Voxengo Voxformer
I was looking for something like the VC-64 that comes in Sonar for my new Reaper Setup.
After playing with it for an hour i was hooked. The Voxformer is not only a good vocal compressor, it also features a very pleasing saturation algorythm and routhing capabilities that makes it usefull for a lot of situation. It has instantly become one of my go-to plugins
Great product !
Alexis -Alxi- Roy Studio SoundBoxI've been eyeing Voxformer for a while and finally decided to buy it. After using it on two mixes, I believe it is THE ideal channel strip for a digital setup.
Here's why:
1. The EQ comes with 5 bands so you have less decision fatigue, and you can bandpass preview the spectrum using ctrl/cmd+click to really determine where you want to add/subtract energy. There is also no cramping in the higher frequencies when using peaking filters.
2. The compressor crossover function allows for easy management of the dynamics of certain instruments' low end and high end/midrange, separately.
3. The presence function can really make the vocals sit just right, either by increasing the high end or (and I didn't know this was possible) by making it warmer.
4. The preview/delta solo available for the de-esser (and the other functions have it too).
5. It has a gate. It works.
6. Voxengo presets in general work out of the box, and if not they're a really good starting point.
7. The saturation sounds amazing.
8. Super low CPU usage! Most of the popular channel strips (BX consoles, Waves SSL EV2, etc) aren't nearly as CPU efficient.
9. THE fastest workflow. Faster than individual EQs and compressors on tracks, and faster than "analog modeled" channel strips, even without using presets.
Would heartily recommend this. I was surprised at being able to reach -8 LUFS in the mixing stage without any limiting, with the widest, clearest sound I've been able to get so far. I attribute that purely to the workflow and ease of use of Voxformer.
