Laurie:
You can never do better than actually singing a part multiple times.  I always 
double and sometimes tripple my background vocals the old-fashioned way.  Some 
of the new and very sophisticated voice processors now have algorithms that 
more closely simulate the kind of give and take that goes on when singers do 
multiple parts.

  Gordon and Chris,



  Thanks for your suggestions.  Yes, while awaiting any responses I discovered 
the use of the nudge in this case.  But my husband doesn't like the effect.  He 
says it still sounds too synthetic to him.  Since this is a piece he has 
written, I told him that he has to try singing it again along with the first 
vocal track.  Hopefully this will give him the more natural sound he wants.



  Thanks again!  Guess I should have explored a bit more before posting but it 
took a while for the nudge idea to occur to me.



  Thanks again!



  Laurie

  Laurie:

  Are you using sonar 4?  You can copy the vocal track to another track but 
don't link clips.  Then nudge one a bit after the other.  You can use the slide 
function if you aren't using sonar 4, but nudge is really great for this sort 
of thing.

    Hi guys,



    I'm hoping someone out there has tried this in Sonar.



    I have a male vocal track.  I want to duplicate it so that it sounds like 
four monks singing in unison in a cathedral.  How can I do this in Sonar, or, 
can I do this in Sonar?  If not, is there any way to do this?  I've tried the 
chorus effect in Sonar and in Sound Forge, too synthetic.  I tried exporting 
the vocal track and then importing it to a different track.  Both tracks played 
together sound like one single voice, only a bit louder.  Tried cloning the 
track, same result.  Tried bounce to track bouncing the original track to a new 
one, same result.  Any way to do this?



    Thanks!



    Laurie
