GMC Forum _ Recording _ Recording A Fake Crowd Sound To Back Up Vocals.

Posted by: Biggieholla Apr 6 2008, 11:58 PM

I was just wondering how artists record many voices so it sounds like a crowd is backing up their singing. I know they would obviously record many people at once, but as this is a bedroom project, is there a way i can fake it and say record my voice and have it sound like there are many people actually singing?

Yeah my friend did it, but I have don't know how... it is possible though!

Try to overdub many voices shouting, like 4-5 different voices and I'm certain there are some plugs that can make the "magic" happen

Well joe satriani recorded 35 people, 10 times I think, and that worked.

I'd reccomend doing like 10 takes of your voice, different pitches and stuff. Then just multiply them, and put them at different volumes ect.
