TheVOICE Plus from Alto is a single channel voice processor that combines a convenient operational interface with excellent sonic performance. The unit comprises 5 distinct sections that include microphone/line input, an expander/gate and compressor section, voice optimized EQ, a de-esser and a master output section.
The individual elements of the VOICE Plus, when properly set up, can deliver a natural and musical sound while eliminating interference signals.

A switchable phantom power supply allows for the use of a variety of microphone types, including condensers.
