The Beatles 'Because' using a hardware vocal harmoniser

[GregB]

Hi.

Several others have posted on this song. I've added my take which may be of interest to performers who want real-time harmonies.  This was done NINE years ago, before I was into HD video, quality audio recording, home studios and DAWs!   

 

The song itself is at 2:36 to avoid the explanation.
The TC-Helicon Voice Live Touch I used was the very first model (now up to version 3 or 4).
 

 

Cheers,

Greg

Hey Greg,  9 yrs?  That's cool and interesting.  Thanks for sharing. Do you use either of the newer versions in your music today?  I've no  experience using a vocal harmonizer..haha.

Hi Peggy. No. Once I became comfortable with a DAW, such gizmos, like all gee-whiz gizmos, are more pain than gain. Useful for live performance (if able to switch on/off correctly throughout a song). With a DAW, I'd rather sing the harmonies.
