Dave Pensado (very well known mixer, if you aren't aware) did a video on how he achieves this.

I personally avoid doing this at all costs and go with a second tracked vocal, but if that ain't an option - the above could help.

Anyone know what type of plugin he's using to create the delays? It doesn't seem like a delay effect (i.e. echo delay), but rather literally delaying the original signal. Is there something in SONAR X1 that can do this?


Also, is there a way to create the "random automation" that he uses with the delay plugin in SONAR X1?

Beatles sounded cool when they got it right.  A few of them are sloppy for timing, starting way off from each other, etc.   Still a testament to how well they sang on key that you don't hear much pitch variance.

True.... they wouldn't have gotten away with that now in this age of computerized perfection.
