VocAlign on Guitar

[Clark Kent]

So the VocAlign is able to fix the two guitar tracks to play in the exact same timing.

Let me start by saying that I much prefer the unaligned sound played tight. This was just a funny idea I had since there are times when guitars could've been played a whole lot tighter together. I would just record guitars tightly instead but sometimes you don't have the choice.

So here it is. First time around it's VocAligned and second one is natural:


I don't know if this was a good comparison since I seemed to play the riff quite tightly in the first place but still it's almost inhumanly tight the first time around. Try it if you're interested... thoughts?

How??

 

[Fox Mulder]

You're right about the edited version being inhumanly tight till 0:14, before the chords move in. The rest sounds impressive. I'm gonna give this a try, thanks!

Mashreef: Use it like you'd normally would, I guess.

I'm assuming this is done on the DI?

I'm assuming this is done on the DI?

Yeah it works better that way. If it's being done after distortion then I dunno how well VocAlign can measure them.

 

[Fox Mulder]

What are your thoughts on this against elastic audio, Clark?

Doing this can create a lot of weird phasey artifacts between tracks, so be careful.
