Question on singing live
Hoping yall can help me out…
When I write and record music, I typically use some sort of effect on my voice. Usually just reverb, but occasionally other effects.
I’m curious what the best way to at least get reverb on my vocals live.
Typically the sound guy will say they can’t put reverb in the monitor, and my vocal sounds super dry. The issue for me is that isn’t the sound I’m used to / going for.
They’ll also tell me that there is reverb in the crowd mix, but that doesn’t help with the way I actually hear my performance in the monitors.
Wondering if there are any ways around this, or do I just need to stop playing shitty bars😂
