Deep voice

[LDJM]

If I wanted to make a certain vocal track on my mixing a "deep voice" effect, how or what effect should I look for?

I use Studio One 2 Professional.

I think you're looking for some sort of pitch shifting effect. Not pitch correction or autotune, but a plugin that will lower the pitch of your track per semitone.

Can you post an example of a song that has the type of effect you're looking for? Pitch shifting might not be your best option.

If you want to sound like Darth Vader, just go buy one of those Halloween costume mask/helmets - 'tis the season!

If you want a deep voice, the only real answer is to get someone who actually has a deep voice.

Do you mean like in this song, at 1:15:
Avenged Sevenfold- Betrayed (Lyrics) - YouTube

What's your definition of "deep" - people confuse pitch with richness/timbre a lot....

Many famous "deep" voices aren't particularly deep at all, they're just incredibly rich.

Ok So I work with rappers, so I meant something like this:

Like the beginning of this song:
November 18th - Drake (So Far Gone Mixtape) w/ Lyrics - YouTube

or like here starting at 2:02:
Eminem - My Darling Bonus Track to Relapse 2009 + mp3 download link - YouTube

I know you can get octaver's for guitar, not sure if that'll work for voice

 

[guitarplayr82]

Yeah, those samples are definitely done via pitch shifting.

I've tried the Reaper plugin for pitchshifting (ReaTune? ReaPitch? - can't remember, I'm at work), but putting it an an octave or even a fifth down sounds like shit. Maybe that's the effect you want ...
