i hope there are more than one of you who will accept this challenge and join me to create a pixelated perspective xxx

Pitch shift trick on the speech synth


I have a Sav -I think it's by roboctopus- with CHK R02 DIZR02 OUT R02. Which sounds really cool.


For the spoken word thing, that's just crazy insane to do with LSDJ. I have "Mortal Kombat","This one is dedicated to all the ravers of the nation", "kill three million people and become god" and "resistance is futile", "expialidocious" written in LSDJ and I'm not gonna touch that speech synth again any time soon. It's slow, difficult and in my opinion, flawed. You can't delete wrong letters. I don't think it's possible to generate enough words with 4F and speech kit instruments combined to achieve what you want.

Maybe a poem, but I don't expect much room for a song

Panning certain tracks left and right, while keeping the wav (speech) center will help it come through the mix. This is a good practice in general, not just for speech. Give the listeners a soundscape.

In terms of arranging the speech so it sounds good... I'm not so sure that there are any "tricks," but just play around with good mixing and humanizing the speech (don't put them on every downbeat tick, try and give them space and change the syllable when it's natural to do so).

I'm rubbish at the speech things, so this is just some theoretical input.

I tried it a couple of days ago, it is pretty hard haha.

.....sorry if this has been discussed loads before but i only had a couple of mins net time in the library

and i know my english is rubbish aswell smile
