Well shoot John, ol pal.  And here I thought I was just about to wrap up my "holiday" spendin.  Yea, I went and looked at the YouTube examples and then went to their site and listened to the demos.  Yea, I ordered it already dang yor hide:-)

Finally, summin' I had before myolpal.


I ordered this on a audioMIDI.com no brainer earlier this year. I'd better go check and see if there is a (free) version update.

I downloaded the demo and had a play last night. I thought the simple harmonies (2 part) sounded pretty good and would be a great way to quickly 'pretty up' a bridge or chorus. However, I couldn't get the thing to sync up to my project. I dropped the vocal part into Vieklang (horrible name) and started from the top of the song and the original vocal and the harmony kept starting too early. I tried messing around with the offset etc and couldn't get it to line up. Any tips?

I only tried the product once (heck it was $20 IIRC) and did not have any sync problems,

I only tried the product once...

My toolbox is overflowing with cheap and free plugins that I used once and never again. I'd clean house except most of them did get used - once - and therefore have to stay around like a guest who won't go home after the party. That's why I'm really picky nowadays, no matter how good the deal.

Thanks DJJ - I will try it tonight. I'm pretty sure I have already tried this but it was late :) Does the clip need to be cropped or should there be a silent section at the start of the clip (back to the start of the song). Sorry for all of the questions but there isn't much info in the manual.

Thank you DJJ - I will have a go tonight. I love this forum :)

ol' pal, I thought I was the laziest SOB on the planet until you said you wanted Vielklang (I think that's German for that little hammer you pound meat with to tenderize) to harmonize SAMPLED FRICKIN' HORNS? Dude!

what he is doing a lot of re-mixers use that same sort of technique , actually as a time saver. Think I was watching someone doing the same thing with melodyne.. obviously the source material, must be easy to translate frequency wise .. and as a remixer he was only getting stems of audio, no midi.

Hi
I've had Vielklang for quite a few years - I don't use it very much but it can be handy for vocal sometimes (I've never tried to use it on anything else but I would assume it would work just as well) - however you have to spend a bit of time adjusting the individual voices (glide / delay etc). When taken together for a vocal harmony part buried a bit in the mix it will sound OK - However when you listen to each voice individually, they sound dreadful! It is quite surprising to me that you can then make these "bad" sounding individual parts sound good together, but there you go!
As to the syncing problem, this has always been an issue but there is an easy work round.
Before I use a clip to input into Vielklng, I make sure the clip  starts right from the beginning of the track (1:01:000) - I have then found no problems with syncing. If the clip you want to use does not start at 1:01:000 either just stretch it or bounce it.
The only other minor issue is that if you set up a part to loop, Vielklang has issues in keeping in synch, so I don't  use the loop function - if you stop and restart, there are no problems.

With a price point like this it's a no brainer. I'm gonna pull the trigger.

Yup...even with Antares harmony stuff...or any of the hardware boxes...if you listen to the isolated "created" harmonies they sound pretty robotic.  But, in context, and eq'd and verbed correctly, they can sound just fine.  Go figure.  Melodyne is still the best solution for accurate harmonies.  But what Vielklang seems to be able to do is give you a quick leg up on CREATING the right harmonies quickly.  And, if it does only that, it's worth $45 IMHO.  Well see.

Better than you asking us to pull your finger, I'm sure.

You're pulling my leg

Any reason why I cannot get any audio out?

I installed it, registered it, add it in synth rack or add it in FX bin, I drag audio into it, it shows piano roll view of midi, but no audio comes out.

Am I missing something ?
