Anyone know how to reproduce that Elliot Smith signiture vocal sound? It sounds very layered, maybe a bit like the Beatles. I'm recording a song and put down about 5 vocal takes of the same melody thinking that that might achieve the effect, but it just doesn't sound the same. Any advice?

Which Elliot Smith vocal effect are referring to? Which song? Doesn't he just double his vocals? His voice is pretty unique, that might be something that you can't really recreate.

Well I guess Waltz #1, or pretty much anything off XO for that matter would be a good example. It's a sorta whispery multi-layered sound, but it also sounds like there's some affect applied to it. I'm not sure what. Any clues?
