Imogen uses a more complex method of voice harmonization. In her recording the harmony voices don't move in fourths; they're much more independent. It's obvious that that type of orchestration would take multitrack recording and be much more complicated. Harmonizing in fourths like that takes you out of key quite often.
when you sang without tuning it was better but not much. also you tend to be flat and slide from note to note. you should record it again just your voice might sound better.
bit off tune but its because at times your finger on the key is late in matching the note your voice moves to. Try to listen to imogen and get the moment timed
From my point of view its fake, she has moved her eyes too much as if she were focused on "staying" in line... Its either a fake or she was doing the video after recording the voice. I dont care, and I dont want to disrespect her! But I was just thinking about it, and wanted to share opinons. If it is no fake and live coverage its freakin amazing!
how do you change the pitch a fourth higher and a fourth lower? i can only set it as a whole number pitch change (like +1 2 3 4 5, and -1 2 3 4 5) but no fractions?

@girlwithyellowbag i actually didn't know about the harmonizing mic that Imogen uses until after I did this video. lol I actually used garageband to drop copies of the melody 4ths above and below, making edits here and there, in order to create somewhat of the same effect.
@girlwithyellowbag you clearly don't have much of an ear for music then...just syaing. she may be a good singer, but those computer generated harmonies are in different keys. they're the wrong intervals, and all it sounds like is a bunch of clashing minor chords. sorry. thumbs down for me.
this is great and i am no expert on music and singing and lung control... i like your feeling but to get the same effect as Imogen Heap.. u should try cutting the ends of each line... listen to the original.. its like she cuts off her lungs after each line... that what makes it beautiful... thats just my opinion... GOOD WORK THOUGH!
@SCCOOTTER16 Heck no. Imogen uses a vocoder. With a vocoder you're playing each of the notes on a keyboard, and the mic is going through the keyboard as well. With this it's set harmonies that are completely rigid, and more synthetic.
@willxxxlife - most of the harmonies are the melody moved a forth above and a forth below through garage band, and just a bit of auto-tune to make it sound more mechanical.
CT? Really? That's so close to me! Go New England! PS: You are fabulous. I'm a huge fan of Imogen. I'm a singer too, and singing Imogen isn't easy. You did wonderful! I'm subscribing. <3
the first time i watched this i was too caught up by how different it was from your other stuff to even listen... lol, but now i'm addicted. GOOD JOB BRITTANY! :)
p.s. i think i like yours better than the original!
