Title: Dennis - Thoughts Of You - Reverse Vocal Production Post by: superunison on October 04, 2021, 05:51:39 AM Hi gang, was wondering if any one knew exactly how Dennis produced the reverse sounding vocal effect on the second half of Thoughts of You from POB. It sounds like he's running the tape in reverse on a track on the left side (ala Twin Peaks), except for the fact that you can hear he's singing the actual lyrics 'all things that live one day must die" so it must not really be in reverse? I can't figure it out and I work in production. Would like to try this for a title sequence I'm doing. Thanks for any input!

Same effect used on Spiritualized's "Shine a Light." Essentially you take the vocal in isolation, reverse it, add echo/delay, and then reverse it again and put it back in the mix.

Not unlike Feel Flows, too. Title: Re: Dennis - Thoughts Of You - Reverse Vocal Production Post by: superunison on October 04, 2021, 10:41:43 AM That has to be it! Thank you! When you described it I was like how did I not think of that, makes total sense.
