Gang Vocals / Choir Vocals

So… what’s the difference between Gang Vocals and Choir Vocals? That’s a question we receive a lot, and here’s how we like to explain it:
• Gang Vocals is where we capture a “crowd” feel that adds to the emotion of the song, or makes a congregational worship song feel congregational. This requires less preparation and precision than Choir Vocals, and therefore is not usually featured as prominently in the song’s mix as Choir Vocals.
• Choir Vocals is where we pre-arrange and pre-record particular parts, and hire top-tier vocalists to ensure the part lands just right. This, combined with extensive post-recording editing, allows Choir Vocals to be featured prominently in the song’s mix.
