My advice on harmonies is simple. Do them live. I don't use TCH or anything else to create a harmony part out of the original lead melody vocal. That is one sure way to get some super processed, fake sounding vocal harmonies.


Use whatever method you want to get the harmonies correct including TCH. THEN.... learn each of the different harmonies and sing them into individual tracks.


I have used my piano to compose the harmonies.... record it with midi.... and then learn the individual parts with everything else muted.... then record them with the bare minimum amount of tracks needed. Fix the pitch issues with melodyne and you're done.

While TCH is quick, and short of hiring harmony singers, this is the best option for decent sounding harmonies on the cheap.

The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
