The vocalist may sing along with the scratch vocal to get a feel for the song and may ask the producer or songwriter about how they want the song interpreted. After hearing the song a few times, they are ready to go into the studio and begin working with the microphone and headset.
The engineer will begin adjusting the sound levels to suit the vocalist’s voice as the vocalist works on the song.
