Hi all, I'm coming across a problem with flex pitch where as soon as I switch to flex pitch the entire vocal sounds more hollow and different instantly even before I adjust the notes to the pitches I want. Why is this happening? I'm following along with an online course in production and when he switches to flex pitch and moves the notes up or down the original sound is still intact, and yet as soon as I turn on flex, the vocal sounds weak, robotic and hollow. I've taken a screen recording for reference though its not as clear as I'd like. Any thoughts would be appreciated!
Shoot apparently I can't attach mp3 or mp4 in the attachments?
Here's a private soundcloud link of the issue:
The first take is the normal/desired vocal, and then the second take is the flexed vocal.
For context I transposed the track 3 semitones down to get it in key. The tutorial I was watching used something called soundshifter to pitch it and didn't use the transpose feature in the upper left corner of logic. Not sure if this plays a factor at all.
