-- Settle an argument for me. Pitch content.

Settle an argument for me. Pitch content.

Some think the vocals are out of tune. Others think they're perfectly fine and just have some natural and pleasant drift to them.

First sentence feels wrong for me, second feels alright.


Posted by Deillon on Jun-27-2012 11:15:

fucking LOL'd hard at first sentence, but Storyteller is spot on.


Posted by Looney4Clooney on Jun-27-2012 11:42:

First string of words is quite sharp. I would cringe if I heard that at a concert or in a track so I think the issue is bad enough to warrant some melodyne


Posted by tehlord on Jun-27-2012 11:53:

It's weird, I can hear they're sharp but it just doesn't bother me.

It's only an audio demo I'm doing for somebody so I can drop or change the vocals completely if I wanted to.

I'll mark this day down. I was partially wrong about something.

First time for everything


Posted by tehlord on Jun-27-2012 12:47:

There's still a voice in my head saying you're all wrong.




































That's an easy opening for somebody.

yeah that was as sour as djryans balls.


Posted by evo8 on Jun-27-2012 14:45:

the way she sings "You" at the very start makes it sound weird


Posted by Deillon on Jun-27-2012 15:06:

It's like she's being punched in the vagina


Posted by stewart.m on Jun-27-2012 15:45:

yeah the first half sounds fucked up a we bit then she sounds fine


Posted by Richard Butler on Jun-27-2012 17:06:

Do sound a bit strained n forced mate - like my singing style. BTW I did vocals for that psy track of yours but fuk me the track just wont load up to the cloud. Maybe something do to with the fact you'd already limited the track and my additional limited so it doesn't clip has cause outages or something.

Do you know another place I could load em to without some big fuk off rigmarole?

Hey G. try to shift her first "you" word a 1/4 note back and see what will happen - I can kind of hear both sides in this and think that a small shift back will/may give you some more desire effect - just a thought.

The problem isn't whether it's sharp or not, but her pitch never stabilizes enough for the listener to determine what pitch it is.


Posted by Looney4Clooney on Jun-27-2012 20:11:

it is sharp. Singing is never a stable pitch. Your voice doesn't work that way. The pitch centre is not where it needs to be. It sounds brutal. Change it. or not, but that is the main issue that i would fix before anything else. sorted

The main issue is that I still don't think it sounds that bad. I can tell it's not autotune perfect but that doesn't displease the me.

I can drop the sample in a second as the demo is for a soundset, the vocals were just garnish.


Posted by J.L. on Jun-28-2012 00:17:

Really it's just the first word. Fix that one up and it will sound better.

The problem is that the first note is supposed to be a D but she is singing it sliding from a C to a D# and it is throwing the rest of the phrase up

There shouldn't be any issues with Soundcloud uploading even the most smashed of tracks. Weird.

do you not have dropbox? If not, PM me your email address and i'll send you an invite, then we both get extra space.


Posted by evo8 on Jun-28-2012 10:39:

Ive had problems in the past with soundcloud, the odd track will give an error like "this track is too hot" meaning its too limited or something (not a potential dance anthem )


Posted by tehlord on Jun-28-2012 10:45:

Really?!

How odd.

That's just them admitting their encoding is shit though.

Hipster cocksuckers.

not sure what to say. I find it painfully out of tune. Not just a bit.


Posted by tehlord on Jun-28-2012 13:50:

The offending sample has been removed. I shall also attempt to remove the suspected wax buildup from my ears.


Posted by tehlord on Jun-28-2012 18:57:

All fixed




It's only a soundset demo so just a basic melody/riff/arp thing.
