Pulsar Audio Vocal Studio
Vocal Channel Strip Plugin
The All-In-One Vocal Mixing Solution
Hundreds of vocal mixing colors just 2 clicks away.
A polished, pro-sounding vocal is the result of deliberate production choices made from years of experience.
This typically requires multiple plugins, intricate routing, and painstaking comparisons - a process that can be both time-consuming and even overwhelming.
What if you could cut through the complexity?
Imagine being able to effortlessly explore a range of vocal tones and production styles, while keeping full control over every detail - making bold creative decisions fast and with confidence.
Pulsar Vocal Studio is a powerful, all-in-one plugin that combines professional-grade vocal production tools into a seamless, intuitive interface - allowing you to explore, refine, and perfect your vocal mix with speed and precision.
Warm Up the Vocal with Classic Preamps
Saturation enhances vocals by adding warmth, harmonic richness, and presence, helping them cut through the mix without relying on volume.
It brings character and texture to overly clean recordings, making the voice feel more organic and expressive.
By subtly blending with the mix, it ensures the vocals sit naturally among instruments while adding a touch of emotion and authenticity.
Elevate your vocals with three pro-grade saturation modes: Tube for smooth vintage
warmth, Germanium for edgy grit, and Solid-State for crisp, modern punch.
Achieve Perfect Compression for Any Vocal
Compression shapes the energy and tone of a vocal, but finding the right settings can be overwhelming.
The wrong choice can flatten the song or leave it sounding lifeless.
With Pulsar Vocal Studio, you can explore three custom compression types & routing inspired by legendary British consoles and cutting-edge digital algorithms.
Whether you need punchy dynamics, smooth clarity, or something in between, these expertly tuned chains let you easily dial in the perfect sound.
Shape Your Vocal's Tone with Intuitive EQ Control
Balancing warmth, brightness, and color is essential to making vocals sit well in a
mix, yet it often requires multiple tools and time-consuming adjustments.
Pulsar's EQ section simplifies this process, giving you instant access to a variety of tonal options.
For deeper customization, switch to parametric mode to fine-tune specific frequencies, ensuring your vocals fits seamlessly into your track.
Add Presence and Air Without Harshness
Vocals need the right amount of "shine" to cut through a mix, but pushing too far can
introduce harshness and fatigue.
Pulsar's advanced and dynamic Focus EQ band helps you fine-tune air and presence, giving your vocals a bright, polished character that stands out without overwhelming the listener.
Craft Unique Signature Effects Instantly
Signature effects give your vocal a distinct personality, but achieving this often requires
complex routing and specialized plugins.
Pulsar Vocal Studio integrates unique FX algorithms, including vintage widening, formant and octave modifications, and spectral processing, all controlled with a simple interface.
From sultry, breathy tones to bold stereo enhancements, these effects make your vocal unforgettable.
Effortlessly Tame Sibilance While Retaining Natural Tone
Sibilance can ruin an otherwise great vocal, but over-aggressive de-essing often
sacrifices clarity and character.
Pulsar's state-of-the-art de-esser precisely targets sibilance while leaving the rest of the vocal untouched, ensuring smooth, professional
results without compromising tone.
Transform Vocals into Record-Ready Performances
Reverb and delay are essential to creating a finished vocal, adding space, depth, and
emotion to your mix.
Pulsar Vocal Studio uses state-of-the-art convolution reverb and a range of delay options, from vintage tape echoes to modern, lush effects, so your vocal
sounds polished and immersive right out of the box.
Make Confident Mix Decisions Without Bias
Volume differences can skew your perception, leading to poor mix decisions.
Pulsar's Constant Gain Monitoring automatically calibrates output levels, ensuring you hear the real impact of every setting change.
This allows you to mix with clarity and confidence, avoiding the common pitfall of "louder sounds better."
With powerful tools in a single, intuitive plugin, Pulsar Vocal Studio helps you overcome complex vocal production challenges while enhancing both creativity and efficiency.
11 Special FX
Custom FX chains contribute to the signature sound of a mixer and are part of how he
makes his vocals sound unique and special.
Dealing with complex effect chains and routing can be overwhelming, and frequently one
