i'm downloading demos as i type this, has anyone tried any of it?
Looks like a decent autotune alternative finally - if it works as advertised. 99€ isn't half bad either, considering the price of Autotune pro.

So, XVox Pro sounds like a decent channel strip, but you probably have everything it offers.

XPitch however as far as my testing goes, is a decent alternative to people sick of Antares' shit. It's just as clean and also has a lowlatency mode so.
Seriously considering it, but still rather pricey.

Damn... I am demo-ing X-Pitch, X-rider and X-vox ... I wish I didn't.. these are great!

Own them all. Xvox, xvox pro, xpitch, and xrider. And they’re coming out with more plugins. Seriously a very overlooked and underrated company. They’ll be hanging even with the big companies soon though. Great quality plugins and easy to use.

xvox pro is my new fave vocal channel strip. i spent the afternoon A-B’ing it with my default setup (izotope breath control>fabfilter Q4>apusoft splitS>fabfilter C2>waves curves equator>blacksalt audio oxygen) and trying to match things up; easy to do.

then i made things better. and having every parameter in front of me is nice. plus i can still use any of my other plugins along with xvox pro, if & when needed.

anyway, it’s a winner, and worth checking out.

I think Xvox Pro and XRack Pro are both terrific, and they have basically replaced Izotope's Nectar and Neutron for me in the "quick and easy but still powerful channel strip" category (which I was looking to do due to becoming disenchanted with Izotope owner Soundwide).

Nuro's stuff isn't "cheap," but I do think the prices are pretty reasonable, especially since--unlike Izotope with its yearly paid update releases--Nuro promises that they will never charge for updates.

I just hope they release an "XMaster Pro" to replace Ozone someday.

Ssg Audio aka Nuro Audio has Optimus plug-in for Master.

spend some time A-B'ing optimus & my go-to: ozone 11 advanced. optimus is pretty good, but ozone edges it out... enough to matter. and there's a world more control and options, with ozone. but optimus is still better than logic's built-in mastering (at least, at this moment).

am sticking with ozone11, but will check out xrider and xpitch later this week.

Xvox Pro looks great and I was pretty interested in it, but then UAD released their Topline Vocals plugin, so I downloaded both demos and compared them. They were pretty comparable, but overall I preferred the features and sound I was getting from the UAD, although I like Xvox’s UI a little more. I got a much better deal on the UAD plugin, so that sealed the deal for me.

I did once ask Nuro Audio about Optimus and here below is there reply....

SSG Audio is a group of a few developers working on some AI-related projects, but it's not related to Nuro Audio in any way (they're completely separate teams, different development teams, etc.). I do think that some Nuro Audio team members may work on some things with SSG Audio, but otherwise they're completely separate companies - hope this clarifies!

Funny how much things change in a year. I now own XVox Pro, Xrider, Xpitch, Supernova, and Blockchain and they all get plenty of use. One of my fav developers.
