The beauty of EQ is like being with the love of your life. While you do things that please your lover, it will be nice, it will sound pretty, it will make you shine…. Push it toooooo far and you’ll see and ugly side you never knew was there, take too much away and they will be hollow or sound empty. It takes the right touch, the right amount of work and not overwhelming or overdoing things. All that to say, cut the low end of your vocal. I know I went the long way about this but bear with me. While bass and low-end sound great from a kick, 808 or bass line. It makes a vocal sound muddy, unless you are Barry White, and then it may be your best friend. If you aren’t though.... You need to cut it out and go from there. Now, I am not saying that you cut it all the way, just the sub and bass section (20 Hz – 250 Hz). You can leave a little bleed if the voice requires it (*COUGH* Barry White) or to make it sound a bit fuller if the vocal sound a bit to hollow. This will only work if you have a Deep voice. Other than that, you make it sound muffled and boomy. Now, after cutting the low end, you take a knob around the 200 Hz – 500 Hz range and make a sharp or narrow cut wherever needed. Like the picture Below. After than you lower or boost wherever necessary in the remaining frequencies. The Goal is to make your voice sound as natural as possible without the unnecessary noise, bass and ring from your voice. The majority of the vocal will sit between the mid to high mid frequencies and will hopefully not fight with the rest of the instrumentation or other frequencies in the mix.
Anyways, hopefully this helps. Until Next time, STAY BLESSED. Mic-Key
