Pascal Standaert - Vocal Chain - Ryan Drean

Pascal Standaert (Radio “RGR FM” Waregem – The Powerstation) with help from Lex from LDG studios (.be) sent in some great screenshots. These are going to be useful if —

A: you don’t have many Waves plug-ins and want to see other ways to get the cutting, edgy vocal sound many hear in CHR and other current formats.

B: You want to see more settings in different plug-ins that you can then try in your own radio imaging and/or audio production.

C: You like tinkering with other peoples settings.

Here is the audio…

You will see a Vocal Chain first, then the Master Chain and then a phone fx plug-in.
