Members b_f_c_99 Posted April 25, 2012 Members Share Posted April 25, 2012 Sounds just like an overdriven tube type of effect. There are several of them in Izotopes Nectar program that sound alot like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MikeyParent Posted April 25, 2012 Members Share Posted April 25, 2012 I am wondering if it is a 2nd vocal track... are you referring to the higher pitch voicing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Nick H Posted April 25, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 25, 2012 I am wondering if it is a 2nd vocal track... are you referring to the higher pitch voicing? I was referring to the distortion like mentioned in the above post. Is there any way to get that effect just by itself? (Im not sure what the nectar thing is that bfc99 is talking about) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PRSJim Posted April 26, 2012 Members Share Posted April 26, 2012 Overdriven tube, like when singers used to hook up to a guitar amp or simply overdrive tubes on the preamp of a mixer. I use a TC Helicon Voicelive Play for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Flagg Audio Posted May 10, 2012 Members Share Posted May 10, 2012 Sounds like overdrive. It's double tracked with a lower voice buried a bit... also a bit off-axis... like he's singing into the side of the mic or through his hands. For vocal distortion... use a harmonica mic through a guitar amp, overdrive a compressor, or... *cough* *cough* | V Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
