Does anybody know how Scooter makes those crowd chants on their songs. Do they tell ppl on their conserts to sing along on a track that they never heard before and record it or what? Not that im planning on using crowds on my songs, im just curious.

I guess without having an unreleased song no one can chant to, try resampling the same voice. Make one voice sound like two and two sound like four, etc. Or hire some people to come over and chant outside your home.

That don't work im quite sure of that too. Me and about 20 other ppl was skreaming our ass of at one of swedens biggest hits summer of 2000 called "mera m?l" by Markoolio and it sounded like c r a p, we did lots of takes too. Although we did't record all ppl at once. Maybe the room must be bigger so that you get the ambience of the room and record all ppl at once, then do lot of takes?

Just search the internet (maybe too obvious

).

no no no... (ts ts ts... 8khz Samples from Internet, or what?)

Try to rip Crowds from Heave Metal Live CDs
Metallica for Example.
And when you have some, send them to me, I am always searching crowd samples, too

Well im not talking about just crowd noises, i meant wen like the crowds sing along on Scooters tracks, do they record that live or what?Cuz when the tracks are new, nobody could have heard them?

BTW just check KLFs album and sample the crowds that they sampled

KLF is the best band EVER

Muuu Muuu

Their ambient album is a trip.

not sure if this would work, but during nin's last tour, c.clouser used a sample of crowd noise and his voice with the nord micromod's vocoder, maybe you can do the same but use the virus's vocoder? the result was kinda like a whole gang of people screaming the lyrics(mainly on the song starfuckers inc.)

I am trying to do this too. I tried searching the Internet for chanting tips and didn't find much. I am sure the ones that I have heard are processesed, but I don't know how. Maybe the whole vocoder idea is the way to go.

When you say search the Internet... give me some key words for searching, because I am not finding anything helpful. I am not looking for the technique to do "chanting" of original stuff.

Thx,
