no problm… maybe someone knows!
thanks anyway 
I gather the type of vocal loop your after would be like the Steve Angello - BE track?
[quote]onetwoseven (30/06/2010)[hr]You could try doing what tom cosm does in this vid.

It’s a cool tip but i can’t see how it could work with vocals or certain sounds because of the reverse.
Have you tried melodyne? You can stretch out bits of the vocal? Otherwise Live 8 lets you stretch pretty successfully, you’d have to play around and tweek to get it sounding smoother and not so gritty, but it can be done depending on how long you want to stretch.
Otherwise looping is your option, maybe try using lots of reverb / delay to help blend and smooth out your loops or stretches.
Jeez - She has some set of lungs on her… Didnt realise she was on that track.
David Guetta - He’s a bit of a guilty pleasure really isnt he? Fair play.
I’ve never dont this myself - But… I always imagined that it was a Sample - with loop points set somewhere in the middle & then played in a sampler / keyboard / 1 long note. That way you could get something to sound like a Pad etc…
But - If you actually listen to that part, its more like a skipping sound, like its being retriggered, so it might just be a series of midi notes - or could even be as easy as a bit of chopped up audio with fades at each end.
Must try it out.
i try many things but always sound like a loop and not a continue voice like the example i made in the first topic :doze:

That doesnt sound like a held note to me Mate.
Listen to it again…
cant you just cut the audio and repeat it for a bit? cut a real thin quantized slice and repeat?

Thats how I think its done in this tune…
The Technique the OP is asking about is similar - but different, as it involves using a Sampler & all that ****.
ye i know the effect hes after. mirwaiz used it on madonnas tracks.
on the track “im so stupid” at 0.31 he uses it quite blantantly.
this is the gear mirwais uses. its gonna one of these that does it

First time I bothered to listen to the track, you can clearly hear it looping!
Theres definitely a really proper polished way of doing it…
But you can either cut it & paste it out…
Or:
If you have Live - Simpler will let you choose a part to loop. You can mess around with the fades / envelopes etc… till your brain feels like its been eaten.
Its not the exact proper way as I say… but you get the basic idea.
Same principal as all those old Synths - They had like 1sec of audio sampled into them by the Factory, just looped @ a point… Think the standard OOH and AAH Choir sounds… But they did that on everything.
Looping it like that - if you had a good sampler - would let you go all crazy with LFO’s and everything.
I need a ladder to get off this chair cos I’ve gone mad listening to looping vocals in Simpler. You can get some pretty interesting sounding stuff - out of anything!
Too tired to use Google properly - if anyone finds anything before me, please post it. Its all Audio / Sampling Techniques you need. CM did a special a while back on sampling, might be worth digging out if anyone has it.
ok guys, i’ll try some things u wrote.
thanks

Yeah it’s defo looped, you can use reverb and delay to help blend the loops together so they smooth out a little, just play around till you get it right. It’s all about the correct quantized loop aswell, otherwise it can sound weird. If you listen to Fergie, her looped voice bit is starting on the 16ths
it’s looped with some heavy crossfading on it.
