MV's Plugins releases La Voz Cantante 6B free 1024-band vocoder for Windows

MV's Plugins has released La Voz Cantante 6B. La Voz Cantante is a 1024-band high-fidelity vocoder that facilitates natural and clean sounding choirs or even solo vocals.

Version 6B is a major update to the previous version 1.3, delivering a 1024 band spectral resolution and a completely reworked sibilant processing.

This is a 1024 channel vocoder. The modulator input - usually a sung or simpjy spoken voice - is analyzed with respect to its spectral content, which is then applied to the other sound source - the carrier. The latter may be any externally supplied signal ranging from pink noise, synth pads, guitar or even drums. Alternatively, there is an internal, MIDI driven synth which is optimized for best speech reproduction fidelity. You can blend the high frequencies with noise for more natural sounding plosives and fricatives. Threre is also a noise gate, a compressor and a stereo reverb on board.

Truality Audio releases RealSpread free plugin effect

Truality Audio has released RealSpread, an audio plugin VST which “Stereoizes” a mono audio signal or widens a stereo one, without practically compromising mono compatibility.

RealSpread is an Audio Plugin (VST Windows) which “Stereoizes” a mono audio signal or widens a stereo one, without practically compromising mono compatibility. The spartan GUI conforms to my philosophy of simplicity in plugin design. RealSpread is more effective on single sources, for example a single (mono) Drums Overhead or Room microphone. Of course, you can experiment with stereo sources as well although I wouldn’t recommend using it on Groups/ Stems or Masters…except if you are aiming for that something else!You can insert a Goniometer / Lissajous pattern plugin on the Master bus if you want to observe the effect…
