I just taped a few bands 2 nights ago in Philly, the first 3 I didn't notice my mics weren't all the way plugged in. After listening to the recordings, the music sounds good, but the vocals are very low in the mix. I noticed the issue before the 4th band came on, plugged the mics all the way in and got much better results. I'm really brand new to the world of working on audio, have Soundforge and Audacity at my disposal. Is there anything I can do to try to enhance the vocals?
I'm at work right now, but can post some samples later, the bands in question are grindcore bands, so certainly not for everyone. I'd probably write it off as a learning experience, but I was filming for the bands, so I'd really like to try something if at all possible.
