I would like to have real tracks that feature vocies both male and female singing ooh and awes, doo-wops, and other non specific vocal phrases for chourses and bridges. I think it would add a nice touch to a song I would be performing on my steel pan by adding some extra human elements to songs with the possiblilty that in the feature if I do learn to sing and write a song, I could use them in an original tune.

Loops can often help with fill in parts such as oohs and awwwws, as well as some intros and endings. I would love to see PG incorporate intros and endings sets that can be used with like realtracks.

+1 for the oohs and ahhs

I would think it would fit perfectly as a rythm type instrument (akin to the organ sounds used in some of the bluesy type syles)

They'd fit in beautifully with any type of ballad, classical, Celtic etc....

It's been a popular request for some time now

Not to highjack this thread but you can take simple piano or string BIAB MIDI tracks and use a good sounding vocal synth to get excellent oohs, awes, etc.


Life is short so make sure you spend as much time as possible on the Internet arguing with strangers.

Yes a vocal synth would be a good way now, you could use the BB Chord Output, as unless you have "Don't Transpose RealTracks" checked in Song Settings, you will get Barry White or a choir boy as it transposes.

PG need to add "Don't Transpose UserTracks"

You can see here http://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=245885#Post245885
listen to the Love Again demo down the page.

http://www.musicradar.com/news/tech/sampleradar-327-free-vocal-ad-lib-samples-564055


BB Chord Output will also save in the Midi file "MID" File on Disk, Biab > File > Import > Melody from MIDI file > 9 only, then load the vocal VSTi in the Melody track.
In Realband you will see the BB Chord Output track.
You can transpose the octave of the BB Chord Output midi up or down to suite the range.

It's something the team should be working on as it's been asked for frequently over the years

I second this. Will be a great addition to RealTracks.

At the mean time, if I may share a free plugins featuring real singers that may suite your need:

I think it's a great companion to RealTracks. Perhaps someone can compose/design Usertrack from it in the future.

Happy Songwriting!

Now that I think about, I just started taking vocals lessons and I feel having these generic back up vocals would benefit us all in any style and make our vocals shine without having to pay backup singers.
