How does Waves Vocal Rider work?
Vocal Rider is the first of Waves pioneering new series of Mix tools. As its name implies, it automatically rides vocal track levels. Instead of manually riding a mixing console fader, or tediously drawing in every level change on a DAW track, Vocal Rider does it for you, making it a true timesaver.

Can I use vocal rider on bass?
Works wonders for stereo guitar parts too… to level out each side and make sure image isn’t pulling L and R as each dips down a bit… then compressed together as stereo pair. Works better on those things than on vocals, frankly. I agree – I’ve also used Vocal Rider on bass with good results.
What is a thumper?
thumper (countable and uncountable, plural thumpers) One who thumps. (slang) A single-cylinder engine, especially four-stroke engines or those with large engine displacements. (uncountable) A drinking game wherein players must remember personal hand signs while being distracted by others banging on a table.
What happens if your thumper is too small?
If a thumper is too small or if you didn’t put enough liquid in it, then that liquid will heat up too quickly from the incoming vapor. Then that vapor will just bubble up right through the liquid without being cooled and condensed first, exiting straight through the condenser.
How can I smooth my voice?
When trying to make your vocals smooth sounding, it’s all about balancing high frequencies with low-mids. Attenuate your sibilance with a de-esser, equalizer, or with an analog emulation that dampens highs, then subtly increase low-mids to mask higher frequencies and add a warm, smooth quality.
