Hey deeps, hows it going. Stopped by and listened to the latest show's. I give em 2 thumbs up for sure.

As for the Antares stuff, very good stuff indeed. Only problem is the dang dongle, or iLok as they call it. It is a USB device which alows the pluggins to self authorize each time they start. And bummer is you only get it free when you buy the whole bundle. But the bonus is if you have a lot of software that uses the iLok license system then you may allready have one. Otherwise the iLok is $39.95 on its own and handles up to 100 licenses for those type of products.

Hi there deeps, I checked out AVOX toolkit, but too pricey for my blood. :)

I gotta admit, the toolkit looks friggin awesome...but the fact it costs a fortune and that it requires one of those damn USB keys...hell with it...it looks fun tho.

Dan - yeah that tool is bad-***...just got it. It helps if you got a hook that needs a doubling up on the vox with the 2nd vox being the "doubler" needs to be pitched higher...woooo takes 2 seconds to do that with this Avox puppy

what have you guys been up to production wise??

Also side note you folks wanna get the Spectrasonic Atmosphere....

Sonar 5 has a new processor called V-Vocal. Same kinda set-up, I cant wait to dig into it and find out how much it can really do. I'm thinking of trying it out this weekend on some bad vocal parts I have on a track for girl who is pretty fair but missed a few notes.

I just got the Avox bundle and I must say, the doubler is nice and the Punch is also great. The choir is not nearly what I would eexpect for the cost of it. Not the best sound and the coloring it adds is kind of like mild phasing. May just be pilot error though. I would love to hear others feedback on this stuff though.

Noize: let us know how that V-Vocal is. Is that plugin readily available or only for Sonar prgrm

deeps, not sure if they will have that one seperated. But they did decide to do the Dimension synth that was a part of the Porject 5 version 2 release as a seperate plug. so maybe if the V-vocal thing goes well they might do that as well. I imagine a DX version as well as VST.
