Enter the chord progression key in the EXHALE top bar so the presets are in tune as you audition them. To get the most from Slices, it's helpful to have a chord progression prepared. If you already work with vocalists, the hook you produce can be a guide for them. This makes it easy for producers to come up with vocal hooks when vocalists aren’t around. But instead of a grouping together a semi-random collection of vocals, the presets in Slices are sourced from the same vocal line. Like Loops Mode, Slices maps vocal snippets to MIDI keys C2-C3. To stand out in crowded Spotify playlists, it’s more and more common for songs to have multiple hooks.ĮXHALE Slices Mode simplifies the hook writing process. Vocal hooks aren’t restricted to choruses, but often feature in them. It’s the most accessible and memorable part of a song that, when done well, will circulate around the minds of listeners for days, weeks, and even months. The hook has a special place in hip-hop and pop. Since each MIDI note in the predefined range fires off a unique vocal sample, you get exposed to a wide variety of sounds-both melodic and rhythmic-within in a matter of seconds, providing the inspiration needed to start a new song. To break through a creative block, arrange a MIDI pattern between C2–C3 and audition it with a selection of arbitrary presets. With four macro controls (Talk, Pitch, Motion, and Wet) the loops can be shaped into new forms. You can trigger a single loop or play multiple at the same time. I found a simple solution to this common music producer problem with EXHALE Loops, a mode that maps 13 unique tempo-synced vocal loops to keys C2–C3 via MIDI. Do you program some drums? Tweak a sample? Write a progression? There are a lot of routes to take but no clear direction. Starting a studio session with a blank DAW is intimidating. In this article, we look at three important aspects of modern hip-hop and pop production using the two plug-ins in tandem: song starters, vocal hooks, and choral sections. With over 500 presets of modern vocal sounds, it only made sense that we gave EXHALE a test run with our own VocalSynth 2 as a dedicated processor. EXHALE is a vocal engine for playing, creating, and manipulating the human voice, created by our friends at sound design boutique Output.
