I'm in agreement with Brett, I do very little processing to my voice. 
I'm a great fan of the CAPS Versatile Plate Reverb and Steve Harris's SC 
compressors, but that's about all I ever use for my own voice. I've 
never used a pitch correction program, and I don't typically double my 
vocals.

Mics seem more important than processors, at least when it comes to vocals.

I've recorded a few other singers, but I treat their voices the same as 
I treat mine. They're good singers, and that's usually enough.

Best,
