The Vocal Bundle from Waves is a collection of six plug-ins for tuning and shaping vocals. Included processors aim to fix intonation, modulate breath artifacts, de-essing, along with equalization and dynamics components for overall sound shaping.
DeBreath from Waves is a plug-in for rescuing an otherwise perfect vocal take that is marred by too much breath-capture. The software uses an algorithm that detects and separates a vocal take into two distinct components - voice only and breath only. This allows for simply lowering the unwanted artifacts. For situations where the breath removal sounds artificial, a control allows for adding room tone to cover up the reduction or removal.
Doubler from Waves is a plug-in that can automatically create a double-track effect, especially useful for vocals. Using adjustable delay and pitch modulation, the plug-in adds a rich texture on vocals, but works equally well on polyphonic instruments and full mixes.
*Accel card required for 96 kHz operation with only 2 voices mono or m/s available at 96 kHz
The Renaissance Axx from Waves is a dynamics plug-in engineered especially for guitar and bass. Settings can be dialed in very easily via a three-parameter interface that includes a fixed ratio curve, automatic release value, and an output limiter to prevent clipping.
Renaissance Channel from Waves is a channel strip plug-in featuring equalization, compression, limiting, and gating in a single convenient interface. Borrowing processors from the company's Renaissance line of plug-ins, the channel strip can function equally well during tracking and mixing.
The Renaissance DeEsser from Waves is a plug-in used to reduce excess sibilance (ess and shh sounds) from vocal tracks. A sibilance attenuator reduces undesirable high frequencies while preserving the integrity of the source. A variety of presets for both male and female voices along with the functionality of audio or side-chain monitoring, allows for spotting problem areas and fixing them with accuracy and ease.
Waves Tune from Waves is an easy-to-use pitch/formant correcting plug-in that will automatically tune a vocal track, making the changes as gentle or as aggressive as required. Default parameters or custom settings can be used, and a singer's general range (generic, bass, baritone, tenor, alto, mezzo soprano, or soprano) can be selected or changed manually as needed.
Selecting the root note and scale allows the plug-in to correct to the notes in that key. In addition to dozens of preset scales, custom scales can be created and the choice to bypass notes entirely is also available.
