Waves Vocal Native Bundle

Five Powerful Plug-ins for World-class Vocal Tracks

If you want to give your vocal tracks the "red carpet treatment" without hunting down and buying a ton of vintage gear, then the new Waves Vocal Bundle is what you're looking for. The Waves Vocal Bundle is a comprehensive vocal toolkit made up of some incredible Waves processing plug-ins: Tune, which delivers a new level of sound quality and ease in pitch correction and melody transformation; and DeBreath, a Waves exclusive which removes unwanted breath sounds automatically. In addition, Waves Vocal Bundle features Renaissance Channel, the acclaimed virtual channel strip that gives you EQ, compression, gating and limiting in one convenient plug-in; Renaissance DeEsser, perfect for removing excess sibilance; Doubler, for superior double-tracked effects; and Renaissance Axx, a streamlined compressor that's great for getting instant results.

Tune

Tune performs pitch correction of vocals and other instruments with a new level of transparency. In addition, Tune allows you to change individual notes or entire melodies as easily as manipulating MIDI notes, while Tune's formant correction provides completely natural-sounding results. Tune features a familiar "piano-roll" interface which displays the original pitch, the corrected pitch and individual notes, offering intuitive and flexible operation.  

Waves Tune Features:

• Work in perfect sync with your host and do all your editing from within the Tune interface without being bound to a specific section of your track.
• ReWire lets you listen to your edits in real-time, together with the rest of your tracks, starting playback from any timeline position.
• Formant corrected pitch processing results in natural sound, with an astonishing new level of transparency and no audible phase shift.  
• Tune features powerful yet extremely easy-to-use editing tools and a totally intuitive piano-roll screen.
• The large, user-friendly display is easy to use and navigate and the superior Zoom Tool lets you know exactly where you are at all times.
• Tweak Natural Vibrato for maximum realism or fine tune Synth Vibrato to transform your sound.
• All edits are non-destructive and saved with your session.
• Export MIDI files to double your vocal parts using your favorite synth or sampler, or to create note-for-note transcriptions.  
• Choose from dozens of standard and exotic scales, or set and save custom scales with amazing flexibility.
• Tune is completely compatible with multiple hosts, so you don't need more than one version of Tune.

DeBreath

Br eathing is something singers seem to insist on doing, even when it spoils a perfectly good take. DeBreath is a revolutionary new plug-in that lets you not only eliminate those breaths, but also lets you turn them in your favor, using them for new creative effects. DeBreath automatically reduces or removes breath sounds on vocal tracks. DeBreath employs a unique template-matching algorithm that detects breath segments and separates them from the main vocal, so breath sounds can be reduced or eliminated without affecting the rest of the signal. Room tone can also be added to compensate for its loss where breaths are removed or reduced.

Because DeBreath can be used to separate a vocal track into two elements, one containing only voice and the other only breaths, each can be processed differently, for the emotional effects of breathing to be enhanced with additional processing if desired. In addition to cleaning up singers' tracks, DeBreath is also an effective time-saving tool for engineers working with voice-over and spoken-word record

Renaissance Channel

For many top engineers and producers, there's nothing better than Waves Renaissance plug-ins for achieving the warm, smooth compression, limiting, gating, and equalization associated with classic audio gear. Renaissance Channel, with EQ, compression, gating and limiting. conveniently combines that sound into a single, intuitive channel strip.

• Overload Protection - no output clipping
• Stereo Rotation control - Controlling level balance without affecting center channel sound
• Independent setting of sidechain routing and filtering for gating and compression.
• Full Channel Insert functions and more
• Total Setting Flexibility
• Add analog sound to your digital workstation
• No Internal nor Output Clipping
• Efficient usage of DSP Time Slots

Doubler

Doubler is for any musician or audio engineer who wants a superior "Double Tracking" effect. The new Waves Doubler uses delay and pitch modulation to create a new class of sounds. Unlike other delay and pitch modulation processors Doubler specializes in the double tracking sound that is great on polyphonic instruments and full mixes.  

Renaissance DeEsser

Based on technologies from the award-winning Waves C4 MultiBand processor and Renaissance Vox, Renaissance DeEsser's intelligent sibilance control uses adaptive threshold technology for smoother and more natural de-essing. And DeEsser's graphic display lets you see exactly what you're hearing for precise adjustment.

Waves Renaissance DeEsser Features:

• Phase compensated crossover eliminates undesirable coloration to the sound and phase modulation that normally occurs as an artifact of the compressor. The same type of crossover is used in Waves award-winning C1 and C4 compressors.
• Adaptive threshold allow the compressor to dynamically adapt to the input signal to provide a smoother DeEssing effect yielding more natural sounding results.
• Attenuation range control allows the user to specify the maximum gain reduction for more accurate control.
• Enhanced visual display incorporates a graph to allow the user to see what you hear.

Renaissance Axx

Renaissance Axx is the ideal compressor for musicians and engineers who need to dial in dynamic levels quickly. With its three efficient controls, Renaissance Axx features a fixed ratio curve, automatic release value, and an output limiter to prevent clipping

Renaissance Axx Features:
