Voxengo Voxformer

Voxformer is my first call channel strip for vocals.  I use a MOTU 828 MKII as the pre-amp stage for a Rode NT-1A and route it through Creamware Scope via ADAT into Cubase SX3 or Sonar 4PE and Antares Mic-Modeler.  I generally create a preset for each vocalist and call that up for recording.

I cannot tell you how amazing this sounds.  It sounds better than the UA-LA, Avalon and Focusrite hardware.  Hard to beleive but the recordings are the proof.  Amazingly, it does this for a ridiculously low price point by comparison.  I have been skeptical that plug-ins could sound so great, but the proof is that the hardware sits on the shelf and when clients come in all I have to do is load up their presets and we're ready to go in a flash.  I have also used Voxformer and Mic-Modeler to match recordings done in other studios with high end hardware.  While this takes a bit of time it is amazing that a convincing match can be done with the software only.

As good as waves NLS with the option to design console saturation, tube harmonics and Tube Grit and distortion, this is THE CONSOLE EMULATOR, it is what lampthruster was trying to achieve which I still have and use often.  The sound is Exceptional and I rate voxengo FX as an alternative for musical enthusiasts who cant afford the big name FX, but voxengo FX are even better than some of the "suggested by pros" FX vsts and give many a run for their money.  Soniformer 3 is the best processor for mastering I have ever used with the only downside being the processor hit and it has an excellent vintage tape vibe

You've been doing a lot of work, keeping my purchases viable and up to date, and I'd like to say, "Thanks very much!".
