IK Multimedia,
the leader in mobile music making software,
apps and accessories, is proud to announce VocaLive 3,
a major update to the professional,
full-featured vocal effects and production suite
for iPhone and iPad. VocaLive 3 gives
vocalists the effects and tools they need to
create and perform stunning vocals for live settings and
for recordings on-the-go, at any time, anywhere.
VocaLive 3 is a complete Vocal effects
processing and recording suite that lets
vocalists create stunning vocal tracks on their
iPhone or iPad. It features 5 vocal effects -
Pitch Fix, Choir, Morph, De-esser, and Doubler,
plus 7 utility studio effects - Reverb, Delay,
Parametric EQ, Compressor, Chorus, Phazer and Envelope
Filter. Users can add up to 4 effects in the processor
chain and use their iPhone or iPad to perform live or
record with its integrated, expanded Recorder/DAW.
VocaLive is designed for use with IK's extensive
iRig line of digital and analog microphones,
and audio interfaces, including: iRig Mic Studio, iRig Mic HD, iRig PRO and iRig Pro DUO.
New available features in VocaLive 3 include:
IK's Mic Room microphone modeling technology*,
an integrated 4-track looper*, and the ability
to record up to 8 audio tracks simultaneously*,
plus one additional effects slot in the iPhone
version.
Mic Room - a microphone choice for every voice
VocaLive 3 has a new available "Mic Room" -
microphone modeling feature that lets users
choose from 20 different studio microphone
emulations and add the sound and coloration of
some of the recording world's most coveted
microphones. Musicians, broadcasters and
engineers simply select which input microphone they're
using, and then choose the microphone model they want it
to sound like in VocaLive 3. Vocal tracks previously
recorded in the recorder may also be "re-miked" to
achieve a more perfected or specific sound. Mic
Room features the definitive collection of
vintage and modern dynamic, condenser, ribbon
and specialty microphones.
Loop in creativity
VocaLive 3 also features a new available
4-track looper. The looper is extremely
intuitive to use and may be activated and
controlled via any iOS compatible MIDI
controller, like IK's iRig BlueBoard Bluetooth wireless pedalboard, iRig Pads, or any standard MIDI controller connected via iRig MIDI 2.
Users simply activate the first loop channel
and perform, then hit stop when finished to set
the loop length. Additional vocal loops can be
recorded and activated for the ultimate in
creative vocal exploration and development of
melody, harmony and lyrical concepts. Each
"loop" channel features its own volume control for
mixing, and loops can be exported for use in the
DAW/Recorder or shared.
Simultaneous multi-track recording
Now users can enjoy up to 8 channels of
simultaneous multi-track recording with the
available built-in DAW-like mixer in VocaLive 3.
The Recorder/Studio section provides users with
an integrated comprehensive multi-track
recording studio with all the features found in
the most popular desktop setups. Users have
access to 8 tracks with Pan, level mute, solo, effects
arm and record enable, dual sends per channel into a
master effects section, DAW-style editing and waveform
display. VocaLive allows musicians to create complete
works of art without having to leave the app
and disrupt the creative flow.
Reign with the chain
VocaLive 3 provides an array of utility and FX
processing tools in the form of virtual
stompboxes that can be set up in a chain of up
to 4 slots in both the iPhone and iPad versions.
Once the effects chain is defined, users can
control effects with a MIDI controller like the
iRig BlueBoard, and save their virtual setups
and configurations as presets for easy recall on
the fly.
