United Plug-ins has announced the QuickVox vocal multi-effect plug-in from Instant Audio to bridge the gap between studio-quality vocal processing and the demands of live performance.
QuickVox features extremely low CPU load, while its dedicated Live Mode make it a valuable tool for computer-based vocalists across all genres. It offers a diverse vocal transformations, from classic effects to experimental textures, with instant switching between three voices. Live control can be further enhanced by assigning the three-way switch to a Midi controller or Midi track, allowing hands-free vocal changes.
QuickVox features three independent, identical rack units that allow users to craft unique effects chains for different parts of a song, such as verses, choruses and intros. These settings can be switched between instantly for on-stage flexibility. Each rack hosts five effects modules, each with three simple controls, allowing a wide palette of sounds.
Users can transform vocals with 11 special effects, including Vocoders, Autotune, rhythmic Comb Filters, and experimental Ring Modulators. For adding grit or aggression, there are eight distortion types including Tube, Tape saturation, Fold and Amp simulations. Available modulation effects include Chorus, Tremolo, Flanger, and Phaser.
Users can also craft intricate rhythms and expansive soundscapes with selay effects such as Digital, Tape, stereo Pingpong and spacious Wide delays, and place vocals in the perfect acoustic space with 12 types of reverb, from an intimate Room to a vast Hall or Cathedral.
A comprehensive Mix Section further polishes the sound with a gate, leveller, de-esser, musical EX and compressor.
QuickVox is compatible with major DAWs on Windows and macOS at €79.
