Most of the vocals we love are doubled, tripled or otherwise layered into a production-perfect sound... Especially with aggressive vocals and heavier music!
Learning how to double your voice well can save you a ton of vocal heartache and actually save your voice because you start to realize that THE SOUND you've been searching for lies as much in the execution of good production techniques as much as it lies in the performance itself!
legend has it he's still doubling the vocals to this day
😅👌
This made me laugh. Haha
😂
😂😂 I Know right
Indeed he is...
The ability to replicate the same take exactly as the one before is the real skill here!!!
One of your best covers yet You sound spot on to Rob Zombie
It's insane how perfectly it doubled! Awesome skill.
Right?! It was really important for me to put out a confidence building video and demystify the "produced vocals" . I noticed people get down on themselves because they don't sound like recordings, but in reality we're not that far away!
@@chrisliepe Mostly people get frustrated after first recording. I think you doing great job showing people "the insides" of processes. All these doubling, back vocals, various tehnics tricks. It's very easier to demotive people than to inspire. Thank you.
That’s a good song from Zombie back in the day. Good vocals where it sounds almost identical to Rob
Can you make this in-depth video about this?
How you sing as per track, and how it’s edited.
Thanks Chris 🙏🏻
I'd LOVE a dragula video!
I know it's not a nickelback song but I'm getting some serious Nickelback vibes from this.
it's Rob Zombie
@@theredoctopus3196ouh nice. Im not familiar with, can u tell me what song it is?
@@0neLessCar its called Dragula br Rob Zombie
Never heard of rob zombie crazy
@@mac6624 he is pretty lit
would love to see a full tutorial from you on vocal doubling! Walk us through the thought process that goes into the panning and the different types of tone and when to use them.
Check out my recent Dave Grohl and Jared Leto videos. Lots on doubling in both videos!
Bro this sounds SO good!
Wish I could get my double vocals to sound this clean haha
I've found that if I try to sing in the most natural way, I automatically replicate my delivery on the double takes. They come out very similar. It's a little trickier if you have to do something you find technically challenging.
@@felixmarques your doubles should almost sound the same from your main vocals.
Same for me it’s just a tempo issues tho
The best thing I’ve found is learn your song in and out. No reading or hesitating. That way you can play with it. Doing different levels of loudness and changing your distance to the mic even hitting different frequencies with different takes
Its surprisingly fun lol. I did this for my Black Dahlia Nocturnal Vocal Cover and it sounds so damn brutal.
I freaking love this song!
Doubling is a must for me! Although I cap it at around 3 to 4 takes. Anymore than that is excessive for what i record. Plus, you can't double vocals when performing live (as far as i'm aware), so i like to keep it at a minimum
Bros gonna knacker out this song
i looooove doing this
Zombie is one I can do all this is so inspiring to increase production techniques. Versatility of epic proportion 👊🏻
I do this but also copy the original track and then phase it by 1% this creates a hamonistic double up . If i want to create an echo i move the copied track forward enough untill it starts its delay and use this with another vocal recording, and it comes out brill
10hours version please 😁😁
Don’t give him ideas please
Goes to show the importance of production tricks.
Thank you sir
Great video bro . Nostalgic AF
2064... Still doubling it
Stack em up like firewood
Great performance & energy, love the variations of takes to give it that full textured sound.🔥🔥🔥
Any time I double vocals, it's a hit or miss. Timing and pitch control is very important to land layered vocals.
Waves vocal doubler is a good alternative lol
That was quality
This is beautiful dawg lmaoo
Damn, this whole time I thought he said “in the back of my khaki van”. “Dragon layer” makes so much more sense.
haha
✨🙏🏼✨
✨🙏🏼✨
This sound reminds me so much of that song from Chucky ❤❤❤❤❤ # bride of Chucky # rob zombie
Need full final sound
Could also just use a doubler plugin but word nothing wrong with manual option !
Doubler doesn't sound as wide or as in tune but it has its uses
Hey I was just wondering what studio do you use? Is it free? Do you know of any free ones i could use?
I’ve noticed this from Lauv
Only need one take (which you can also build by taking the best bits of several takes). Then copy & paste.
No it doesn’t work that way. You need the multiple different takes for the different textures and imperfections that come out with each take! Copying and pasting would just make the single take louder.
Damn bro chill
I wonder does delay+revereb love create a slightly similar atmosphere?
Not really. That only puts your vocal into a space where doubles create separation and mass.
I'm not sure if that many tracks is still doubling, more like layering... But still awesome stuff
man making doubles hard i be off time and allat 😂
I just saw Rob Zombie front row singing that song at Sonic Temple in Ohio!
Ага, я тоже так стал делать))) отличный эффект
No female dogs were harmed in the making of these lyrics. 😂
Can you explain how you do it? Like I’d every take the same or do you do it slightly different everytime?
Yes! ruclips.net/video/ZLeARR3IW4M/видео.html
What software is this?
Pro tools
Do you change the EQ for each layer ??
Does anyone know what the pan levels are set at? Where the first 2 takes straight up the middle?
Maybe the last 2 tracks were 100 L & 100 R.
Maybe the middle 2 were at 80 L & 80 R.
I’m still learning.
2 centre, 2 dubs hard L and hard R, two harmonies hard L and hard R
Waves plugins?
Which video is this from?
Song?
Pan settings ?
All hard left or right
What program is that?
Also whats the best free program I can get to do exactly this?
Pro Tools is the program. Garage and or Reaper are free and really good!
@@chrisliepe thanks!! You will hear me on the radio soon 😁
That's sixbling not doubling 😅
🤘💪👍false cord ?
Yep!
@@chrisliepe 🔥
Doubling is easy… but if you’re in a homemade booth that’s a small box… don’t bother attempting this lol
Totally depends on lots of factors though... I've heard vocals recorded in very small closets and doubling/layering can sound GREAT!
@@chrisliepe I guess yeah it would depend, I’ve had quite success doing so when I loaded my booth full of random things to create a reflection , but I’d say microphone would also be a big help, right now I’m using an at4050 and it’s just not working for doubles at all in the box lol
@@rylandweet7750 Switch to a dynamic mic like an SM7b and your space will matter MUCH LESS and you're vocals will sound way better in that small space!
@@chrisliepe yeah I tried the sm7b , it was nice but the foam created a nasty sound , without I still get some of the box, I just actually put 2 socks over my at4050 and it’s actually giving me the sm7b sound but better , I use to do this with my old at4040 back in day but man it sounds nice!
Hey Chris i am here at work doing my singing routine lol and i thought to myself i gotta reach out to Chris and ask him if he could make a series on the band grey daze Chester benimgton. I think you'd be shocked to hear the isolated tracks.
it's gonna be pretty hard to put it into mix. ain't it?
Wait isn't this the cookie monster thing that you told to avoid
Following
Its fine if you do it once in a while.
That’s what I was thinking bro🤔
It all depends on the placement where the sound is generated. If it sits too much under your voice-box instead of above, you might hurt yourself (cookie monster). I'm sure Chris uses a technique that works for him. Lots of compression ("lifting something heavy") and fry. :)
@@phosphorusmusick that too
Why not just copy and paste?
It would just be louder and not wide and textured. We need the subtle differences between takes to create the rich texture you hear here ! :)
It's the same recording so panning left and right will just end up sounding mono because the waveform is identical
Control + c Control + v
not the same at all! the actual doubling provides all the width and texture that you love and appreciate about these types of vocal performances. If you just copy and paste it, you'll just make it louder. :)
@@chrisliepe and you might get phasing issues as well
Why don't you just copypaste the track?
You need the different textures provided by each unique performance. Copy/paste just makes the single performance louder
Song?
Dragula by Rob Zombie
