Hello everyone,
I was wondering if anyone could help me. I am trying to achieve that 70's style backing vocal technique as heard on all the pop rock hits of the time . It's the " Pad " style backing vocal technique I'm trying to achieve with the up front breathy style ooohhh's and aahhh's ( If anyone can understand that !! )
I'm just curious how it was achieved and more so now I'm having difficulty reproducing it myself !!
I've been recording 1st 3rd and 5th harmonies and doubling them then panning hard left and right but it still just sounds like vocals as opposed to a wash.
Can anybody shed any light on the techniques used in this style of recording ??
Many thanks
John
