Sonnox has announced the release of VoxDoubler, the first plug-in from a new range called Toolbox. It is available to try free for 15 days and to buy exclusively from the Sonnox website.
Here's what they say:
VoxDoubler is comprised of two separate plug-ins called Widen and Thicken which are bespoke engineered to help with the two most common vocal doubling workflows:
- Widen generates two new mono voices and pans them to the left and right of the original vocal.
- Thicken generates a new stereo doubled voice and overlaps it with the original vocal.
Until now, vocal doubling either takes considerable time, effort and expense or it doesn't create sufficiently believable and natural-sounding results. The VoxDoubler elegantly solves this by providing you with ease of use, real-time processing and a sound as lifelike as if the doubled parts were actually multi-tracked. Saving you time, money and maintaining your creative flow.
Features:
- Generate believable double and triple vocal tracks to create width, depth or add thickness.
- Humanise section to adjust the Timing and Pitch of the doubles relative to the original vocal.
- Depth control to push the new doubled voices deeper into the mix.
- Tone control to prevent sibilant doubles from becoming distracting, or to brighten those that are too muddy.
- Track/Aux mode allows you to apply the effect in place or, for more advanced control, mix it in parallel on an aux return.
- A more cost-effective alternative, both in terms of initial outlay and speed of use, than more complex and manual processes.
- Engineered for vocals, but try it on instruments too.
- Hallmark Sonnox audio precision, transparency and reliability.
