Delay Tricks and Tips(延迟的一些小提示)
For Fatter lead Background Vocals—Use some chorusing ( very short modulated delays) panning hard left and right to fatten up the sound . Use different EQ and reverb settings on the delays(Make sure you check the mix in mono to be sure that the delays aren’t cancelling .) Ride the chorusing effect , adding and subtracting it according to what sound best .
让背景人声(主人声)变得丰满――运用一点合唱效果(非常短的delay调节),然后把panning设置到极左和极右,这样能让你的声音变得丰满。 在两个Delay上运用不同的EQ和reverb 设置(你要确定一点,你的mix是在mono的情况下,delay的效果没有被取消)。如何调整你的合唱效果,在于你的声音在提高或者降低合唱效果后所体现出来的效果那个最好。
For Out of Tune Vocals – Use a stereo pitch shifter with one side tuned slightly high and the other tuned slightly low .Pan these left and right . The more out of tune the vocal , the more you might want to de-tune the pitch up and down . This does an effective job of taking the listener’s attention off the sour notes .
对于走调的人声――运用一个Stereo的音调移动器,对其中一边的音调做些微的提高,以及另外一边做些微的降低。让他们的Pan设置到左边和右边。人声的走调越是厉害,你就要做更多的上下移调。这样的工序,对于走调的人声还是有比较显著的效果的。
For Electronic Keyboards – A nice delay effect that simulates a small room can be achieved by using a stereo delay and sitting the delay times to 211ms and 222ms.
对于电子键盘――一个优秀的delay效果,能通过一个stereo 延迟以及设置成211ms和222ms的延迟时间(stereo)来模拟一个小房间的空间。
For Fatter Guitars – Delay the guitar about 12ms(or whatever the tempo dictates)and hard pan both the guitar and delay . This sounds like two people playing perfectly in sync , yet sounds bigger and still keeps a nice hole open in the middle for the vocals.
对于如何丰满GT――对吉他使用12ms的delay设置(或者是任何一种tempo的要求,delay可以通过tempo来计算)以及对吉他的声音和其delay声音Pan Hard(极左、极右)到两边(这里可以通过AUX 来完成,当然,这是建议,可以听听VAN HELLEN的早期CD,或者熟悉GT的朋友都应该明白这个做法)。这样听起来就好像两个人完美的配合。
For Fatter Guitars (2) – Pan the guitar track and the delay to the center ( or put your monitors mono) , the slowly increase the delay time until it sounds bigger . Increase it a little more for good measure . You’ll probably find the result is 25-30ms.
如何让GT变得丰满2――把GT的轨道以及他的delay声音的PAN都设置到中间(或者把你的监听变成mono),然后慢慢的提高delay time 知道他的声音变大(这里的bigger,不是单纯的声音变大,还应附带其他的效果,但还请大家自己去听了)。你可能会在25到30ms之间找到这个点。
For Fatter Guitars (3) – For years , LA session guitarists have automatically dialed up a stereo delay of 25ms on one side and 50ms on the other .
如何让GT变丰满3――多年以来,LA 的 吉他手都会对GT加入一个STEREO DELAY,一边设置成25MS,一边就设置成50MS。
