Vocal Tip

Hey All,

I've been trying to figure out a certain vocal effect for quite some time and have not had a whole lot of luck. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Have a listen

Its the lead singers vocals, they kinda sound doubled, but I don't think they are.

Any help would be really appreciated.

Cheers,
Shawn

Ease down,

Follow the link and check out Clown Cars on Cider Blocks or The Classical Arrangement in the web player to hear what I'm talking about.

Sorry I couldn't resist.

Sounds like some nasty phasing from delaying 10-20ms. Maybe even an LFO to modulate the delay slowly just a little. Like a cheap chorus pedal.

It's different, but in a way that people have tried once.

... It's just not my cup of tea. Someone else may dig it.

A little chorusing goes a long way on vocals. Nothing new. Nothing original. Run-of-the-mill preset. And it's not panned hard left & right but actually at 10 o'clock & 2 o'clock. So it ain't abnormally wide. And neither is the music. But its catchy in a crunchy way. Clown cars, sounds like what I drive??
