Consolidated Equalizing

[CactusM]

Hi,
I was just wondering if there was any way to put different vocal recording into one equalizing tool so that they sound alike?

I short, I have some takes in my audio where the singer may have been closer to the mic and the vocal sounds bassy and other takes where the singer's voice sounds a lot less bassy (not higher in volume though). I want to use parts of different takes into one consolidated track but would like them to sound alike in tone.

My guess is that such tool must exist but I cannot seem to be able to find anything on the net about this. I figured something that works a little like Melodyne might exist (in the way that you can transport a track into it, and in this case run an auto equaliser on it)?

Any ideas? I am due to go into studio to mix the tunes down in June but this issue is slowing me down big time.

Thank you in advance for pointing me in the right direction.

It would be awesome if such a thing existed in one neat plugin. I would EQ and compress each track to sound pretty similar to each other, and then comp them together. Try using a multi-band compressor.

I know Ozone 5 has a match EQ feature where the frequency map of an audio file can be analyzed and the EQ curve applied to another. How successful this will be at achieving your aims is uncertain. There's really no substitute for using your ears !!

Look at the manual and video or you get disapointed.

Cactus . .
Make an aux. .
Strap a Waves C4 across it.
Send both vocal tracks to it.

First bypass all the bands.
You say one is "more bassy" than the other.
Activate the lo end band & tweak so it controls the low in in the more "bassy" take . .
You can do the same with the other bands, or use them to expand at chosen bands. .

As is usually the case, experimentation will yield results.
