  • Thanks for this video man, it took me forever to find someone who had some kind of actually advice on vocal stacking.

  • wow. u need lotion on those elbows

  • hey man you are the best....can u tell me which program is the best for vocal recordings for mac?

  • a lot of eminem's choruses are have stacked vocals, but they sound really good though.

  • this is why i started hating lloyd banks music.

  • Thanks, That was great Advice man

  • Use Vocalign

  • stacking is also used to give ur vocal a different effect

    like make ur voice sound different more harsh or more thick

    there r plenty of signed mcz who stack there vocals and it sounds perfect

  • Stacking Vocals is key in recording. I kno I can do it everytime I Get in the both. But its all on the person doing the recording too. If They only like to do Dubs an adlibs than thats thier style and thats how they do it. but for guys like me I have to stack them in Half bar patterens. Thats just the way that I do it. But in my opion stacking is one of the key ingredents toi a good mix on a hip hop song

  • In my opinion you can pretty much "stack" your vocals as long as you dont have the same volume levels... same with just copying and pasting... The only reason why I think stacking your vocals is whack is because its not your voice its different because its dubbed and possible different as apposed to you just copying and pasting.
