How To Record Your Vocals
Well, most of you think "njea how simple is that", well you are wrong.
If you recording in adobe audition 3.0 I will help you to set up your records. Follow this steps :
First thing you have to do is arm yours track. Just click Red "R" button on track you want to record.
Check your record device option. If you want quality sound, you have to chooseMONO recording.
When you do that, you have to record 3 tracks one below other. But you must record ON THE SAME WAY YOU RECORD FIRST ONE.
Example:
I armed first track hit the record button and sing : "LAA LAAA LAAA"
Then I armed second track, hit record button and sing "LAA LAAA LAAA"
Then I arm 3th track, hit record button and sing "LAA LAAA LAA.You get it ? I hope you do :)
That's way you record yours vocals..
NOTE : The 1st track you record must be on center, Second one YOU MUST pan it to 40 degree to LEFT, And 3d one YOU MUST PAN 40 degree to RIGHT so you can get that very good stereo sound.
Mastering Your Vocals
For good quality of yours vocal tracks you have to add some effects.
Follow me :
First effect you want to do is choose witch track you want to edit. When you chose then double-click on it. Now you get your self to edit mode. Mark whole track. First effect is Amplitude and Commpression -> Amplify/Fade process. When you get there choose Center Wave. Hit OK.
Next one is Dynamic Processing ->Effect preset->Rap Presence(If you are a raper). Mark whole track and hit OK.
Next one is Reverb->Reverb choose witch one preset you like and hit OK.
Next one is Filter and EQ->Graphic Equalizer-> Lead vocal-Presence and Clarity

How To Install Vst And DirectX Plugins Adobe Audition
You are surely ask your self how to add Vst And DirectX plug ins to Adobe Audition 3.0. Well that part is easy. Just follow a few steps :
Find a plugin you want to add
Download it or buy it ( I recommend buying because you will always get original and full edition of that plug in, do not trust some "unknown" vst sites, you can get your adobe audition or OS crashed)
If plugin is a .exe file just install it
If yours selected plug in is just .dll then do this.
Create a new folder and call it VST Plug ins or just PLUGINS (whatever you like, important thing is to create a empty folder
If you have more then one plugin then find and copy them to "PLUGINS" folder (just for easy organize)
Open yours Adobe Audition 3.0 software and get your self into "edit mode"
Click on "Effects" on toolbar
Click enable DirectX plug ins
Now go again to "Effects" on toolbar and just click refresh effect list

Adobe Audition Effects!
Well, everyone who is just at beginning of learning how to use Adobe Audition 3.0 does not know how to use and get the effect that he looking for.
I well help you as much I can but I also must tenacious.
So lets get started.
1.
ECHO -
Most of you guys and girls :) wants to add that very nice and smooth echo to your vocals. Let me Show you how to do that.First mark the part of the track you want to edit Click on effects Choose the Delay and echo And double-click on echo
For nice and stereo echo choose Stereo Vocals and do a lil bit editing, just take a look my screenshot where I made some adjusting.
2.
DELAY-
Most of people thinks that echo and delay are the same thing, well they are wrong. Delay effect gives your vocals feedback at full volume. You can you delay on the begging of the song. Some example : Beat starts and you want to add a intro lyrics, so it should be like this : I say YEAH (that "YEAH" will repeat a few times) YEAH yeah....So How to do that? Its very easy follow me : Mark your intro vocals Go to Effects list Choose Delay and echo Pick Delay Choose tap slap and check my screenshot to see my customize settings
3.
REVERB-
reverb is a great effects for those who have a low quality mic. Use reverb to add some power and quality to your vocals. Follow me to get a right reverb settings : mark part of your vocals witch you want to edit go to effects Choose reverb open studio reverb then choose Vocal reverb medium That's about it you do not need make and adjust.
4.
TIME AND PITCH
Time and pitch you use to make special effect vocal. Like some robotic vocals, devil, a lil baby etc. I like and use Time and pitch very often. So lets get started : Mark vocal part you want to edit Go to effects choose Time and Pitch then pitch shifter Now if you want to your vocals sound like devil then choose Deathly II and check my screenshot to make a little corrections If You want to your vocals sound like a lil baby then go back and choose stretch and pick a raise pitch and check my screenshot to make some correction You can also use stretch to get your vocals sound like a devil, helium, baby faster tempo, lower tempo speed etc. Just a mes a lil bit about it and choose what you like
5.
AMPLIFY FADE/PROCESS
This effect is one of most used. Adobe Audition Amplify process is just tool to increase the volume of your vocals. If you have a low quality microphone this effect is made for you. My suggestion is before you start to mastering your vocals use amplify process. Mark your vocal and go to edit mode, then choose "amplify fade/process" effect and double-click on it. Then you chose Center Wave and hit ok. Now again go to "amplify fade/process" and chose 3dB boost. This is a way to boost power from your cheap microphone.
6.
HARD LIMITING PROCESS
Well, after you do all mastering you want to do, you must get your vocals in "same line", you do not want to have "peaks" and "puffs". How to eliminate it? Mark you vocal, go to edit mode, chose hard limiting process, and set the settings like this :
Limit Max amplitude to -6,5
Boost input by 1,8
Look ahead time 7ms
Release time 100ms ; hit ok.
7.
NOISE REDUCTION
If you have a low quality equipment you must have a lot of noise and "extra" sounds. This effect will help you to eliminate every other sound that you do not want in your song. How to do that? It is very simple. Mark the part of track containing the "unwanted sound", go to effects, and choose "Noise reduction process". Then you will get the small pop-up window. First thing you must to do is select what sound you do not want. Please select that sound and then click on Capture profile, then wait a little. Now when Adobe Audition finished you request you will get some diagram. Now, be careful, you do not want to have that "ROBOTIC" sound of voice right? Follow me to do it right. First click on "SELECT ENTIRE WAVE" then:
your reduction noise level set on 60
Reduce by : 30dB
Precision Factor : 6
Smoothing amount : 1,5
Spectral Decay rate : 60%
Hit ok and that's it.
