Voice Processing For a Radio Show...

Sup fellas!

I'm working on putting together a weekly podcast, but unfortunately I've never done any vocal work. I need tips on voice processing? I wanna make the voice sound a nice & rich as Dance Department's radio show instead of just flat and boring.

Here's a sample. I really like how the first sweeper sounds when it says Dance Department. It sounds nice, rich, powerful. I also like the processing on the announcers voice.

I'll be putting the show together on Ableton Live.

Low noise floor with heavy compression. Add some artificial sparkle with an exciter like BBE Sonic Maximiser. Bit of extra eq at 10Khz and 600hz. Top it off with a limiter/maximiser.

CLA followed by softubes FET compressor. A combo I find quite tasty. I would check out some compressors that also have an expander component so you can get rid of noise while you aren't talking and still provide that super squashed sound you are after. Sonnox dynamics is great for that. AS an overall plugin after the major work, waves vocal rider or waves mv2 is rather nice. IN fact I love the mv2. It really allows you to be quite lazy forget the automation you would do had you not had those plugins.
