make sure the level on the vocals are somewhat linear by using compression, eqing, de-essing, limiting, cuttoff bottom and top etc etc. i never worked with vocals myself but i assume its really dificult if the level on the recording in going up and down and all over the place.

transparent compression is def key in a great vocal.

Having a decent channel strip plugin is a good tool to start with. Channel strips usually have EQ and compression, and sometimes de-essers or noise gates built into them.

Unless you're recording the same person using the same equipment in the same environment, using presets on vocals is generally not a good idea, other than perhaps as just a very rough starting point. Each vocal is different, each mic is different, each performance is different (e.g., different levels, different peaks, different background noise levels), the background music is different, etc., so there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all preset for vocals. Your best approach is to learn to use the tools that you need (e.g., EQ, compressor, gate/expander, de-esser) and understand when and how to use each one.
