I am thinking about doing a EDM cover of "Shake it Off" by Taylor Swift. You might know her? I was wondering if anyone has ever come across a microphone with built in auto tune at best buy? I got a gift card for Christmas and I want to use it there.
help.
Best Mic for Taylor Swift EDM covers
Re: Best Mic for Taylor Swift EDM covers
I'm in a similar boat man. I'm trying to record Evanescence covers with more of a goth/nu-metal/polka feel to it, and I just can't get my screamo vocals to sit right over the tuba and Mesa Mk IV backing tracks. Any advice is welcome.

Just run your ipod earbuds in reverse, probably need a pre to bump up the levels, but stereo vocals with something that fits in your pocket, it's a sure fire solution.

I'm laughing over here but I have used earbuds/headphones to record a gig before. Doesn't sound great but it's better than nothing.HatfieldCreek wrote: ↑Fri Feb 17, 2017 2:03 am Just run your ipod earbuds in reverse, probably need a pre to bump up the levels, but stereo vocals with something that fits in your pocket, it's a sure fire solution.

This thread was pure gold.
@Tadpui how did that cover turn out?

@WhiskeyJack it was a big hit in the "Yaks under 50" demographic!
Funny thing about this thread is that I actually use an Avantone CV-12, which is the mic that Taylor Swift made famous because she used it on some home recorded tracks that made it onto one of her albums. I usually refer to it as my Taylor Swift mic

Who buys a 12 yr old girl a 700 dollar mic? Rich parents.

Turned out to be a tidy investment though to be fair.
