Create Big Back Vocals & Harmonies From One Voice! Advanced Pro Techniques. Works with any DAW.
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 лип 2024
- Create vocal harmonies and lush backing vocals in Logic Pro X, from just one vocal. Using these advanced mix techniques, by manipulating just one voice, you can create thick background vocal parts, rich three part vocal harmonies, and even change the melody of the lead vocal, without bringing the singer back into the recording studio.
Presented using Logic Pro X, but will work in any DAW, like Protools, FL Studio, etc.
We'll cover step by step...
1. Creating realistic sounding Doubles, Triples & Quadruples (without using a doubler or chorus)
2. Changing Melody of Lead Vocal and using the original melody for the lower harmony
3. Create 3 Part Harmony Using 2 Different Methods. Using Flex pitch on Logic Pro X, (you can also use Melodyne or Autotune) And using Izotope Nectar.
4. Create Talkbox Effect using Izotope Vocalsynth
5. Group, Process and Automate Background vocals.
6. A/B Comparison to the dry single vocal, Vs. the Full Lush Background vocals we created.

Haha!!! Thanks Bossa! 👍 -Arty
Same
Bossa Supremo Same here.
agreed
This is how all tutorials should be like !!! A BIG Thank you.
Thanks so much! Words of encouragement make me want to do more!:)
"✨👍🏼🌇 THAT'S BECAUSE ARTY SKYE IS THEEE CONSUMMATE MUSICAL PROFESSIONAL & ACCURATE PRODUCTION MIND! EXPERT SKILLS THAT ARE EASILY & CLEARLY COMPREHENDED...ARTY CAN CONVEY INFO BY 'THE BOOK', & ALSO INCORPORATE HIS KEEN INSTINCTS!!...{he's probably blushing somewhere 😌, because he's knowledgeable, yet humble...RARE😅!}
I COULD GO ON, BUT GO & EXPERIENCE HIS PRODUCTION EXPERTISE, PERSONALLY OR THE 2nd BEST SOURCE...💯RIGHT HERE, WITH THESE AWESOMELY DETAILED & INFORMATIVE VIDEOS!💯!!
Really Happy & Prouda You, Arty...to say they're Amazing? #ANDBEYOND🤜🏼🤛🏻✌🏼🎤🎛️🎧🎶🎬👏🏼✨"
WOW. I’m not a novice, but you literally just tripled my workflow capability in Logic after watching just 3 of your videos. Life changing. A HUGE Thank You!
I like that you talked about techniques that we could apply to the tools that we have instead of teaching something that was tool specific. Thanks!
This is by far, the best "cut to the chase, detailed here's how we do what the video title says" video that I have ever seen. No 10 minute intro speech, just a brief overview & let's get to it. I have always assumed that a lot of video creators put all of the extra speech in there hoping to have more ads placed. The ads and the wasted time get old quick. Another option for some of what I saw here, for people who do not have the software shown here would be to use the Detune effect if you have detune. Detune is often seen in guitar effects. It can be placed on different vocal or guitar tracks and set differently as was saw here for each track. The altered melody and harmony effects would stll need to be done with Melodyne or something similar.
Hey you American guitarist, (my real love-I have 16 of them!) I really appreciate your comment. I'm still new to this video thing, and still learning, but a comment like this is insightful into what viewers want. And thanks for the great advice on using the Detuner. It's a great tip!!! More videos coming very soon (this week hopefully) so stayed tuned. 🎸 (get it?) -Arty
I agree this should be a staple of all future tutorials, you make learning fun and clear.
The best demonstration on how to create many harmonies off of one voice! I truly needed this!
Thanks. I didn't see much out there, so we did it. Please check out some of our other videos as well 😉
Just came accross this site and this feed and wow Its been truly helpful. Thanks. Keep em coming!
Wowwwwww this was eye opening. I've seen videos about this before, but not even close to the same results. I can't thank you enough. You can't always have singers around when ideas pop in your head. Awesomeeeeeeee....
Only just discovered this channel and it's saved my life!! Because of Covid I have 5 or 6 unfinished tracks that had basic vocals but no harmonies or backing vocals. This tutorial really helped me get the demos finished before I get the vocalists back in to finish for real. Thank you
I like that he wrote "This girl is not the actual singer" besides the image of the vocalist. Shows what a honest person he is :) Great Video, thanks!
Arty you’re a legend. I’ve always wanted to achieve a delay effect that sounds like a singing crowd (kinda like at concerts/clubs when an audience sings the lyrics along with the performer) and this helped me ton!! Thanks!
That doubling trick is mind-blowing. I keep seeing people saying that the only way to properly double vocals was to make 2 separate recordings. Thanks for taking the time to make this video!
Just discovered this channel this morning, and just when I thought I've subscribed and followed all the ones I need, you come along and prove me wrong. Big thanks Arty, your enthusiasm alone paired with the quick and concise approach makes you stand out. Subscribed. ;)
Hey Mantis, thanks so much for your sincere comment. I really appreciate it, and you give me encouragement to keep it going!!! 👍
Je découvre à peine la chaine et je me prends une claque qui me booste l'inspiration. Même si mon anglais est catastrophique, je peux vous dire que vos explications sont visiblement claires, et quelle technique ! Cela mérite mon abonnement.
Wow, That's a solid tutorial. Straight to the point and a ton of content. That's how it's done.
Dude You are Awesome! I've been looking for years for a video that will reveal the "tricks of the pro's". You're doing everything right for a youtube content provider.Great persona. Expert skills. You deserve a few million subscribers at minimum. Good luck.
Thanks Inca! Not sure anything is a trick though, (though it's a great buzzword to use-lol) They're techniques. But pleae check out the rest when you have a chance. And share it if you can! 🍺 Thanks, Arty
Yes, great techniques to take notes from and apply what was taught. Thank you for your time and energy to create this instructional video.
Very interesting techniques. When you solo the original vocal you can really hear the difference between the fake vocals. Nice video.
I've been searching for a video like this! Thank you so much!💙
THANKYOU SO SO SO SO MUCH! You explain this so simply and clearly and I am so so grateful! I was so stressed 10 minutes ago but now I know exactly what to do! Thankyouuuuu
Thank you for taking time to share your knowledge with us. I'm new to audio production but old enough to appreciate your presentation skills as well as your production knowledge. This is one of the best general knowledge audio production tutorial videos that I've seen. I'm so glad I found this channel and have subscribed to the channel.
Hi Jim, thanks for the kind words. Glad you like what we're doing. More videos on the way soon :-)
this is the only video about fake doubles and harmonies that actually sounds real and good
Hey DJ Dulla, thanks for the comment. Hope it helps! So why don't you have any music up on your UA-cam page? I'm always curious to hear what everyone's doing. -
@@SkyeLabMusicGroup i am an artist and producer part of a group we started with a friend and my brother, and i upload all my music there since it has our total audience, all my music is uploaded on that channel and our groups spotify aswell as my spotify page, if you wanna check it out its called Troppos TPG on youtube
I have watched a few of your videos and must say that you are a great teacher, you explain and demonstrate things very simply. Keep the videos coming cause I am sitting in the front row, ready to be teachers pet. Keep up the GREAT work.
Hey Kenny. Thanks so much for this great comment! This gives me the encouragement to get my ass in gear and make more videos! Much appreciated :)
You'd have to print subtitles on the inlay card. Her diction is brutal!
Good job bro! One of the best vocal harmony tutorials I've seen hands down. You make it worth watching.
Thanks T, I really appreciate that! Check out a few of our other videos if you have a chance. 👍-Arty
@@SkyeLabMusicGroup absolutely
This is thee most helpful video on this topic I have seen so far. THANK YOU.
Glad it helped :-)
Thank you my man. Creating backgrounds and variations are not the easiest thing for me to do because I primarily work with rappers and I have a limited experience with singers. But I must say this has been one of the most in depth videos I have watched on created background vocals from one track. Thanks man. I appreciate it. 👍👍
Hey Cahlaj, thanks for the comment. Working with rappers is similar, but when you have Missy Elliot coming in, you gotta have it right! You should definitely check out the video we did on working with singers in the studio. 22 quick tips. You'll be more prepared. ua-cam.com/video/_SPOQYXF8aU/v-deo.html Thanks, Arty
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! There are a lot of, and I really mean a lot UA-camrs with channels on mixing and music production that should watch your videos and learn how it should be done properly. So a million more times thank you Arty and SkyeLab Music Group for the perfect instruction and content!!! Blessings for you always!

Very, very good video...I usually work with single line vocals and am always trying to find a way to spice them up like this. What you did as far as your vision for the parts coming in out made the track go to another level. Thank you, well done.

Hey Ryan. Glad you enjoyed it! Yes, many more videos in the works. Stay tuned 👍-Arty
Wow best tutorial I’ve seen, thank you!
Hey Ahmad, Thanks for that comment! I really appreciate it. -Arty
Wow .. amazing skill
As an African musician and recording artist living in Europe, I had this problem of not having back up vocalist, only one girl was good, so if I knew about this technique on Logic Pro X I would have used it and became a superstar. Now that I know I say a big thanks to you for your revelation.
Hey Bookmark, Yes, and no. We didn't really have this technology in the '90s. But cheesy pop will always be cheesy pop, so and sometimes we would do similar things with the Eventide harmonizers. 👍 Arty
Great vid Arty. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! Where's your recording studio?
sir! this is so amazing! thank you so much
Very nice!
OMG! Brilliant. I'm working with young kids' voices; this will be a big help.
