Vocal effect in Karnivool's "New Day"?

[TheTrevorStrain]

Hey guys,

This is probably a pretty novice question, but I can't figure out the EXACTLY what they did to get this sound. At 2:32 in the song "New Day" off of Karnivool's Sound Awake album, the chorus vocals come in with the line "How do you all speak with a lying tongue" and the vocal mix changes for that chorus, and it sounds huge when that line come in.

WHAT IS THAT?

It sounds like it's either doubled, or it has a loud, short delay, or a second mic is pulled into the mix that wasn't being used earlier during the verse or something.

So it's just doubled?

yep! might also be the guitar player singing... dunno what they did on the album but he does the backing parts live

Yeah sounds like that part is tripled, the vocal on the right is a little later than the rest and there's definitely still a centered vocal. The contrast from single loud vocal to 3 vocals panned hard makes it sound big.

Congrats! you don't need to buy more gear for this effect.
