I know you’re probably being facetious but just a word to everyone, music is not a “test” there’s no cheating. Do what moves you, do what sounds good to you. Life’s too short to impress people especially in art where it’s supposed to be relief from the constraints of the world elsewhere

Yes I was being facetious :) any tool that helps create music efficiently is a great tool

Plus if you're using this in a final mix, you're probably not using it as intended. It's clearly a referencing tool more than anything unless you're going to use it as an effect maybe.

Kudos for this video. The calm and personable way in which you explain this is exemplary. So for me you belong to the "First Guard", so to speak. Over the past two years I've tried a number of vocal harmonizing products. I've never been satisfied with the plugins. This free plugin makes a very good impression and the results can really be heard. I will try it out as soon as possible.

Just like you, I can also hear harmonies in my head. My main function in my rock band in 1990-91 was harmonizing vocals. I really do love this plugin. It's definitely helpful for many. I'm so used to singing harmonies on my own, but I wouldn't mind using this as well. Like you said, DO NOT use this in your final mixes, no matter how nice it sounds in the mix. The real vocal will always sound better.

Nice video, well explained. I wish they made a harmony plugin that doesnt sound “ chipmunky”… Its like a low res version of the original yet these days we have the tech to transpose without the chipmunk effect as well as the ability to make a hi res copy of the original(but transposed)

I 100% agree. For now and especially for it being free. This is a great solution. But with how good technology and artificial intelligence is getting, I’m pretty sure we’re gonna have a pretty realistic sounding, easy solution here within the next few years.

@producerhat Жыл бұрын

yes absolutely. he's using doubles with panning. there is harmony in there as well. 1. record the lead 2. record two more times - pan one left minus 20 and pan one right plus 20 3. record the lead one more time "whispery" - add slight sample delay 4. record harmony twice - pan one left 10 and one right 10 5. add reverb conservatively without actually replicating it myself, that should get you in the ball park from what I hear.

You’d have to give me more of an example. Because if you have it on a separate track and are recording on a separate track you should still hear the track with the harmony playing.
