Listen "Lightbulb Vocals (Figuring Out Formant Shifting)"
Episode Synopsis
In my last convo with Harley, we chatted about mouth shape and using a tool called formant to manipulate audio. Here I share examples of how to use formant on a vocal and other instruments, some of the history of vocal manipulation, and why this technique helps to define the music of the last ten years (and into the future).
Want to hear my music (where I use formant sometimes sparingly and sometimes aggressively!)? Check out my links at: ScoobertDoobert.pizza
And here’s a remix mentioned in the pod, where I use formant a bit unconventionally. 2:49 is a good example of formant shifting on a noise sweep as a transition between sections. I use it some throughout the song too: Highs & Lows (Remix)
