Slices Mode is very similar to Loops Mode. In this mode, all of the 125 presets will have 13 vocal loops mapped to each key or pad on your controller (from C2-C3). Loops Mode is made up of around 40 different loop banks with 13 different loops each. In other words, the sounds in this mode can be played on your keyboard like any traditional sound with full polyphony (multiple notes at once, chords, traditional melodies, etc.). Notes Mode blends two user selectable vocal sound sources chromatically across the keyboard. All of the sounds available in the instrument are organized in one of these three categories followed by a bank of tags (“Dirty, Airy, Lead, Electro”, etc.) to help you get the vibe you’re after. All of which are accessible from the Main Page, directly below the large Macro sliders (more on these below). Output’s engineering team has split the presets into three very handy categories: Notes, Loops and Slices. Here we find the FX Engine, Rhythm modulation tab, trigger options (ADSR, etc) and Output’s Flux parameters, all tools that provide some pretty interesting vocal effect possibilities for the sound you select, along with the ability to customize the actual sound sources each preset is made from.Įxhale comes packed with vocal sound options for creating everything from lush ambient chord progressions and swells, right to modern glitch motifs and high-pitched choppy melodies. The Engine Page is where all the magic happens. From the Main Page we can select sounds, adjust the macro controls, access our user created patches and adjust what key the vocal patches playback in. Outside of typical, organic lead vocals, many of the sounds made with voices in contemporary music (think vocal samples and effects used in electronic and hip-hop music) are often done with your basic sampler like an EXS 24 or in specialty instruments like Alchemy. But Exhale adds in some cool tricks for pros while offering up an almost dubstep-voice-in-a-box synth for beginners.Įxhale is split in to two pages: The Main Page and the Engine Page. In this week’s episode of Logic Pros, we are stepping into the world of Exhale. A perfect follow-up to our review of Output’s Substance bass engine, the company’s Exhale Kontakt instrument for Logic Pros X (and other DAWs) boasts a wide array of vocal samples, loops and phrases fed through a complex synthesis engine resulting in one of the coolest vocal plugins for Logic I’ve used in a long time.
