Any suggestions of sample packs with similar tonality to this wonderful wonderful voice?

Begins at 2:12 for the impatient types

At risk of giving away my new secret weapon in the quest for realistic vocal wailing, check out Realivox:

http://realitone.com/

It's a brilliant set of samples, which can be played legato style and therefore achieve a vocal wailing type sound. The demo "desert voices" on the above site will give you an idea. Needs Kontakt 5 (edit: it also works with Kontakt 5 Player which is free for use with this library).

Peace,
Andy.

... and now, it's Shpongle time. Sweet

Another one to check out is Forgotten Voices - Cait from 8DIO / Soundiron:

More abstract phrases compared to of the Realitone library but no legato mode (which is quite a unique feature).

Peace,
Andy.

Thanks much Andy x2.

Will check these out in a tick

Really ~

NICE!!! - thanks

When the page first loaded, I was teleported to a drive-in burger joint in the 50's, and anticipated a girl on roller-skates dashing over to my car to take my order.

Andy, these are ideal.

However, I've since had a sanity check and realised I shouldnt be starting yet another track
I MUST finish the current ones first.

But the girl sings to you when she brings your order!

Funny that the artwork gave you that impression, because more than one person has told me that the anime girl gives the wrong impression of what the library is about. I suppose I should change it, but more "serious" designs always seem so boring to me. I love the anime girl. But . . . I also love making money . . . so . . .

Sorry, the anime "girl" is great! (does she have a sister?)

I should have clarified the Realivox (logo) "font" (w/*stars*), and general color scheme were nostalgic.

Ah, now I see what you meant. You're right, the logo definitely has a nostalgic feel. I was going for a space age retro lounge vibe when I did that. Don't ask me why, given that there's nothing particularly retro about the library.

ONLY $295!! Damn that's too much for a poor amateur like me. the demo is amazing though.

Sea of Bliss Sweet vocal!! I'm less oonvinced aout the Vocal instrument though. I think I'd have to say phrases are more interesting to listen to than single tones..RealVox works is well done. but you are not going to fool many with that technique..

Not that I wish to steal money from developers' coffers (especially Mike, as I know how much time and effort he put into the fabulous Realivox), but have you considered using a real vocalist?

There are loads out there looking for collaboration projects. Just root about Soundcloud and send some messages to singers you like.

It really can be that simple.

I probably shouldn't say this, but . . . that's a really good idea.
