Legendary Backup Singers

Each of the amazingly talented singers recorded for HOLLYWOOD BACKUP SINGERS come from a rich musical background, having performed with the biggest names in the industry. Durga McBroom and Lorelei McBroom toured with Pink Floyd as backup singers for many years. C.C. White has worked with many iconic artists. She is also the star vocalist of EastWest's blockbuster product Voices of Soul, one of the top selling vocal products ever produced.

WORDBUILDER

You have complete control over the shape of each word. When you type lyrics into the interface, WordBuilder intelligently pieces together individual phonemes--the smallest building blocks of spoken language--and maps them out for you. If a consonant or vowel seems slightly off (perhaps too loud or too short), you can get as granular as altering the feel of just the first ‘s’ in “singers,” without changing anything else. Over 220 WordBuilder ‘editable’ phrases and words are included to get you started, just grab them from a quickly accessible drop-down menu from genres such as Pop, Soul, and Gospel. If you don’t find the exact one you’re looking for, you can easily type it into WordBuilder manually, in any language!

Vowels

This contains every individual vowel recorded for Hollywood Backup singers (‘eh,’ ‘ee,’ ‘ah,’ etc.). The expression control allows you to add vibrato, as well as an optional Leslie speaker simulation for a rich chorusing effect.

Consonants

Sustained non-vowel sounds such as ‘m,’ ‘n,’ and ‘r.’ The expression control offers a dramatic volume range and subtle vibrato.

Combo Mod

These contain two sustain patches mapped to the mod wheel, which can either be flipped or gently crossfaded between two vowels. Even two very different sounds such as ‘m’ and ‘ah’ present a natural contour between the two extremes.

Solo Phrases

All phrases are organized by key, minimizing sample load and eliminating the need to open more than one patch at a time. And because all performances are mapped to chromatic notes, you can quickly drag your finger or cursor between them until you find one that fits perfectly into your music. If you like, you can add a Leslie simulator to the performances.

Keyswitch

This is the easiest way to switch between Hollywood Backup Singers’ array of articulations, separated out between vowels, consonants, and solo phrases.

Mics and Recording Space

Hollywood Backup Singers was recorded in EastWest Studio Three, the same studio used to record The Mamas and the Papas, Blondie, Dolly Parton, Rihanna, Frank Ocean, Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga and many others. The library features three microphone mixes: Close (Neumann U47, Telefunken 251, Shure SM7), Rear (stereo Neumann KU100 Binural Dummy Head, pair of vintage RCA 77's, pair of Sennheiser MKH800s), and Room (3 vintage Neumann M50 tube condenser mics in a Decca-Tree configuration, pair of Neumann U67's).
