I now have a brand new Dream Pop Vocal track preset based on this video (thank you for that). It has three vocal tracks in a folder with the C->EQ->S plus sends to a folder with a delay track, two reverb tracks and a send just from the hilite to the pingpong delay (and other effects) track in case I need it. One click and I'm ready to lay down vocals. You've got a nice system here.
Awesome content here bro! Appreciate the unconventional but awesome approach to a great sound. Multiple vocals down the middle , No panning.... proof no way is the RIGHT way, just another way of getting to your end goal. Awesome video bro! Appreciate ya!
Love that touch with the ping pong delay, just putting it at the end of a line. DIY like that definitely works. I'd say another way to do it is also to sidechain compress it to the lead vocal so it doesn't get too washy and the words still have some clarity. I'm a sucker for this genre for sure. Knowing what's enough and what's too much with the fx will definitely do the trick. Thanks for sharing the wisdom Willeh!
I’m trying to find some tutorials on a stick figure sound. This is kinda getting to it. Especially the way you added ping pong to the end. Seems like it carried it more.
Willeh, thank you for this amazing video. Truly eye opening. Or ear opening... I had a question: how do you approach effects for Dream Pop backing vocals, like on something like Alison (Slowdive)? The oohs and Ahhs just sound so dense on the some songs and I can't seem to get anywhere near it. If this is worth doing another video, would ya, could ya? Thanks, Scott
when u duplicated the tracks in the beginning. did u run into phase cancellation? or does this not happen since the fx are added? it sounds clean in the video but im just curious how/ why since duplicating is usually not recommended? or maybe you recorded them twice and I missed it
I didn’t duplicate the vocal tracks but rather overdub another vocal track of the same line for a natural chorus effect. So they are actually 2 separate recorded vocals instead of one vocal track being duplicated. That I can recall, I haven’t had any phasing issues when overdubbing my vocals.
Also, any phasing issue can be easily fixed with the Utility effect in Ableton. However, I don’t have to do that when tracking my vocals since there hasn’t been any issues.
Curiosity: when you double your vocals do you copy and paste or do you sing over it? I’ve done both so may times and I still can’t decide which one is best
Great question! I usually always overdub my vocals (track over). There’s a more organic chorus feel to it because of the imperfections of each individual vocal track.
I recommend doubling them up. You'll notice the slight differences between the tracks make it sound less copy and pasted. It' makes for a better effect in my opinion.
Open Preferences, then go to the Audio page, click on the Input configuration button and make sure all of the Mono ins are selected and not greyed out. You should be able to select any single available Input on your hardware as Mono Inputs on any audio track you create! Hope that helps.
This is exactly how I wanted the vocals to sound but I had no idea how to do it until I saw this, thank you! :)
You are very welcome!
really cool video. the idea of cutting the delay track to create space & clarity is great
I have to say that delay sounds really good, didn't imagine it would. Listing to this though my big speakers!
Just my favorite UA-cam channel, so inspiring and educational I can’t believe it is free.
Thank you, Matheus! I appreciate your support for the channel🙏🏻
best tutorial out there for ableton vocals, such an underrated channel, thanks so much :))
Thank you so much!!! I really appreciate that. Glad to be of service!
@@bananalabsalso, I was wondering if you did 1-1 lessons at all?
No I’m sorry I don’t.
amazing, thank you for the patient explanation and artist's touch ❤
Fascinating the details of the voice editing. Many, many thanks for that! 👍
Thank you for watching!😄✊🏻
the ping pong delay is almost like a vintage tape delay if you eq it like the telephone kinda preset
Yes! I do that sometimes! Sounds great 😄

Hell yeah, Brotha! There you go👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 🙏🏻
Great content. We learn best through experience. Love seeing you get right into it and just start working with the program.
Yes! Couldn’t agree more. Failures are just stepping stones to helping us get to where we want to go, my friend. Thanks for watching!
Love the video! I’ve been doing three takes and panning two hard right and left and putting a tiny chorus on the panned takes.
Nice! I gotta try that! Curious to hear how it sounds. Thanks for watching!

Thank you so much, James! I appreciate your support!❤️💪🏻
Thank you for the great video and the love and care you put into your video
Thank you so much!
Sounds like Elliot Smith with the raw doubles. I always liked the way that guy recorded his vocals.. dude loved the multi dubs and harmonies
Great video, Willeh!! Never knew Ableton’s stock delay is so 🔥!
Right!? ✊🏻
Good vox with ableton reverb isnt normal, you a genius
Thank you, Barno! I appreciate you

Interesting! Never thought of doing it that way. I’ll definitely consider trying that out. Thanks for much for watching and for your input, Darla!
Thanks! This is so great I can’t wait to use it!
Absolutely! Thank for watching!
Do you have more psychedelic presets for the voice? Excellent work!
This is superbly done
Thank you!
This is awesome. Great tutorial. Thank you for the hard work you put into these.
Thank you, Nick! I appreciate you!
oh my goodness thank you so much. This is exactly what I need
Glad I could help!
wow my shitty vocal now sounds angelic! thanks, subbed
Glad to help! Thanks for the sub!
Thanks, very useful! I applied these effects to my vocals and it sounds much better than before. :)
Absolutely! Glad to help!
I love your voice!! This was very helpful thank you 🔮🎶🌸
Thank you!!🙏🏻☺️
That was awesome and really good. And funny.
Thank you!
can i find this song anywhere?
I need to listen to the whole song
how would you go about vocal aligning in ableton? for doubles, harmonies etc
awesome, thanks for this
How did you have zero sibiliance with the raw vocals ??
Sounds great dude 🦀🗣️
Thank you, Brett🙏🏻
You are goodamm genius

Which microphone are you using for vocals?
Shure KSM27
Newbie question: Did you just copy/duplicate your vocals when doubling it or you re-recorded it? TIA
Does this work for fl studio?
"asssiidd maaasaayyyeeuuhhhh" LMFAO
Is this song on spotify??? I would love to hear it man
It is not. Actually, non of these songs on my channel are on Spotify. But maybe some day!
@@bananalabs PLS GO FOR IT!!! 😍
weyyy que cool que existe este canal
Muchas gracias!
Is this song published somewhere? Because this is great
Thank you!!! It is not, unfortunately
Adding reverb on the actual group track instead of through an Aux - it's like the opposite of what everyone tells me to do haha, now I'm not sure.
I say do with whatever works for you, Tyler. You got this 💪🏻
you are a god for this video
Thank you for watching, I appreciate you!

did this song ever get released? its cool!
No, it didn’t. Thank you!
@@bananalabs it’s a cool tune bro! Super wavey
@@rawmaterial9679 Thanks, I appreciate that!
what can you use in place on the eq eight. i have intro
You would have to download a free eq plugin for ableton
Do you have a link to the vocal preset?
hey, how do you make a track mono on ableton? when i record my voice it automatically goes into a stereo track
Open Preferences, then go to the Audio page, click on the Input configuration button and make sure all of the Mono ins are selected and not greyed out. You should be able to select any single available Input on your hardware as Mono Inputs on any audio track you create! Hope that helps.
this is amazing ..What microphone and guard you using mate?
Thank you! I’m using a Shure KSM27 and a Sterling PF2 pop filter
What theme is that?
I’m looking for beats in this realm, what type of beat is this??
damn.
Super new to Ableton. Are these stock plugins? For vocals?
Yes! All stock plug-ins that come with Ableton
@@bananalabs amazing. Thank you for the speedy response.
Ty
You’re welcome!
Did you pan the vocal doubles and harmonies or leave them straight up the middle?
Sometimes I do but very little. Or I’ll throw a widener effect form a vocal synth plugin
When you double vocals do you pan them at all or leave them both centred?
Occasionally. But I would pan the doubled backup vocals and doubled harmonies for sure.
would you consider selling these presets?? like a vocal template? :)
Never thought of that but I will look into it and consider! Thank you!
0:40 is the biggest secret in the whole video
😬💪🏻
I luv u
I'm using Cubase😭
Oh no! Maybe sometime in the near-future you can jump on board the Ableton Train!🚂
Almost thought this was Dave grohl😅
que wea mas inservible
gracias
PD CHACAO PIZZA
Nice video, but I have no idea what you are saying in the song.
Not that it matters
