So each individual phrase is normalized against itself, not the whole vocal track. Even though this is an old thread, some topics are hardy perennials, and are worth repeating Two other comments...it's important to audition the clips in context, because sometimes a clip will need to have the level pulled back a bit compared to other clips. Also, with this normalization technique, adding even a little compression gives the same perceived results as adding a lot of compression without having normalized first. Even better, because you need so little compression, you don't have pumping, breathing, or other artifacts related to heavy compression. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques Boileau Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Could the Melodyne amplitude tool be used for this? For those who have Melodyne of course. Is their leveling macro a quick way to get more even vocals, with one tool on all notes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treesha Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Yes I posted in this thread earlier that i use melodyne amplitude tool for this and like the results. I like having the fade option too for any note in case only the peak needs taming or i want it to fade out or in. I think its a great program.

Thanks Treesha! In my own defense: it was a few months ago. It has nothing to do with my aging brain of course! ? I have the latest Melodyne Editor and am using the leveling macro to quickly adjust vocal volume. Melodyne is not only for tuning vocals. Just wasn't sure this shortcut was a good alternative and could have drawbacks I hadn't noticed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
