this might come as a newb question but i kind thought it was more production tech. anway i got 2 questions on recording vocals with Pro Tools Le..


1.is there any tip or "trick" to measure in between hooks so i can juss copy the original(1st hook) into tha next hooks?

2.and all vocals should be recorded mono right?

any feedback much appreciated...

thnx

Have the BPM match the music and you can fly the chorus's by bar lines.

Yeah, what EL said.

Not always, but really it's whatever you want and are comfortable with.
I usually do my lead vocals mono. Backgrounds stereo w/ effects but really it's whatever I feel like doing that day.

mono leads and stereo fx tracks on vox ( but usually use 2 mono, so I have more panning control)

Didn't bash you cause you actually asked a REAL question, not something
basic that 's found in a gear manual AND you placed your post in the proper
forum.
