The sound and recording quality of the three singers is excellent and the multitude of choral sound colors without text are already worth the money. Legendary Backup Singers Each of the amazingly talented singers recorded for HOLLYWOOD BACKUP SINGERS come from a rich musical background, having performed with the biggest names in the industry. Durga McBroom and Lorelei McBroom toured with Pink Floyd as backup singers for many years. C.C. White has worked with many iconic artists. She is also the star vocalist of EastWest's blockbuster product Voices of Soul, one of the top selling vocal products ever produced. EastWest’s Hollywood Backup Singers makes use of the company’s powerful WordBuilder technology that allows it’s wonderfully recorded vocal samples to actually sing whatever lyrics you want and is the best in the game at what it does. WORDBUILDER You have complete control over the shape of each word. When you type lyrics into the interface, WordBuilder intelligently pieces together individual phonemes--the smallest building blocks of spoken language--and maps them out for you. If a consonant or vowel seems slightly off (perhaps too loud or too short), you can get as granular as altering the feel of just the first ‘s’ in “singers,” without changing anything else. Over 220 WordBuilder ‘editable’ phrases and words are included to get you started, just grab them from a quickly accessible drop-down menu from genres such as Pop, Soul, and Gospel. If you don’t find the exact one you’re looking for, you can easily type it into WordBuilder manually, in any language! Hollywood Backup Singers is the coolest product I've seen lately for programming vocals and adding great feeling adlibs and high-style vocal melismas to your music! Vowels This contains every individual vowel recorded for Hollywood Backup singers (‘eh,’ ‘ee,’ ‘ah,’ etc.). The expression control allows you to add vibrato, as well as an optional Leslie speaker simulation for a rich chorusing effect. Consonants Sustained non-vowel sounds such as ‘m,’ ‘n,’ and ‘r.’ The expression control offers a dramatic volume range and subtle vibrato. Combo Mod These contain two sustain patches mapped to the mod wheel, which can either be flipped or gently crossfaded between two vowels. Even two very different sounds such as ‘m’ and ‘ah’ present a natural contour between the two extremes. Solo Phrases All phrases are organized by key, minimizing sample load and eliminating the need to open more than one patch at a time. And because all performances are mapped to chromatic notes, you can quickly drag your finger or cursor between them until you find one that fits perfectly into your music. If you like, you can add a Leslie simulator to the performances. Keyswitch This is the easiest way to switch between Hollywood Backup Singers’ array of articulations, separated out between vowels, consonants, and solo phrases. A wonderfully produced plugin for gospel, soul, pop, RnB backup vocals. The three ladies sound very authentic and their voices have been recorded outstandingly. Mics and Recording Space Hollywood Backup Singers was recorded in EastWest Studio Three, the same studio used to record The Mamas and the Papas, Blondie, Dolly Parton, Rihanna, Frank Ocean, Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga and many others.

For creating polished contemporary female backing vocal performances, Hollywood Backup Singers is a very credible alternative to the real thing. WordBuilder technology is particularly impressive.
