Vocal effect on 38 Special’s “Caught Up in You”?
Hi. I know it’s nothing special (quite a few 70s/80s radio staples with identical or similar treatments) but I like the vocal treatment on this song, like the vocals are in their own little cave floating in the rest of the mix. I’ve messed around and closest I can get is a loud shortish delay (tape delay in Logic) combined with a bright reverb (plate?) in the 1-1.5 sec range. Both eq’d (as sends, with EQ before effect) to taste. I feel like I’m circling it but not quite “there” (or maybe I am and my voice blows a lot more than their vocalist. I mean it objectively does but oh well.)
If you have any insights, thanks. You can find the iso’d vocals on youtube.
