Hey Andy (or anyone else)- Do you know of a way to get that "breathey" & "whispery" effect done to = vocals? I've tried reversing an instance of the vocal, adding reverb = and a bit of delay to the instance, and then setting it as the = "background" to the original vocal (dropping its volume down as well). = This just sounds like a cluster f#ck. Maybe I did it wrong. Can anyone = help?

I thought it would be good fun and informative to have a thread where people join in and share ways that they have used and abused functions/features/plugins in the past and to try and come up with some new ones together. Some of my favourites: - use the granulizer as a normal sampler if I don't want the sample to play from the beginning. It has a control (that the normal sampler lacks) that lets you decide where you want sample playback to start from. You can even use this as a beat slicer of sorts: load a drum loop into the granulizer and automate the start position to play the different drums in the loop... cool! - you can get some cool 50s laser/sci-fi effects out of the fruity kick, especially with a bit of gating with the peak controller on the output. - use the fruity mute and fruity send in combination to apply different effects to the L and R channels of a single generator. You can use this to get the swirling Jarre strings effect (I have an flp of this somewhere if anyone is interested). I'm still working on these ones: - using the peak controller to do gated reverb on drums - use the formula generator to do automated log fadeouts: just set the start and end points... have fun, Andy --=20 The contents of this e-mail and any attachments are confidential and may be legally privileged.
