I've got a sample of a person shouting a sentence ... but I want to make it so it sounds like there's a crowd of people shouting it .... like a small football crowd ... I've tried doubling it up 2, 3 times and delaying them slightly and putting some reverb... but got some dodgy results from it ...

Wondering if you guys have any others suggestions?? thanks

Edited: Why not actually just record some of your friends speaking the sentence? Make things a whole lot easier...maybe : )

Lots of delay and pitch/formant-shifters with a small amount of wet signal so you get slightly different sounding voices, appropriate spacing of layers and panning. Might still be hard with just one sample.

Chrorus
Delay
Phaser
Reverb
Flanger
Layering + Panning
Pitch, Volume modulation

Go nuts

Yeah, you're really gonna have to go nuts with the effects on this one. Work on each vocal sample at a time, chorus, reverb, flange some, pitch shift some, get them each sounding unique, filter some, delays, reverb... Vocoder?

Then place them slightly out of sync, that might work.

place them spaced out by prime numbers

layer them with slightly offset start points. reverb. chorus on one layer, detuning on another, etc. basically make the sample sound slightly different than the original and layer them so they start at different times.

i think there is a vst called clone ensemble which does exactly that

it's called chorus for a reason




but really, you wanna record a crowd of people shouting the phrase. no proper substitute
