Vocal manipulation with Ableton Simplers. from wiretotheear on Vimeo.

There are thousands of ways to mangle audio in weird and wild sound. Here’s a screencast of a trick I sometimes put to work. Here is the end result (4 samples are loaded in this player):

Download audio file (Men_Shall_Seek_Death-1.mp3)
Download audio file (Men_Shall_Seek_Death-2.mp3)
Download audio file (Men_Shall_Seek_Death-3.mp3)
Download audio file (Men_Shall_Seek_Death-4.mp3)

Here is the original sample I used:

Download audio file (16122__Incarnadine__sinister_preacher_reading_revelations.mp3)

The technique uses multiple Ableton Simplers in a Device Group. If your an Ableton wizard you will know this stuff  but if your not a regular user of Simpler and Macros you will learn something.
