I used the Waves Morphoder quite a lot for a while. Basically you need pitch detection on the vocal, pitch generation which is generally done through a synth, and could be Om as you were suggesting, and then you drive the difference of the pitch detect and the pitch generation into the pitch shifter to modulate the vocal as desired. Unfortunately this LADSPA plugin lacks that third channel to tell it how much to shift. In general, it's pretty darn CPU intensive and not very real time friendly... ...but fun! ;-) - Mark
