, it opens up more possibilities.
