Different soundfonts or effects on vocals - how to obtain them? Specifically, the "doo" sound.

• Feb 5, 2018 - 19:04

Hello, everyone. First time posting here.

As the title says, I've come across a downloadable musescore sheet for the Beatles' Blackbird and I've found out that the vocals used (it's an acapella arrangement) sound like "doo"s. A very appropriate sound, not very natural, but quite useful and smooth for that acappela-studio sound.

The thing is, I can't replicate that sound. I've tried to download other soundfonts, with no success. I also tried to see if the arranger of the score chose an instrument sound to playback instead of the "ooh"s and "aah"s that we can hear when playbacking vocals - apparently, he didn't.

Who might help me? I'm adding a slightly modified file so that someone might see it.

If you go to View / Mixer you can see exactly which sounds within the soundfont are being used. Looks like a mixture of "Ohh voices" (probably the one you are liking) as well as "Ahh choir" (presumably the one you don't).
