Best vocal chain for Logic Pro

A clean, modern vocal in Logic Pro needs no paid plugins. Here is the order that works for rap, melodic and R&B vocals.

The chain, in order

  1. Clean-up EQ (Channel EQ) — high-pass around 80–100 Hz and cut muddy low-mids.
  2. Pitch correction (Pitch Correction) — fast for melodic rap, gentle for R&B.
  3. Compression (Compressor) — 3–6 dB of gain reduction keeps every word upfront.
  4. De-essing (DeEsser 2) — tame harsh "s" sounds around 5–8 kHz.
  5. Space (ChromaVerb + Tape Delay on buses) — keep effects on sends so the dry vocal stays clear.
