SCOTT [rockstar_not]= If I really need to nail notes, I will record a guide track of a more pure sound than my own voice. For example, I will record a synth lead melody that I can use to help guide me, otherwise I will sing flat - almost guaranteed.

Scott!!!, adding a synth track has had great impact on less flats and more consistent vocal tracks. I'd tried may RTs, as simple and held as possible, but hadn't even considered that option.

I just brought raw voc tracks into my DAW and am amazed at the difference. I'm no flute, but all things being equal...my god...

Thanks to everyone, it's all appreciated. I'm goofing around with compression and I see why it is so important now.
