Use when the user has recorded vocals and wants a processing chain set up. Examples - "set up my vocal chain", "process this vocal", "make the vocal sit in the mix", "give me a pop vocal chain", "make this rap vocal aggressive".
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Vocal Chain Set up a vocal processing chain on the vocal track. Stock Ableton plugins by default; user can swap to third-party manually. ## Workflow ### 1. Identify the vocal style Ask if not given: | Style | Sonic goals | | --- | --- | | Pop lead | Bright, present, controlled, clean | | Rap (modern) | Aggressive, in-your-face, heavy compression | | Indie/lo-fi | Warm, slightly distant, character preserved | | R&B | Smooth, lush, with subtle pitch correction | | Cinematic/spoken word | Intimate, breathy, minimal processing | | Backing vocals | Sit behind the lead — duller, narrower, ducked | ### 2. Inspect the recording `get_track_info` for the vocal track. Check: - Peak level (should be -6 to -3 dB ideally) - Any existing devices (don't blow them away) - Mono or stereo (vocals are usually mono) If peaks are red or the recording is below -20 dB, flag it: "Re-record at proper gain first; processing won't fix a bad recording." ### 3. Build the chain #### Order matters. Standard order: 1. **Gate / Noise reduction** (only if needed) 2. **Subtractive EQ** (cut problems) 3. **De-esser** (tame harsh sibilance) 4. **Compressor 1** (peak control, fast) …

How to install
mdr add glincker/ableton-skills/vocal-chain@sha256:ace663f86a9715cfThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260427.0960c77, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
