Hi, Derochette.

In comparison to singing the song, it's really slow. But because I'm making songwriting decisions as I go along, it's pretty ideal.

Plus, it lets me make changes even after I've done what I thought was the final mix, it's pretty cool.

I've also written a plug-in that makes it fairly easy to edit the vocal parameters.

As for the nasal tone... yep, that's an issue. I keep trying to fix it with EQ, but my ears aren't currently up to the task. But I'm still trying!

Nectar 3 vst from Izotope may reduce this effect. It can be tested for free for 30 days, I believe.

Thanks. I actually posted a version last night where I had taken off a number of effects to make the vocal less harsh, and changed a few of the phonemes.

I've got Nectar 3 Elements. I'm not sure why I couldn't find it before, but it's probably because I never learned to spell "nectar" correctly.

I'll play around with it and see if that improves it.

To come back to your composition, it's original and well done.

Thanks! laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
