How Zedd Uses a Vocoder to Layer Vocals

[@newpianotutorials]

You wouldn't believe how unbelievably helpful this is !

[@imamusicmogul]

It really helps thickening vocals sometimes. It’s a neat trick to to have

[@martinkulik9466]

yeah considering you have the suitable chords

[@recipiend5711]

You are definitly the revolution of logic pro youtuber... thank you man

[@sean-ts8gu]

Losing my mind just a baby

[@notblakecallisto9027]

😂😂😂💀

[@espedale]

Make sure you switch the signal field (upper right side of the EVOC interface) from "Syn" to "Voc" . This step was not shown explicitly and is key to a good final result.

[@luchpietropaolo4958]

Awesome tutorial. I to thought that clicking clock sound was a clock until Zedd was talking with someone on twitter and they said it’s a blinker to a car (thus meet me in the middle)

[@imamusicmogul]

That’s actually cool to know. I feel like he also added a snap to it though.

[@imamusicmogul]

Unless it’s just a pitched down version of a car blinker. Interesting use of real life sounds thoigh

[@paul_nthny]

No, Grey said in their IG stories that the slow ticking in the first verse is the car blinker. The one in the chorus is a sped up version of it layered with Zedd's clock sample that he has been using since Hourglass

[@Distortz]

Thanks for the video Adam, I just wanted to point out that Vicetone also used this technique on their Way Back song and the stems are available for download over at splice which makes it a really good example to listen to

[@Thomasatigh]

Thank you so much! Very short and informative, just the way I like it!

[@homeschooledrapper9174]

Zedds honestly a beast in every 1 song he releases a year.

[@youth4181]

imamusicmogul best youtuber!

[@USCitizen93]

you are a genuinely a musical genius, I'm gonna spend so much time learning from you!!! lol

[@Vincentsplace]

I just found the best KZbin channel ever

[@TrayLittle]

Dope!

[@dariobonifaz]

I was wondering how Zedd does that yesterday! you are a boss

[@BrockDouglas]

Super easy to understand.

[@theuniverse1112]

You ar the king 💚💚

[@capthook1]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@kaisalhasan2398]

would you ever consider doing a segment where you react to/ fix our projects?​

[@OneOfSixMusic]

Search for ''Dylan Tallchief'' ;)

[@tom7131]

fix them yourself and become a better producer

[@henryleonardo3544]

@@tom7131 bruh you're kidding me, you're saying that on a video which is teaching, what are you doing here? by mistake? @kais alhasan just wants honest feedback, stuff like this isn't cool in the producer community go be a rapper if that's your attitude.

[@BAUGEMUSIC]

This is amazing! Thx for making a video about this!

[@imamusicmogul]

Your welcome. Thanks for watching and enjoying the video

[@yellowscorpion100]

Your videos are always great and helpful. I'm really trying to produce some music coming from no musical background so thank you for this.

[@imamusicmogul]

Your welcome. Happy I could help.

[@plcommercial]

you're very good. do you offer tuition in logic pro x

[@Sharked]

vocoder vst that work similar to this for making the same effect on ableton ?

[@svenlindecrantz3927]

Thank you❤❤

[@christaspence7469]

Wow this is pretty cool

[@jaquaghnlord2883]

Can you do a tutorial on how to use Waves “ Ovox” in Logic Pro x please !?

[@Syberdemonn]

great!! thanks m8!!

[@colinhoek]

Put some stereo mix on the vocoder. So that the vocoded part sounds farther away than the clean vocal. Also put some more low end in the vocoder.

[@dizz6619]

This tutorial is fire 🔥

[@djvanluk]

LIT 👌👌👌 THX MAN

[@mr.shredder5430]

Great vid thanks

[@nateflame6411]

Please do a remake of Kings Dead By Kendrick !

[@imamusicmogul]

On the list. Stay tuned.

[@joeydemiane2070]

U can use izotop vocalsynth :)

[@carlosrezende3366]

What the aplication do use in this video?

[@ivorubiomusic]

Awsome! Could you recommend me another voccoder plugin please? The evoc from Logic sounds quiet wierd, thanks 👍🙌

[@imamusicmogul]

I agree. It’s not the cleanest sounding vocoder. There are some good ones out there. Sonivox Vocalizer, waves morphoder and Izotope VocalSynth are some to look at

[@youngmosh]

can u do a tutorial on how to use isotope's vocasynth ?

[@johannesschyttlassen1209]

I'm interested in the technique behind recording the vocal into the midi-clip. Is there a specific way to do that?

[@Des_Armoni]

Could we get a first tutorial on that first verse to drop u played at the end?

[@JoyGolden]

Thank you ~~~!!!!this is so useful!

[@KarlMiller-DjKarl]

Yeah great info ... ☮🔥

[@onlyonSiMPLE]

IS there a vocoder that uses audio instead of midi?

[@headlessbeatz4015]

Hey musicmogul!! Thanks for the info!! There is one other technique on this track I can’t put my finger on, could you help explain?? It starts at about 0:48 of the track. it sounds like a background vocal. For example...The middle (the middle) following right after. It sounds like either a mixed pitched vocal or some type of synth in the same key as the vocal. Can you explain??

[@jamesantoine4318]

can you do a talkbox

[@Hagop60]

Could you upload a link to download the file you are working in?

[@王伊凡-t7d]

you are the best of best

[@imamusicmogul]

Thank you 🙌

[@karanchoudhary5851]

how to play the chords and the (with effect) vocal at the same time???

[@chesterahgren7521]

Where did you get that clock sound?

[@fabianvanderkooij1854]

awesome dude! how this your audio edditing software called?

[@curtainsos]

Its called “a poop”

[@theryanhays]

dude, awesome

[@youngmosh]

I'd love for you to do a tutorial on how to produce vocals like The Neighbourhood has

[@gastonfernandez6327]

hi!!!! whats is used fx clock

[@clearviewworld1164]

Where do you get your vocals from?

[@advanced4093]

Dope

[@BHBMafia]

Do vocals more bro✊🏾💯🔥

[@_JohnnySav]

Nice

[@vytautasurvikis8213]

BOUNCE OFF WITH THAT PROD HOODZONE REMAKE

[@jimmydooley81]

How did you come up with the midi part?

[@justinbrown5541]

Did you play the piano melody portion of the vocals?

[@imamusicmogul]

I recorded it in for the tutorial. I wasn’t playing it live although you could do that as well

[@ethanking3151]

What’s the software

[@yvkicvannn]

where did you get those midi chords?

[@kingvitospeaks]

Genius!!

[@imamusicmogul]

Thank you 🙏

[@kingvitospeaks]

Just recognising the prowess.. Made me feel like I should use that technique myself as I have always wanted to Vocode but didnt really know how it worked. Glad I found it.

[@frankiebautista7085]

Can you remake logics 44

[@robertstanislav4526]

LOVE YOU boyyy

[@Adhil]

you did you get the vocals in the midi

[@RobertMichael]

Great vid as always. I literally JUST posted my newest song and am thinking to myself I probably could've done this lmaoo

[@bboymac84]

Where did you find that MIDI?

[@Squidaniel]

I love you.

[@chaseharley5853]

link download?

[@Kshitijj]

Misleading title. This is maybe an incomplete tutorial of the logic vocoder.

[@NuggiezVEVO]

you are the fuckin man.

[@STEVENREEF]

Your a ducking goat

[@nathanbertie5862]

can you remake Dillon Francis's new track - We The Funk?

[@Julie-qr9ow]

Whenever I layer vocals I always sound demonic! How do I solve this problem⁉

[@Paczification]

I feel like the vocoded vocal has a lot more low end presence.

[@lukaszorszulski4788]

Please do a remake of any of 6IX9INE’s songs!!!!

[@meelooboomper3222]

I want the clock

[@kyledelfatti6430]

This sounds awful and muddy. Why the hell would you feed a poly input into a vocoder.....

[@BenRunyan]

@@theforevermachine I agree with your assessment.

[@ale9507]

Vocoders are supposed to have chords inputted into them. I'm not quite sure what you're saying. The reason it's muddy is because he selected the incorrect synth. If he used a saw, and put it through a lot of processing, like saturation, he could've achieved the original result. Single note inputs in vocoders are really boring.

[@omardude39]

Useful tutorial for a vocal. Your chords are really wrong though. Can we try and work out the correct sequence?

[@maestrodmc]

Great video. Great tutorial. However you did use the wrong chords on the vocoder. Doesn't quite sound like what Zedd is doing.

[@agentcalm]

Sorry guys...Im guessing you dont just add a vocoder directly to your vocal track as a plug in? Ive never used one of these at all.

[@tobistones2631]

no, its an instrument

[@DontAskWhyOfficial]

this is... 50% there

[@omardude39]

The theory is correct but the chords fed into the vocoder are significantly and noticeably wrong which detracts from the overall effect.

[@dash8_music]

Can you do a tutorial on this subject without stock plugins? I don't have logic I have FL Studio :(

[@foodreviewczars4868]

Remake psycho by post malone

[@imamusicmogul]

Added to the list

[@bennysmashups2002]

Psycho by Post Malone please....

Do pick it up by famous dex

[@bycmano3878]

🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

[@axaone4028]

Grey* not Zedd. They have been doing this for a while now

[@ashishsh2859]

Axa One tbh without zee this song wouldn’t have been relaeased, if you look at the backstory zedd was the one that kept working on the song and finding people to sing on the track when grey and all the other people behind this song gave up, so I guess he is the main artist in this song.

[@paininpain]

Zedd did the vocals part alone for sure coz he is the best in that, same style on the song stay too.

[@DontAskWhyOfficial]

wrong. zedd. did it since 2012. and started this pop trend with stay.

[@MrTheswip]

wtf why are you putting the 100hz section up by 16db??? On vocals you should cut everything out below 200hz at least

[@dennyh66]

Unknown Soldier that is not the vocal track that’s the vocoder track, it’s like a synth so you can eq it however you like, usually less mid-high cause that’s where the original vocal’s gonna be

[@AmrutKatigar]

Vocoder was used on base notes, not like how you showing

[@joost3783]

this doesn't even sound remotely close to the original

[@AMONEYG]

Remake Lil Baby “Freestyle” and Migos “Walk It Talk It.

[@masseffect3922]

That stock vocoder is horrible lol

[@1onenoone1]

sounds pretty bad

[@RedzaMusic]

its not a vocoder its a harmonizer lol
