she can harmonize with herself?

unless she can sing two notes at the same time (and the human throat isn't capable of such a feat) I don't know how she could harmonize with herself

you could RECORD yourself harmonizing with yourself (and indeed Tori does on most of the songs in Boys For Pele), but I still fail to see how you could sing more than one note at the same time.

No, because your vocal chords only produce one note at a time. You can SIMULATE harmony through recordings or synthesis, but you're only singing one note.

If you're still having trouble with the concept, I can speak slower and with smaller words.

I know what a vocal processor is. I don't have any idea what that has to do with the inability of the human throat to sing two notes at the same time.

Trying to think of what you COULD mean, I've only been able to come across two ways you could simulate the effect of solo harmonization live.

1) pre-record one vocal track. Bad idea because you could get out of time with yourself. Some people still do it though.
2) artificially raise or lower the pitch of the voice singing, and play the doctored and original vocals at the same time. Usually sounds really horrible. The only time I can think of that I've heard it working really well live was Jarvis Cocker of Pulp performing 'party hard' at Glastonbury 1998.

don't get me wrong, for more than one vocalist, good harmony is essential. However, for a quality solo artist, synthesized harmony sounds bloody awful.

If you spend enough money, you can get a machine that will harmonize with everything you do, and it'll sound like 4 of you in perfect harmony. In fact, people who know how to sing harmony without a machine dislike the synthetics.

Granted, everyhourdylan's shown that he has no concept of what a good vocalist by giving us a link to his band. It's pretty obvious that he doesn't really understand a vocal processor beyond "It maekz k3w1 n0YZ."

The worst part is that most vocal processors, whether purchased for effects or synthetic harmony, blow. I use bass pedals for my vocal effects, personally. Nothing like Chorus, but I use Fuzz and Flange.

A lot of big groups that do vocal processing live have a couple laptops backstage doing the processing. This includes most form of vocal processing, except the standards, like reverb.

They've got some really cool programs for effectively altering vocals and pitch, but it's still mostly for people who want 4-part vocals and lack an ear for harmony.

I'm sure you have. And you're proving how much you know by offering up erroneous, false, and stupid information.

Good plan, chief.

Crying when someone calls you a moron when you demonstrate yourself as one.

All that knowledge of vocal processors, and you can't even use one to make your vocalist sound like he knows how to sing. Good demo.

if you've been working with vocal processors for years, then surely you know that a great voice sounds MUCH better unprocessed than processed. You'd also know that all the technical wizardry in the world means nothing if there isn't a voice to work with.

You'd also know that a singer is as much a musician as someone who makes their music with an instrument.

Of course, it would require he had some understanding of the human voice, and listening to his demos, he's pretty clearly clueless...
