Nice suggestion/invite
Hopefully they send dry! Running reverbed stems in to harmonizers tends to output harsh sounding,.
if no one sends something usable (of course they will!),
there are a few creative commons things that might be usable and thus woudn't result in copyright strikes? slightly scraping a barrel here as there's not a lot.

Looking forward to the vid @Gavinski
Super excited for this. Think I own every Bleass effect app so far except one. Money is tight this week but next week, this, Fusion, and Beat Scholar are mine 😎
Thanks Colin ( @AlterEgo_UK ), I’d been wondering what it would do for non vocal instruments and you’ve answered that one 👍
Thanks Doug ( @thesoundtestroom ) it made me laugh that you were laughing like a school kid who’d just discovered helium balloons or a fart balloon 😊
Cheers @GeoTony
No problem. Thanks for watching
just getting a blank page from that Mr Gav!? can you find it again? i’m very much a rtflippinM kinda fnerd
You guys are totally forgetting about Drambo!
Indeed! I originally didn’t even give this a second glance until I saw the thread getting bumped. I watched a couple of the videos and yeah… SOLD!
Yeah, I’m getting close to a Friday night app treat. I’ve just been listening to the Zappa ‘for the money’ album with the speeded up vocals while weeding the strawberry patch, and I’d like some of that. Only problem I have is I don’t have an audio interface with headphones out for the iPad, so recording vocals could be feedback city.
I just bought it, love Bleass and don’t have energy and time to think if I really need this.
I had a yt video threatened for using a cc clip that someone else had already used. Fortunately they backed off, but if they don’t there is nothing you can do about it.
Think I might pass actually - I realized I find this kind of effect pretty cheesy - I can’t get anything out of it that I would actually want to use in a performance - a matter of taste, maybe.
Here u go!
merci
Actually - playing around more, for my personal taste, this is a lot more interesting applied to mono instruments than vocals
And I haven’t seen anyone mention it yet, if it was, my apologies, but I just noticed this is a 12 voice audio multi-out!
So you can run all of your harmonies to individual audio channels in your preferred host for using individual effects on each. (Of course the difficulty of setting this up differs from one host to another)
Super easy in Drambo!
Then again, I’m finding these multi-out channels rather noisy?
It opened the manual for me alright
I'm a huge MES fan and love his vocals. Not sure he can "sing" really, though.. No uploads? Damn. My search for anyone carrying on his sonic legacy continues haha
your guess is as good as mine.
not for me, i also got nothing
Thanks to @pruddo I've mastered using Voices in Logic Pro! And so far, I like this effect a little more than Vocal Tune Studio. I don't mind recording the audio into VTS, but controlling the tuning via MIDI is a bit easier. And the explosive harmonisation I can get out of Voices to create massive backing vocals is awesome. I usually tune my vocals with a flat pitch on purpose to create that "Eiffel 65" effect.
Ok, I’ve made the jump and I’m glad I did. @Bruques
For some reason it did not hear the midi coming at it from Drambo hosted in Loopy Pro but restart sorted that.
The real time button is an absolute must at all times for live use and I guess that’s just a more CPU intensive low latency setting. I wish it was enabled off the bat but can see why they didn’t want and army of older devices bitching about audio artefacts on launch.
One thing I’m a bit confused about is the blend of the incoming audio against the harmony voices. I’d like the harmony to be slightly higher in the mix but cannot find the setting for it.
I’ve also noticed that some processing is making the ssss/sibilants sound a bit weird, almost warbly, not sure yet what’s going on but it’s quite present when I engage BV.
All in all, just after the headphone test I must say it compares favourably against TC Helicon Perform VE and Roland Aira E4 Voice Tweaker.
Perform VE has superior auto gain, deessing and compression that makes it sound a bit clearer but I think with a bit of time spent on the chain that can be matched.
Someone show me the blend knob please!! 🙏
Having said that, I’ve just tried it on my other iPad using the built in mic and the harmonies sound louder in the mix. Perhaps I need to tweak the pre eq.
After a fair bit of tinkering, I think I have changed my mind about this. It can sound great with the right input. A very short video is coming soon, with a giveaway too!
There is no dry/wet mix?
Is it possible to have only one pitched voice with all other muted and no dry sound?
There is a dry / wet slider on the right of every single tab, just under the output section.
That’s correct however there doesn’t seem to be a way of having wet only signal or having the harmonies higher than the microphone signal.
Probably a lower sound quality approach and probably actually less cpu intensive, or rather traded off. Like Ableton's Beat mode of live time stretch rather than Complex.
As well as the dry/wet above the Real Time toggle, I found also having the 4 not midi voices not be doing some unison stuff, or simply turned off or down. When I turn off/down the 4 not midi voices, my channel which is the mic input channel becomes fully silent even though there is signal, until it receives midi, and I hear the harmonizer as hoped for/expected, then adjust dry/wet accordingly.
Curious, more so than the sibilance of the TC (different issue I guess, that was always about avoiding the sharpness)? Would be get to find out how this can be finessed then.
Also my feeling.
Perhaps using a de-esser somewhere in the chain would solve the harshness problem.
There is definitely a way to only have wet signal. Try the ‘disco alien’ preset. You can already hear that this is totally wet with no dry signal. Go to the voices tab, turn off voice one. Total silence.
I think what you need to do to enable sound only when there is midi is to go to the tune tab on the left, and play around with the settings til it shows only ‘midi’ and ‘all’. That way you can play the piped in audio as a kind of synth, with zero dry signal. Have you read the manual? I posted a zip to it earlier in this thread
