how does anyone manage to scream for more than 10 minutes without sounding like a chainsaw trying to talk afterwards? i know i should've done practice AFTER work.

always warm up your voice before hand, Hot tea before and after, honey straight during. Learned that from the singer of cephalic carnage many many moons ago.

Practice, Practice, Practice. If it hurts, you are doing it wrong. Don't strain to do it either, it should come pretty naturally. A lot of what skip has is what i know i should do, but i just don't for some reason. I did a vocal session for the new record for about 4 hours straight a month or two ago, and i just had a cup of coffee in the booth with me, cause it never really seems to bother me.
Every one does it a bit differently, so it's hard to say what's "right" Our singer's scream is super loud, mine is not.

If you go to our bandcamp link, the song "My god..." on our last record has me on from about the 8:50 timepoint on in the right ear (headphones) I did even more vocals on the new record.

And then there is also this: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL020CA518BC8EF70A I don't agree with everything she says, but it really can help. I blew my voice out bada few years back and used this her techniques to relearn how to do it so i didn;t do it again.

In addition to proper warming up and practice, find your range and I wouldn't recommend trying to emulate any vocalist in particular. It's really easy to shred your vocal cords in a few minutes just by trying to go outside of your natural range. With practice you might increase that range but it's going to be limited, especially at first.

Anyone using a noise suppressor on their board currently?
My shit is getting noisy with the Rat and TS going. It's friggin' annoying.
I've never even thought of putting a noise suppressor on my board before.

What are the cons about it?

I haven't experienced any cons whatsoever...that is with the ISP Decimator, however cheaper NS units like the Boss and many others just didn't work out for me. Personally I use it without a distortion even, put it in my front end and shave off just enough noise so that the lows balance out more and all buzz eliminated. Have used it to great effect after distortion and in the FX loop as well. Very simple to use, one knob, turn up until the noise you don't like is gone while also retaining the same dynamics and harmonics of your guit/pup/amp tone.

They made a rack version recently that plugs into both your front end and FX loop with independent control over each.

Those are some large nobs.

EDIT.

I'm thinking about a RAT. Anyone consider an OCD for trade?

I've got so much stuff I'm trying to swap and sell at the moment, but I hate eBay.

I've got a Rat i'll trade for the OCD, pm me if you wanna work out the trade.

I actually don't think that you can, I think I read somewhere it is against PayPal's rules or whatever but I could be wrong

We just use volume pedals to mute the signal when not playing. Works really well once you get into the habit of using it. Also works great for song parts with a bass, guit or drum solo. Cheap, no affect on tone and effective.
