The best example of this effect has to be Initiation by The Weeknd, it's the whole song with the formant shifting automated, and that was 2012.
this
That entire song feels like a bad trip
Real ones know
Or "If I Was Your Girlfriend" by Prince, 1987
a great suggestion
looking at when this was uploaded, my timeline prediction is that 4batz saw this video, then used this style to BLOW TF UP

you know what karboyyy, i think you might be onto something
As a collector and DJ of soul music for over 3 decades, I must say that your voice is outstanding. You have SOUL!!
Keep doing your thing, peace and love.
Thank you so much! I appreciate it :)
Great voice mate! Love your openness to share and calm vibe ! Glad I found this! Awesome tips 😎🎵 thanks !
yooo if you want to create a high pitched sped up drake sample you can do the opposite aswell! record your vocals with the varispeed slowed down (like -15%) and then pitch it back up again. now remove the highs, add some reverb and it’ll sound godlike
So good!
@@JPMESwhat mic are you using bro?
@@tonybright4566looks like an audio technical one maybe AT2050 or one of those
Didn't like your comment so it stays at 69 bro but just wanted to say keep making music and use my beats bro! ❤
U mean a Kanye west type sample.. don’t do that.
Varispeed is a very old trick used on analog recordings such as MJ's BAD album. Some of his hits were sped up by 4-5% compared to their original recording speed. Nice video.
I always wondered if that is what Andre 3000 used.
Madonna's whole first album was done that way. Prince also used on a few songs from Sign O The Times and other songs from before then
@AdeZ- where did you find that info? Can i get the links?
@@JohnnyDubb23 I spoke to some of the engineers who worked on the album, and also for instance listen to "The Way You Make Me Feel", it isn't in a specific key, it's in between 2, because it was sped up via varispeed, not by a certain fixed amount, but sped up until they thought the track sounded good and danceable. The original speed when listening to the original multitrack is around 5% slower than what you hear on the record.
@@JohnnyDubb23 compare Another Part Of Me album version with the 2012 remaster as an example. Also you can kind of hear when a song is speed up. The Jacksons - Can You Feel It from 1980 for example, MJ sounds like Mickey Mouse lol
The Beatles had 4-channel studer recorders modified to use the varispeed technique. Sometimes they record instruments an octave down at half the speed of the song and then when played back at normal speed, they sound an octave up and with a different tone. They also recorded songs a little faster and then lowered the speed of the tape and consequently the time and several semitones so that the sound seemed more dreamlike, for example in the song Rain from 1966 this effect is very well achieved. Very good video, greetings from Argentina.
bro im SO HAPPY to hear that artists are still singing true rnb!!!! THIS is music!!!!!! please tell me you are going to release this song in full!
love how straight to the point you are! quality content. ill be sticking around for sure
Fast, clean, on point tutorial. Although it wasn’t anything new to me I did appreciate your work. Cheers
Thanks man 👌🏾
Algorithm doing the most 🔌🧘🏾♂️⚡️💯🔥
Bro something besides the tutorial. Your voice is amazing! Keep going!
Thanks man! I’m never gonna stop!
Yea I saw Leon Thomas doing this on live one day a few years ago . Been doing with every beat . You can actually make 2 beats in one doing this . I’ll play some real musical stuff at a slow bpm , speed it back up filter it . Instant vibes .
but his sick af
@@playboydior yea he go crazy . This been going around for a while , nun new
I actually don't think they are affecting the vocals, what I think is happening is that they are using Soundshifter on the whole song. Frank Ocean did that on Nikes. His vocals are pitched up because the whole song is pitched up.
Well yeah, both can happen. You can do this effect to the whole song or just vocals
someone called modern vocal production an arms race lol. like who can make the craziest stacks w the most clever effects
I couldn’t agree more lol. I do like it tho, so many sounds we ain’t heard before
wow this singlehandedly solved my problem with remaking the music thank you so much
Wow! I love your voice!
Keep these tutorials and showcases coming!!
your vox is fire bruv
Thanks man! Appreciate it!
FIRE 🔥ima try this in logic pro thank you!
Could you figure out a tutorial for Protools/FL?
Shifting vocals down a couple pitches really does have a cool effect , especially when you have great longer vocal notes that yo7vr now brought into a longer listening time , good tips , thankyou
I do that. I've been using between -1.44 and -3.33 downpitch shifting on my vocals to get a cadence while layering for a while.
Real ones know 🫱🏾🫲🏽
The Beatles did this exact varispeed trick for the drum sound in "Rain" back in 1966.
you got some pipes my bro! love the singing
Much appreciated bro!
that video is fire, short and informative, I really like the editing and your voice, it's definitely a subscription
Your clean vocals are incredible
Varispeed is great, too, because you'll always be sure that your shifted vocal is in the same key with the beat, no matter what you change it to.
Great video showing 3 different ways to do it!
There’s a metal band called Sleep Token that does this a lot! Sounds killer. Great video!
Pretty sure that’s just how his voice sounds dude just has a deep voice
@@Viper-dz2kw yeah hes got a very meaty vocal sound, but its not from any formant shifting (most likely). BUT! Maybe they used it for the dubs in atleast "The Summoning". Or its just cut at the top so it sounds meatier. idunno lmao. but i definetly think the main vocal isnt formanted! :)
Great video, and you have an amazing voice bro 🔥
Thanks man! Appreciate the love. Stay tuned for more
Much love for the insight brother. You have an amazing voice - real Giveon vibes ✨
Little AlterBoy by Soundtoys is what people use the most for this effect
Yup
amazing plugin all around
fucking FANTASTIC video. great pacing and delivery of novel information; avoids the "tutorial" format vibe entirely.
Brother this is hands down one of the best R&B tutorials Ive ever seen. Could you show me how to do this with pro tools?
The best vocal effect on earth is learning how to sing really really well without any vocal effects. Practicing & practicing till you sound like an angel without any vocal effects. When vocal effects are added to this later on, it sounds effortlessly perfect
your voice is insane! thanks for the tips
Had to subscribe! Im ready for the next lesson!
Thanks! Coming soon ⏱️
Bro actually has a great voice
Quick but informative, thanks for this bro 🙏🏻
varispeed is a life hack
man thank you so much! I love creatives like James Blake & Frank who use this feature. super dope tutorial!
Cool old school effect. You can really expand upon this technique by either automating the formant shifting or setting the pitch tracking to a midi input. I love Soundtoys Little Alterboy for this.
Best logic tutorial
bro what, your voice is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Clean video fam, to the point.
great video, educational and quick, much appreciated
Thanks man!
damn i been using flex pitch for years and never knew it had formant shifting functions too
Every day’s a school day
Every word you spit is gold, amazing song! 🔥👍🔥
Thanks bro you gained a Sub !! I also shared it with other producers.
Love this style of video! Bruh props to you 🔥 Keep em coming!
Thanks man, more on the way!
Bro, I don't even make music and I watched the whole damn video. Solid editing
Came to say that thumbnail is fire
Thank you thank you 🙏🏾
I knew you could pitch correct and vocal transform, but didn't know the varispeed. There's a few other things you can do, but love your whole aesthetic and brand. And your voice is fuggin mint bro!
more tutorials like this! it'll be fire to have a section where they are all side by side! flex pitch seems the most convenient for my work flow but varispeeds effect is undeniable!
Your voice!
Plus the way you teach is great, details!
I use Flexpitch all the time, never really touch the formant shift. Good tip, glad I watched.
We're gonna need that vocal chain king great vid
Voice is cold, I use FL but I learnt something cheers bro
Good information and good video. Thank you.
You're most welcome
i need to see more of this from you this was GAS and super nice with the examples.
Good to know thanks!
Great voice mate! Love your openness to share and calm vibe ! Glad I found this! Awesome tips 😎🎵 thanks !
ooooor, you could change your project to 48khz instead of 44.1khz so recordings you do in the project will have more information, then use alterboy/manipulator/vocal bender from waves, and put formant down 2-3, you get the same effect without having to sing it 2-3 semitones Higher than the original.
Super clean, and simple, BUT; will use more processing power from your computer.
If it dont handle it well, and give u system overloads and such, just bounce the instr out, and do this in different project, then export the vocal track however u like it, into the original project.
A looot of artists in the past have used varispeed on tape recorders, cus that was their only option then, but we have an insane amount of options today! Try this one out whenever you can afford either of these plugins (they sound a LOT better than the default logic formant/pitch shifter... Used that for a while. But the artifacts sound so naaaaastyy! xP
Good advise!
btw, i think you got something going on here, if you kept doing music tutorials like this, i think you'd be up to 100k subs in a years time. u have a teaching spirit to u
second that, informative, well articulated and to the point
100% feel this
Definitely, I just watched from my home page. Hope u make more!
Thank you for this tip because I wanted to use the effect for select parts of my songs!
