I agree with you completely here. One of the biggest challenges we always have is matching the sound quality of our own recordings with professionally built sound libraries or vst’s. Unfortunately, a high class signal chain we can use for our vocals or recording instruments is still way out of our budget. It’s a slow process, but hopefully we’ll get there.
Thanks, I appreciate that! Sometimes we do get carried away with the effects haha. There is so much to choose from and so many sounds to discover! Likewise, we are relatively new to music production and mixing so we are still in the search for that sweetspot. I can see how a more refined effect usage might strike the listener in a better way.
Would not be opposed to that idea in any way!
