Logic 8: Delay Help?

Zangetsu

I'm mixing a loverly electronica song for a friend, vocals are sounding great apart from one section of the song where the singer finishes a verse on the word 'clearly'.

I want that to echo out and naturally fade off into the song but the 'C' at the start of the word is making it sound clicky. I tried cutting out the C and putting the 'learly' on another track with a delay but it sounded messy and crap as you can imagine...

How can I get the word to filter off in a smooth and sexy manor? :cool:

I'm a noob, forgive the ridiculous explanation of my problem :pac:

Put the word 'clearly' in a loop.

Insert and EQ on the channel strip containing the vocal 'clearly' and sweep through the vocal frequencies until you hear a smooth 'C' . Try pulling down the mids for sexiness and then cut some low end off the vocal to clear it up. You may have to boost the volume of the vocal now that you have cut the EQ. Maybe you have tried this already?

bounce out the delayed signal so its an audio file.then volume automate the parts you want to hear and the parts you dont pull the volume down on the bits you dont.

then chuck a filter on it and filter out the delay

either that or cut out the "C" and then place them where you want it to be(in effect make the delay yourself) and use the fades option in the channel strip to make the harsh cut sound taper off easier.Then whack the filter on it

Copy the audio and turn the "C" down with gain change (at least 12db) in sample edit. It's quicker.
