Voxformer/Clone ensemble

[Hink]

no...I'm not comparing the two, actually I just got both this week. I picked up clone ensemble the day before yesterday and vixformer today (but I've had the dem for a bit)

I gotta say I'm quite impressed voxformer, it does exactly what I need and quite well. The forced mono option is great. I tried it out a bit on a song that I did last summer Pour Me Another has horribly mixed vox. I got ear fatigue and have just left it alone. I used to voxformer (but didn't save it yet) and it really brought the vocals to where they should be. The Clone ensemble is good for some subtle background vocals to emphasize parts, though I doubt this song will use it I know it will be used a lot in the future.

I have also recently purchased dfh1 so I am changing out the drums (and re-doing the cheesy ride) on Pour Me Another. I'll post in the cafe when I do so it will show how well voxformer performed. Very nice pluggin indeed as is Clones Ensemble, I had several e-mail communications with Clone Ensemble and they (he?) were very professional and very quick to help, definately high cudo's are derserved for that...

I just did the same thing using compressor B in Voxformer and sweeping the crossover for the sweet spot. It really does the trick for erratic and uneven vocal performances (I guess my sloppy recording might be to blame too, hehe).

From listening to chunk and Aleksey talk yesterday part of this characteristic is because of Voxformer feed-behind (ED: Oops I meant fead-back) algorithm in the side-chain (right folks?).
