Something I’ve discovered creates a really near effect when working with multitrack DAWs, is to have two almost identical tracks, but not quite the same, one panned all the way left, one right. For example, duplicating a vocal track and changing the effects just a little bit and panning the two apart. When wearing headphones, it creates a really cool spatial effect I think I’m going to be using in some of my next songs.
At the moment I’m working on one called ‘Hard Vacuum.’
Ahh, so that’s what creates the airy vocal sounds used in pieces like ElectroAcoustic.
