I am a 31-year-old musician that has been singing and playing guitar for 17 years. My two brothers and a lifelong friend have been writing and performing music together for over 10 years. We have gone to local studios and paid tons of money only to be rushed, overcharged, and unhappy with the end result of our music. Therefore, we decided to record our latest efforts ourselves. I studied, researched, practiced, and sought advice from several forums. I was happy with everything about our project, exept my vocals. They just sounded "dry" and "metallic". I couldn't put my finger on it, but my vocals sounded very weak next to our music (we play alternative rock...think Coheed and Cambria meets The Mars Volta). The Warmifier paired with the Voxformer is an absolutely astounding solution. My vocals sound rich, warm, and polished. Believe me, I've tried several plug-ins (compressors, EQ's, Modulators, etc., etc.) with less than satisfying results (glitches, poor quality, system crashes, you name it) but these two Voxengo plug-ins are an instant fix. I really am surprised at the difference this plug-in makes. It's almost imperceptable....very subtle, but definately there! Extremely easy to use.....I use two presets that come with the plug-ins "Warmer and Richer" on the Warmifier and "Smooth as Silk" on the Voxformer. I will be posting this on the Voxformer page as well. Thanks Voxengo.....

I just finished my first major mix using Warmifier. I put this plug up there with the best tools in my digital or analog kit. Its a lifesaver. You say the drummer had brass that sounded like ass? - warmifier will sweeten it. Say the vocal doesn't pop into the pocket? Warmifier's vocal preset somehow makes it a lot more focused. ... and I could go on. The raves on gearslutz.com were correct.
Its so quiet and transparant that you can use it on a lot of tracks without any negatives as far as I can tell. Ok, this is the joy of a guy with a new toy, but... I would compare the effect on a track to something like the difference between a focusrite red and an api pre. Subtile - but the api costs a thousand dollars more. The Warmifier was 34 dollars. I would have paid a lot more. t.

I am so thankful for the tools that you have made. I am able to achieve control over sound that is simply impossible with "two-knob plugins." They certainly have their place, but I prefer to understand the character of different flavors of sound and mix/transform music with conscious intention, just as songwriters do so when creating their work initially. Your tools enable me to express what I see/hear in my mind's eye/ ear.
