AeroUSA Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Does anyone know if the harmony settings can be applied to vocals in order to have a 3rd above (like the TC stuff does)? Also does anyone have any good tips for setting up a vocal mic. Which effects and eq etc do you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundog Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 They don't sound good on vocals. TC stuff applies formants to the harmony(s) so they don't sound like chipmunks. We need dedicated vocal effects on the Helix because it has a vocal mic input! For vocal, roll off the bass, use the LA Studio Compressor, Parametric EQ if needed. Then light on some delay and a plate reverb. The mic pre in the Helix is excellent. That's why I wish they would add a good vocal harmonizer. I could use it for my sax!

AeroUSA Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Thanks for this, do you know if anyone has added a suggestion for vocal harmonies to the list? Even just a 3rd above would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several people have requested this in Idea forum and no one listens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundog Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Yes, I totally agree. Custom preset scales/key are the way to go. The "intelligent" modes aren't as fast and reliable, especially with ambient background noise. Besides, folks know what key their songs are in anyway!
