Where can I find somebody to record vocals for me?

Post by iamcluster12 » Wed Oct 22, 2014 11:14 am

Looking to get some basic "hands in the air" "lets go" sort of vocals recorded, does anybody know where I can find somebody for it? Only place I have found so far is fiverr but not much luck with the people on there. Have tried recording myself but wasn't the best and I have lots of sample packs but need a few different phrases said so sample packs aren't gonna cut it. If anybody know of anywhere I could find somebody could you please let me know. Thanks

Go see some local bands (of any kind) playing and chat up any singers you like about doing it.

Just put a shitload of effects and a vocoder on your own voice to cover up the hideous sound... for free.

Seriously, though - did you double up your takes? I thought my voice sorta sucked until I actually recorded and layered it - doing lots of takes to choose from helps. Some of the time you might really nail it.

Agree on recording your own voice.
No matter how bad a singing voice it is (most people just think of themselves as bad), any one can do these sort of spoken/shouted phrases. Drown them in effects if it makes you feel better.

Addidional advantages:

-Your stuff get's more personal
-Once you aquire a little more self confidence, you can do it live, which makes the whole gig way more personal.

Maybe not "hands in the air" but a new source of some interesting sounds:
