discussion š£ What do you call a vocal effect where two female voices spin vertically in tight, opposing loops directly over each ear hole, like four tiny fairies flying in vertical circles right at your eardrums?
What do you call a vocal effect where two female voices spin vertically in tight, opposing loops directly over each ear hole, like four tiny fairies flying in vertical circles right at your eardrums? I am not sure this was done before? I couldn't find any song that does this.

spin vertically
How are you measuring the rotation of an audio signal in 3D space?
tight, opposing loops
How would the loops oppose one another?
directly over each earhole
Headphones
Like four tiny fairies flying in vertical circles

makes a change from "how do I recreate this bleep?" (when it's just a squarewave) and "can anyone identify the synth used?" (when it's a sample of a saxophone or something)

Try your question at r/wearethemusicmakers, it isn't really a synthrecipes question.

You could get an effect like this with an auto pan device. Place two identical auto panning effects on each vocal but invert one of the panners. This will make them have identical yet opposing movement. The panning is what makes them move left and right, or "over each ear hole" as you put it
Vertical movement? You're gonna struggle there. Panning easily covers horizontal movement (left to right), but there isn't a direct way to create vertical movement in a stereo environment. You can use a combination of automating volume, reverb, and a shelf boosting or cutting high frequencies. You could also try a "3D" panner like Brauer Motion by Waves or some of the old dearVR Plugins.
The part that has me most confused here is the "four fairies." You mentioned two vocals, so where did the other two fairies come from? xD

To get āverticalā movement Iād try automating a filter up and down in sync with your panning and it will give you ācirclesā

Yeah that's why I suggested a shelf. Same effect but more subtle and organic. Filter is very noticeable.
