Watch the video in this post to see the entire process in detail. Viola! Now you have an amazing ambient synth pad out of a simple vocal sample. We used UAD Lexicon 224 set on a really crazy reverb to get this effect. Send your vocal synth pad to a reverb send with a HUGE reverb on it for ambience. We’re going to throw a little analog tape on here, turn the crosstalk off, and get just a little bit of this tape flutter going. We’re going to add one more UAD tape plug-in for some extra analog character and tape warble. You can use any plug-ins that you would like to use. We set it to mode number 7, kept the repeat rate pretty low, but turned up the intensity. We used the Rolland Space Echo from our UAD plug-ins to get that tape echo kind of sound and make it sound a little more analog. To add even more analog character, we’re going to add some tape echo. It’s starting to sound really nice now! Next we’re going to add some chorus for that vintage Juno kind of vibe. You’re going to want to slow the rate down and bring the output down a just a touch. To do this you can turn the cutoff down to around 3k and take the resonance down.Īdding Eventide Crystals creates a really fun, granular character. We used to Moag filter and took the drive down to give it a more analog feel. Next, we added an analog filter for character. We are going to low cut it and take a little bit of that high frequency information away. We used fab filter Pro-Q3, but you can use any eq you want. To follow this up, we are going to add an eq with a low cut and tame any high frequencies sticking out. We also added a chord progression in here.
In this case, we took the gain down just a touch, switched the mode to texture, turned warp on, and adjusted the attack and release just a bit. Next, you want to adjust the sampler settings to your liking. In this case we are using Ableton’s simpler, but you can do this in any DAW. To start you are going to drag your vocal sample into your sampler. We’d love to see what you come up with! Summary from video 1. Watch the tutorial, play around with this, and have fun. Almost any kind of sample material can be turned into an instrument. In this video Bryan will show you a basic sound design technique which will allow you to use a vocal sample and turn it into a synth pad sound.
Today we are going to take a simple vocal sample and turn it into a lush, ambient synthesizer pad in Ableton Live 11.
