Guitar Effects On Vocals
Can I put a mic into my two port guitar amp with a guitar and not mess up the amp?
I have a 65r fender frontman amp. Recently I wanted to start a garage rock band, and I wanted to plug a mic in with it. Would the amp go on overload? How would the effects of my guitar effect my vocals? If I had a distorted guitar, would it distort my vocals? Thanks.
1) if you keep the volume down, it won’t hurt anything, but that is very small amp
2) Yes, since that amp only has one channel, anything you do to the guitar will also affect the mic
the amp may have 2 “inputs”, but it is only one channel
a 2 channel amp, has separate volume and tone controls for each channel.
3) if the distortion is from the amp, the mic will be distorted, if the guitar distortion is from an “outboard pedal”, the mic won’t be affected
4) most guitar amps don’t sound very good with mics

Garageband vocal help??
I’m using garageband towards my coursework for my music. I have laid down guitar tracks, bass tracks and a drum track. But. Now i left the worse till last. the vocals. i have the lyrics so that’s all good but i hate my singing so much. I’m 15 so my voice hasn’t develeped fully.I have been through all the vocal effects on garageband but none seem to fit my voice. (im singing it not shouting it). Can any one suggest what effect sounds good for a ‘beginner’ voice or a custom effect? thanks!
I don’t know garageband, but Pro Tools and Nuendo allow plugins such as Autotune. Main problem with most vocalists is pitch. If you are just a little bit off, Autotune will tighten it up. Also, a slight chorus sometimes helps out of key vocals. Throwing a slight reverb on it can wetten up the sound slightly too.
