And I quite liked the effect, it's finer grained than a distortion or overdrive. I did experiment with those but it all got too hefty, too degraded. I like it that it starts to saturate when the vocal part gets louder. I did spent quite some time running the vocals through zita-at1. I now know exactly how this nifty program works but wasn't satisfied with the results. Not that zita-at1 is not good, it's excellent, but somehow the autotuned parts didn't fit in the track. And I did use a vocoder in the bridge (thanks David Robillard for porting the mda plug-ins to LV2!) , maybe I should've used that elsewhere too but I can easily create some extra seq24 patterns.
