Making all words and vocal parts equally loud

[Leander]

Hi!

How can I get my vocals with all words equally loud..about the same level without having to spend hours on manual automation?

I have Vocal Rider by Waves, but it never works...and I don't know how to use compressors either...I have a couple of plugins, but they either don't do anything or not what I want.

Do you know how I can level my vocals in an easy and fast way, e.g. "reference is -6db, everything below should go x db up, everything too loud should go x db down"?

Melodyne has a volume leveling macro that works pretty well. 

Clip Gain envelopes are the most precise way and shouldn't take all that long with a little practice.
