Overall, it does a fantastic job with minimal effort. Even if you’re working with an incredible singer, modest Auto-Tune settings will help keep pitch as tight as possible. Antares Auto-Tune ProĪuto-Tune is a must-have. You can also try it on other instruments if your heart so desires! Waves suggests trying it on drums to achieve a flam-like effect, or on anything else to add shimmer and presence. Maybe to make a hook sound wider and fuller, for instance. It also just add a cool effect that can spice up your vocals. Doubler utilizes delay and pitch modulation (chorusing) to automatically add texture and richness to a single track.

By setting a target vocal level for your mix, the plugin compensates intelligently by raising or lowering the signal’s gain. The Vocal Rider was designed to be a time-saver by adjusting a vocal’s levels automatically. Waves Vocal RiderĪn absolute must-have and one of the best vocal plugins for saving yourself time and frustration. It’s one of the few plugins that takes a vocal from sounding totally unmixed to practically finished with just a few tweaks. I keep it on my main vocal bus, mainly to carve out the 100, 200, and 300 Hz areas and also add a bit of air at 10 kHz. UAD’s Pultec EQP-1A is absolutely incredible on vocals. At the risk of sounding cliche, the LA-2A does add an analog warmth to vocals that sounds incredible. Its controls are simple: a Peak Reduction knob to control gain reduction and a Gain Control knob to add make-up gain. I keep both an 1176 and a 2A (plugins) on my vocal bus, with the latter applying just a bit of glue and tube character at the end of the chain. UAD LA-2Aįor a cool opt sound, you can’t go wrong with an LA-2A. The all-buttons-in mode can be really cool for some parallel compression too! 2.

It’s super fast, capable of taming the sharpest transients in the source material. When it’s time to reach for one of the best vocal plugins, go for an 1176.
My Main Out peaks no higher than -6 dB before using Ozone, and then, no matter what preset I use, no matter if I use Master Assistant, the Main Out goes way into the red when Ozone is enabled.ĭavid and other Forum Members said Ozone uses a Limiter to keep this from happening, but when I looked at the various Modules in each preset, many did use a Limiter, but rarely was it the last Module in the chain, and many presets didn't use a Limiter in their chain at all. My guitar player (the one with our second studio, with about $30,000.00 worth of Guitars and Amps, with the Axe FX II) said since it's mainly his guitar tracks I have to work especially hard and long on to make them sound good, kindly paid for me to have Ozone 8 Advanced
