Melodyne • Creating harmonies from single vocal tracks

  • In this video, Rich shows how to create realistic harmony vocals in Melodyne when only a lead vocal is present. He advises on the early steps of using Melodyne to capture the key and chord information and create key and chord tracks, which makes creating quality harmonies even easier and more musical. He then illustrates the ease of copying and pasting notes, as well as using the various backgrounds to make it easy to experiment with harmonies. Next Rich uses the various editing tools such as the Modulation, Amplitude, Formant, Timing, Attack Speed, and Time Handle tools to add texture and character to the newly created background vocals. Finally, he demonstrates the processing flexibility of duplicating tracks first and creating separate harmonies in there using Invert Note Selection.

    Thanks for the superb tutorial. I really like the conciseness...no rambling, just great info. Not only do you offer the technical stuff with clarity but include the genius of how to be creative with the tools in program. I no longer see Melodyne as an aid in audio production; I see it an an an indispensable tool. Again, thank you sooooo much.

      I agree but it won't sound as good with a male voice. Try it to see it for yourself. Female voices have slightly less sonic character which makes pitch changes sound more natural than with male voices.

    I can see this being a useful tool for auditioning harmonies (I'm actually going to try this out tonight). That being said, once you've found what you want, why not "humanize" the harmony by actually singing the harmony? Mute the lead vox, sing along with the robot, then delete the robot. Maybe this doesn't apply to pop, but in the age of digital recording I want to preserve as much soul in my music as I can.

    • @celemony
      @celemony  3 года назад +26

      Yes, you can absolutely do this and use Melodyne as a composition or arrangement tool only. Or you mix the Melodyne version with real recorded harmony vocals. Lots of choices. 🙂

    First time I used Melodyne we discovered we could use Melodyne to re-work vocal melodies and worn-out harmonies. Once that's all sorted out, my artist can ding the new lines, and if they can't hit the changed lines, that's okay, cos I've still got the Melodyned lines 😁

    Hello David.
    First of all, thank you for the great tips you have already given me. They have helped me many times.
    But this tip was particularly helpful because I often work with polyphonic melodies and only have one recorded voice available. I learned a lot. The editing of how I can make the voices sound different is wonderful. Also I never realized, that i can turn notes oon an off. WOW!
    Nevertheless, I much prefer to work with separate tracks, as this gives me the opportunity in the DAW to edit the background tracks more individually with effects, etc. (make them quieter, switch them on and off, PAN, etc.)
    Best regards
    Helmut

    It's such a great programm. It's undoubtly the best software for deep editing audio tracks in the highest possible quality. My feeling is that nearly all professional producers use it but they don't talk about it.
    Have you ever tried playing around with the overtones spectrum (not harmonies)? You can deep dive into the resonances and tame the energy of dedicated notes or support the character of an instrument. Not just one or two even or odd overtones, like in some tube overdrive plugins - but all overtones!

    Melodyne requires much more effort than other pitch correction . Melodyne also is the most subtle pitch correction but sooooo worth it .. ….it can be a hassle to adjust and it would be great if included in their studio package is a live /version . Still amazed at what melodyne can do. Amazing software . The vocal effect like Cher is easily achieved but there’s so much more melodyne can do . Imagine an entire almost perfect vocal and one word /vocal off. Melodyne subtle artifacts is where it’s at. No I’m not affiliated with celemony

    Cool, but wouldn't it be quicker to duplicate the main vocal track first, then work on the duplicate(s)? Also, wouldn't it be quicker to just click drag the selected main vocal note(s) in the duplicated track up (or down) to the 3rd or 5th position, etc? I believe these techniques would yield the same result, but be a bit more streamlined, especially when copying whole vocal sections to harmony positions (then making individual note alterations to tailor the harmonies). I do love your amplitude and timing, etc., suggestions to humanize the performance . . . great ideas. Comment: I find when using this technique the harmony parts created starts sounding strange and synthetic and some phase doubling changes the amplitudes in some spots which requires a lot of trim adjustments and EQ'ing. Perhaps the amplitude and other techniques you mentioned will solve some of these issue. Thanks so much for the great presentation.
