Using Guitar Pedals to Thicken a Lead Vocal

- This vocal track needs something to help it stand out in a busier mix... but what? A harmonizer/detune (Boss PS-6 Harmonist)? A short delay (JHS Lucky Cat)? Some distortion (Yellowcake Fried Gold)? A combination?

You agreed 👍 chapters in a book yes taking taking the different song sections and compiling them building out a story is like a mini book with different chapters and uh adding in those details to make the song really shine . Chapters of the book are very detailed and some people say instead of track one they say chapter one yeah . so with the different uh uh the analogy to storytelling is is
maybe not even an analogy it might even be like exactly the same because the song lyrics are in essence telling a
story um other people who said the music of the words uh or the music of the words then
the Rhythm then the bass then the basic Baseline Melody then tweak the words then detail of the melody harmonies then
transitions then tweak the harmonies then recycle ♻. Song title plus numbers equals 🟰 chapters lyrics equals 🟰 details. And album 💿 title equals 🟰 book 📕 📖 📚 title.
I like the 'undo' button on the digital portistudios 😂 bouncing dont bother me, but I copy and paste track 1 (Virtual 1) in my BR800 into track 1 (V2,V3 and V4) so i can do different bounces there to see what I like and preserve the isolated track on track 1-V1.
I'm interested in messing with tape but I don't even get off my ass and record on my Boss.
You and others are motivating me to get off my ass and start recording again. BEATO ROCKS! I'm driving into all his theory lessons currently.
Right on! My (unsolicited) advice is: baby steps. I went years without recording, and if I'd tried to dive in with multitrack recording, I think I would have quit again. But I started really slowly, with live run thrus and "one take wonders," and slowly built momentum that carried into multitracking.
The 424 sounds great, and I try to use it as much as I can. There's something about the layout/UI on the 424... it just makes sense to me. But the track limitations are a real thing, and I know (from experience) that they can kill my momentum on a project. So I do most of my work in digital portastudios... and when I do, I always appreciate the Almighty Undo button haha.

Oh don't get me wrong, I last recorded about 7 months ago so it hasn't been that long.
I always found it easy on the Boss Portistudios. I joined the Marines in 2000 and got to my unit on 9-11, months after 9-11 when we finally got off of lockdown the first thing I did was went and got an Ibanez Iceman, an amp, a few pedals and a Boss BR532. I learned to write on that Boss BR 532 easy because it had built in drums, effects and bass and acoustic simulators, so when other dudes would play video games and work on cars after they get off duty I would make songs (😂 sadly I erased about 3 years of those earlier songs by not knowing what the "Initialize" button does 😂 that hurt). I just started by putting on a drum track, recording any random guitar part, making up a bass line, then doing more guitars (didn't sing back then, would be sort of weird in the barracks and I was more insecure then).
Since then I've had several incarnations of the Boss BR and love them. I've had to ditch em and get new ones because I was homeless for a while off and on. I got a Tascam once, I think DP02 or DP03, the only one with built in drums, I liked it also, but I swear by the Bosses and those virtual tracks are great to have.
If I do experiment with tape I think I'd record on the Boss and bounce with that first before throwing the last few mixed down tracks to the tape portistudio.
Portistudios are way more fun than DAWs in my personal experience.
Sound 3 was the best to my ear...
Well, I went with sound 1 and it ended up giving me trouble... I should have taken your future advice 😂
