VOCALS RELATED: I've released a new vocal plugin called, Vocal Spread. It's free! Read this VOCALS (formerly Back Stage Vocals) is a one-shot VST plug-in that pre-mixes your vocal track, taking care of harsh frequencies and creating space to make it easier for your vocals to sit perfectly inside the mix. Back Stage Vocals combines moderate equalization, early reflections, stereo widening, and very subtle harmonics into one little plug-in, freeing your chain so you can add more effects and further audio level compression. For starters and podcasters, this could be the one plugin that you will need to put your vocals upfront and center in the mix. For pro's, this free vst plugin takes care of the easy but tedious task of prepping the vocals so you can go straight ahead to audio compression and other effects. Back Stage Vocals gives you two controls for adjusting the vocal effect and air. Main vocals should ideally be more "upfront" and have more air. For backing vocals dial down these controls to push them further back in the mix. There are additional side-switches that allow you to add stereo-width and gain. Main vocals are best left in the center, but you can try applying stereo-width for added effect. Backing vocals complement solo's when stereo-widening is switched on. For simple projects, all that's left to do is add the music and adjust the levels, and you're done! For serious recordings, your job of mixing just got so much easier. IMPORTANT UPDATE I've received a lot of reports that using this plugin with mono tracks may cause your host to freeze or become unstable. Since this plugin is no longer under development, no updates will be released. But you can always use the more advanced HUE-X, which offers more than the functionality of the Vocals plugin.

Donate I could use a cup of coffee to help me stay awake while making some more free plugs. If you find any of my stuff useful, I would appreciate a little donation through Paypal. Thank you!
