*** New Ableton Suite 10 version is now included in the download!


This Rack is not included in Composition Power Tools by Side Brain



This week's Ableton Rack is due to countless requests to release my vocal chain.

I post short songs on my Instagram and I'm by no means a singer but thanks to some effects I'm able to make my vocals sound good.

Now I'm offering my effect chain to the public. Check out the download below.

This rack included a mixture of Gate, Pitch Correction, Pre-EQ, Compression, Saturation, Exciter, M/S EQ, Multi-Band Compression, and Parallel Time-Based Effects.

Essentially everything you need to turn dry vocals into production-ready takes.

Check out the video for more info and an overview of the rack.


This rack is using the free plug-in Roth-Air which is an amazing free Exciter you can download from HERE.

I'm also using Auto-Tune pro but you can use any pitch correction plugin you want, just place it before the Rack or after the Gate (first effect in the rack)

I've included two versions of the Rack one with Auto-Tune and one without

Here is a list of Free Pitch Correction plugins:

- Mautopitch

- Graillon 2 

- Gsnap

- Voloco


UPDATE for Huge Vocals!


I've now included a version of the rack for huge ethereal vocals!

It's using the Envelope Follower to get a big reverb with no tail.

Check out the 2nd video below for more info

Macros

Gate - A utility for a home studio with a noisy environment. Values of -45dB and -55dB usually work best. But it can change according to your pre-amp level.

EQ Intensity - Controls both Pre-EQ and Mid-Side EQ to clean the vocals and add depth

Verb - Parallel processes reverb using Ableton's Hybrid Reverb

Slap Delay - A short stereo delay to add dimension and size to the vocals

Air - Brighten and open up the vocals using the free Roth-Air Plugin

Compress - Controls the amount of the Compressor and Multi-band Compression

Top Harmony - Add a higher octave harmony using the Grain Delay

Echo - 1 bar echo with slight Auto-Panning (no Ping Pong)
