Most people do that with editing.

Select the first syllable of a word. Copy to clipboard.

To make it stutter in place, move to the beginning of the selection, press 
paste, enter the number of repetitions, and make sure that replace is selected.

If you want it to repeat somewhere in time with the beat, then move to the new 
spot, press paste, enter the repetitions and select replace as before, but fill 
in the interval field with the spaces between stutters, such as 240 ticks for 
16th notes.

A lot of editing like this is obviously slow. That's cause we're blind, of 
course. The sighted approach is to copy a segment of audio to stutter/repeat, 
enable snap to grid with a value like 16th notes, and then just click with the 
mouse to drop copies of the segment at different points on the timeline. Since 
snap to grid is on, they can just roughly click in the right spot, and the DAW 
moves the pasted segment to the nearest 16th note.

This choppy stuttery vocal thing is cause everyone is editing on a DAW and in 
Melodyne now. Once you've split a clip in to bits based on parts of words and 
phrases, it isn't difficult to drag the bits to different locations, to click 
on individual segments and stretch them out, to reverse them, to put auto-tune 
type effects on specific segments of audio, etc, at least if you can see. You 
can still do it if you're blind, but, as usual, it takes a lot longer.

Hello,

Can anyone recommend a plugin for vocals to stutter, like the ones used in 
current hip hop and dance?

Thanks.
