    Learn how to create realistic vocal harmonies in Cubase 12 without a background in music theory using the brand new scale assistant inside of Steinberg's Vari-Audio. Experiment with many different musical scales automatically until you find the perfect vocal harmonies for your project.
    I'll teach you two different methods for creating complex and realistic vocal harmonies inside of Cubase 12 without understanding complex music theory.
    NOTE: Audio Alignment is not available in Cubase Artist and is not necessary for harmony creation. All other tools used are available in both Pro and Artist versions.
    00:00 Introduction
    00:34 Method 1. Create single harmony part using a single existing vocal take.
    02:12 Earlier versions of harmony auto generation tools
    03:33 Bounce audio clips (important)
    04:21 The new Vari-Audio interface
    05:20 Editor scale options
    08:11 Method 2. Create multiple harmony parts using multiple vocal takes.
    09:46 Separating vocal takes
    10:34 Fixing vocal cadence with Vocal Align Tool
    11:40 High Harmony
    13:17 Low harmony
    15:08 Routing vocal parts and finished result

    A little too fast for my ears but the possibilities are endless listening to your results.
    can you take two measures of a vocal and show us slowly how you could add a third above harmony to the lead using the bounce audio technic?

    From where I sit, this was doable a long time ago with another software. The fact that this is integrated is great.results are quite listenable and gives you the tool to try all kinds of combinations so you can bring your preferred lines to the 2 top session singers in L.A. or Nashville when you get the songs re-recorded for Real!! Not a cheat, a creation tool. Nice presentation, easy to follow, well done! Thanks.

    Hi Steve, compliment! A very well done and very easy to understand tutorial. It is also a blessing for the somewhat older musicians who grew up with the music of the Sixties & Seventies that a Smooth-Jazz and an earthy Rocksong was chosen as a "working and sound example". It's almost panicking these days when you see how much "music" is made these days with "MIDI chord packs", Hip-Hop and autotune. These 3 or 4 chord progression "loop songs" sound alike 😐🙈

    You can also use octaver to pitch shift for similar effect (it's quicker if you just want a straight alto or falsetto and tenor part, but more limited in what you can do).

    Hi Steve, thanks for sharing some light on this DAW the video is so sweet. I'm lost on the fact I cannot find my scale assistant under vari audio time 11:52 just not showing in sidebar. any ideas where it could be lurking? Looked through preferences, but no luck

    • @Featherlightstudio
      @Featherlightstudio  Před 2 lety

      Hmm, Scale assistant shows up in Cubase Pro/Artist/Elements but Vari Audio 3 only shows up in Cubase Pro/Artist. Clicking on the down arrow to the left of 'Scale Assistant' should show the drop down menu.

    I do exactly what you are doing Steve( with out a chord track ) and when I make my selection from a duplicate track bounced the selection for create harmonies is grayed out and can not select ? Any Idea's on what I'm doing wrong ?

  • @MathieuPrevot
    @MathieuPrevot Před 2 lety +1

    First time I heard "realistic harmonies". What do you think: does Ligeti provide realistic harmonies in Lux Aeterna or Clocks and clouds ? Or Scriabine in the 9th sonata or Stravinsky in Le sacre du printemps ? No, really. "realistic" is very unfortunate, because parallel 5, 6, 7 or anything do are realistic ! Liszt, Chopin, Stravinsky, Debussy used that a lot ! Maybe canonical to a certain aesthetic (baroque or classic, I guess, or old jazz).

    • @Featherlightstudio
      @Featherlightstudio  Před 2 lety +1

      lol ... as opposed to harmonies that 'sound like' Auto-Tune, T-Pain, ect. Each has its place in production, just depends on what your style of production needs.
