Minimal Audio Evoke (vocal effect/processor)

[UltimiGiorniRecords]

And as always the price joke. Upgrade to this with all their plugins and samples cost more then the launch price. 99€ vs 79€

I click on the option to try all access for 7 days for free, and it says a payment of $15 is due today. Does that mean if I cancel then that payment is refunded, or does it mean I can't try it for free since I did this previously in order to demo Current?

If you did the free trial before, you'll be charged immediately. That said, if you do, after a month your account will get credited with $15 to spend on a permanent license.

Aha, thanks.

I wrote $15 but it's priced in Euros (for me), so not only are resellers cheaper in price, they also allow discount vouchers. So I have to decide whether it's worth paying to demo.

Hey everyone, Jake Penn from Minimal Audio here. Nice to be back after a couple years.

Just wanna say thanks for sharing Evoke here and having some positive discussions about it -- I'm happy to pop in and answer questions but will be doing so as myself and not the brand moving forward. Let me know if I can help with anything!

Apologies we don't have an anonymous or single product trial program in place right now, I know some other brands have added support for everything simultaneously while we're still behind.

I don't really have a good short satisfactory answer as to why but I will just say that we're happy to reset trials for anyone interested and our 30 days returns policy is of course still in effect and just takes a message to support.

We've also added license transfers a good while back and lot of enhancements to the account pages based on feedback from the community here, so you have better ownership and clarity if you do decide to jump in and become a minimal audio customer.

Thanks!

I got this with the all access. Really impressive suite IMO. I would buy this immediately if I was not getting it with the sub. But I can say that because I have gotten to play with it. Would I without trial... maybe.

Beautifully fluid filters and the re-synth is smooth - way WAY better than past plugs I have put money into trying to get similar results (OVOX, Nectar, Vocal Synth).

How much is this if you own all the other software Jake? Surely not the same price.
Thanks.

The bundles deliver evergreen upgrade promotions to our existing customers and there are various options depending on what you want year round. At the moment the software bundle is 30% off, and the everything is 50% off but I've been making new ones and marking things down as the product line grows.

That said the bundle upgrade system and the intro promotion aren't smart enough to know how to interact with each other and the intro price is serving as the best option for everyone (except everything bundle owners).

At this point the majority of our customer base is a small and loyal return customer group so definitely you are the priority and whom the intro sale is for : )

Really appreciate your use of the entire suite and being on All Access! And for the kind words on the product, it's been a massive labor of love.

We sent an email dedicated to All Access customers but need to find more ways to make it fun for you guys during a product launch aside auto access to the product -- lmk if you have any ideas. I'm thinking a new little additional rewards area or something in the account views where we can drop treats at the moment.

I’m on all access too, for a while. I’ll probably quit once I have gotten round to getting Current. Not really enough incentive for me,
since you can’t use the funds you earn with any other offers. I got 120 credits or whatever, just sitting in there. I’ll probably buy some packs with it, just to use it.

Personally, I’d rather earn some plugins or something after the year, than the points,
to me that’s more useful.

[jakepenn_]

Totally fair to use All Access a typical rent-to-own program as it's a drop-in replacement but only with additional benefits : )

Let me know if you have any feedback though on it!

My price was $64.50 to upgrade their Everything Bundle to include Evoke. After I installed it and set it up in Logic, I was immediately blown away by the sound quality and list of included features. But truthfully, that's exactly what I expected from Minimal Audio. This amazing effect offers multiple ways to enhance vocals for an extremely modern sound, and it fits in really well with the entire lineup of Minimal Audio VST's.

Since the human voice is so expressive and dynamic, vocals are excellent recordings to experiment with when it comes to creative processing. For instance, I like taking an emotional recording and sending it through various FSU-type plugins to dirty it up. After a little editing, the multiple layers can make a vocal performance absolutely stand out and shine with originality. And this effect really gets the creative juices flowing for just that purpose.

So far, Evoke easily stands out as one of the coolest vocoder/multi-effects that's in a similar vein as other vocal plug-ins like Baby Audio's Humanoid, Polyverse Music's Manipulator, Zynaptiq's Orange Vocoder, Waves OVox, etc. The spectral filter & freeze on Evoke is a lot of fun, and the vocal resynthesis offers some interesting results. I especially appreciate the included effects rack and Evoke's modulation capabilities for adding some motion to the sounds.

It's easy to set up, and I was surprised at how CPU efficient it is on my 2020 iMac. No doubt there will be some future tweaks and updates, but Evoke is running very smooth for a v1.0 release. I've set aside my entire weekend to work on some of my own music, instead of other people's tracks. So I expect to spend quite a bit of time with Evoke and hopefully Kontrast as well. Hold my calls, and slide the food under the door... I'm heading back into the wormhole!!

@ Jake: That’s the thing, I’ll just pick up current outright when it’s on sale sometime, since it’s way cheaper. Then I’ll just use the points on whatever. So, it’s not really like RTO, it’s just a way to have access, until a sale comes up where I’m prepared to purchase it. I already
own all but maybe 2 effects, current and now evoke.

Anyway, I just wanted to bring that up.

-cheers

Great work on evoke.

Don't suppose anyone knows what the latency is on this plugin? Just wondering if there's any chance of live use?
