good stuff...what kind of effect did you use on the vocals to achieve that dreamy/echo (I know its probably delay) but still thought I ask...

I use FL studio as well

Where are these vocals from? You record them yourself?

If you recorded them yourself Id suggest a pop filter. If you already used one, I'd look at the 'p' at :45, pretty heavy hit, just an example. If you can't re-record, the frequency of the 'p' is pretty low and cutting the lows < 100 out seemed to get rid of it without

I think the texture you've given it is great (and I too would like to know what you used specifically), and I think some EQing would round it out nicely. I boosted at 270 and cut at 9k and it seemed to bring out a lot of vocal quality. Seemed a bit strong on the high end to me, but I also don't know what else is in your mix that this has to fit into.

Do you have an pitch correction software/plugins? There's a few shady notes in there and I think it would help to settle the vocals in the track.

This isn’t my vocals, I didn’t record these vocals. The vocals are from Blake’s song that comes with FL Studio as a sample song.. I just used his vocals to practice on it.

As for the “P” you are right I noticed that too, but I didn’t really bother fixing it since this is just for the sake of practicing.

For the EQ I know it sounds a bit too much on the high end but I noticed a lot of songs have that style to them so that’s what I was aiming for. (I think no one could be right or wrong here)

To get this effect I worked with 2 wave files. One being the vocal it self and the second wave being "the effect" which is connected to a different Fx channel with some delay and reverb. a sidechain to give it that dreamy mood and tons of other stuff like ozone... I’m too lazy to name everything..:P

agree

I would also like to know what reverb/effects you used to get that nice floaty touch :P
