Pascal Standaert - Vocal Chain
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...
