THERE'S 'SOMETHING' ABOUT THE VOICE!

About over 6 months ago i came across this video of a live performance by the fusion band SNARKY PUPPY FT LALAH HATHAWAY. The song was called: 'Something'. After 6 mins into the song Lalah does something incredible with her vocals. She is able to sing a 2 part harmony by herself (No external Vocal or Harmony effects). I have never heard anything like this before. I was amazed.

How is Lalah able to sing these harmonies? According to an interview Lalah said that she has been able to do this since she was 12-13 and still does'nt know how she does it. However, there are other vocalists that claim that they too can do this.

One possible explaination could be Overtone singing. This is where the singer manipulates the resonances. There are different variants of this (Tuvan throat singing , Inuit throat singing etc).

Have you got any other explainations how this could be done?

Until next time.

CUBASE & LOGIC PRO X- BYPASS ALL PLUGINS!

A few weeks ago someone posted in Facebook group about how to Bypass ALL plugins in Cubase 8.5. (As some of you may know i use Cubase 8.5 in the main studio). It's a lot quicker than turning off each individual plugin. Here's how to do this: CUBASE- Go to File Key Commands Mixer (Section) Bypass Inserts Type in box a key (e.g. B etc) Assign OK When you press that key all plugins should be bypassed on the mixer LOGIC PRO X- As far as i know at the moment you cannot just press one button/ key & turn all the plugins off simultaneously. You can row by row.
