Today I'm showing how the new standalone MPC vocal effects can help even the weakest of vocalist turn their voice into a very usable instrument! The vocal effects of the 2.10 firmware update are probably my favorite feature, and as someone who lacks any vocal confidence, I use them frequently! Enjoy the video :)

@-The-Darkside Жыл бұрын
@@sederquest in guitar which is the same concept, you would nearly always want reverb last, as its replicating the last stage of the chain (like you're recording in a hall, or small room etc) , autotune or octave would go first as you want anything affecting pitch to go first in chain, harmonizer needs something to harmonize which in this case is autotund voice, doubler would have to be next as you don't want it after the reverb. That's the best I can explain lol

@@FreeBeat Indeed, after the introduction, I was very positively surprised of your singing voice. Sure, even for vocalists, there is always room for improvement, and in general I guess many people have a mixed relationship with their voice (myself included). I just think it would be unfair and rude to rate it badly and I think it's nothing to be ashamed of or so. Of course, if we compare ourselves (are compared by others) to professional singers, 99% of the population sucks at singing...
