Hehe.. Yeah, I like Calibre but he knocks out too many tunes to keep up with!! ;)

The way I work with accapellas at the moment is to recycle them but not affect the 
pitch (in recycle).. Play them in Reason
and change the pitch on Dr.Rex to get the timing right.. Then use Steinberg's Vocal 
Designer plugin on that to reset the pitch to whatever (in fact it works quite well 
with any sound).. 
It's not a pretty way of doing it but it's practical!.. The chipmunk effect was 
slightly intentional! (although I try to avoid it where possible!).. ;)

OK, cheers! Comparisons to Calibre are always gonna get me motivated!! (even if it's 
only a little bit)..

I'll work in it more and see what I can come up with!! 

Thanks again,

Nick

The first synth to enter is kinda dry/plain.  Filter
sweep it, and screw around with the velocities, etc. 
The drop is a bit sudden.  The breaks are pretty tight
(sounds like Calibre's remix of Dylan and Ink).  I'd
try to speed up the vocals without chipmunking them. 
You can do that by using Recycle on the vocal samples
and then writing triggers by hand for the samples
(using Dr. Rex, if that's your thing).  Kind of a cool
track.  Listen to LOTS of Calibre, and I think you'll
get it going in the direction you want.
