The Making Of An Album
Page 6
 - Recording The Background Vocals (Digital Audio) -

Liz and Cheryl are the two vocalists we used for the background harmonies. I recorded them separately from each other, rather than having them both sing their parts together. This way I kept them on separate tracks for greater control when it came time for balancing levels and adding effects to their individual parts.

We also added a couple more background vocal parts on some songs, having Jeremy and Cheryl sing additional harmony parts.

The vocals are still dry at this stage, with no chorus or reverb enhancements added yet.
