ReaVoice is a MIDI controlled multi-voice pitch shifter. You can use it in conjunction with a recorded vocal track to create pitch shift harmonies. In overview, this is how it works:
Record the Vocal Track. Insert a new track immediately below the Vocal Track. Create a send from the Vocal Track to the new track. Initially at least, this should be Pre FX. Insert ReaVoice into the FX Window of the new track. Arm this track for recording. Select your MIDI keyboard as the Input Device and turn Input Monitoring on. Mute all tracks except these two. Play the song. As you do so, play the keyboard, experimenting until you find an appropriate range of notes. Work out what you want to play, press W to return to the beginning, then Ctrl R to record. Stop recording when finished. If you do not have a MIDI keyboard, you can either use REAPER’s Virtual keyboard, or you can enter the notes by hand using the MIDI Editor. If you wish, you can record more than one take, selecting Play All Takes for the MIDI track items.
