klaus (& everyone)...
please check out this short audio clip...my guitarist recorded it at his project studio w/ an AT4040 thru an old behringer eurorack:
(it's a 16-Bit .WAV w/ an embedded browser play console):
http://www.moonmixstudios.com/wavlinks.htm from the hornsby song 'talk of the town', the female vocalist sings: 'they say, you're running with the wrong set...the boy is someone you should never have met'
now...for the lyrics 'say', 'set' & 'someone'...the sibilance there has caused, what sounds like on system, a sort of static crackle...(the waveforms have quick spikes that look like the type you see for clicks & pops) [& yes...I asked her if she was spitting when she sang & the answer was unequivocally no]
and...for the lyrics 'you're', 'running', 'the' & 'is'...there is a nasty resonance ring at the attack that sounds like maybe over-modulation in the mids (if there is such a thing?) [&...these syllables don't sound so bad w/ verb & in the mix...but they're clearly not right in the raw take to begin with]
so...
1) are my above descriptions accurate ?
2) caused by mic or vocalist ?
3) what is the best way to isolate these anomalies ? ...[I run iZotope RX 2 & SPAN, but didn't see anything that stood out in the spectogram display]
4) best way to return these passages to normal ? ...[aside from notches (after ID) or gain envelopes to lasso them down in level]
thanks much,
MoonMix
