Not Just Any Vocal—a Butch Vig Vocal
From Kurt Cobain to Shirley Manson
Butch Vig’s vocal productions have a distinctive quality that emphasizes the singer’s essence
whether heavily or lightly processed. This plugin captures Butch’s favorite settings
and helps bring out the essence of your vocals.
Put Your Vocals in Focus
The brilliant Focus feature is this plugin’s “secret ingredient.” It emphasizes the front end of vocal notes
while adding heavy compression for the sustain
by combining mid-band shaping and compression.
Vocal Saturation and Distortion from the Master
Between two parallel saturation types and filtering
the harmonic distortion can thicken sweetly
or pulverize. Butch Vig has mastered how and when to add vocal saturation
so it’s not surprising this aspect is thoroughly refined.
Tune In to Butch’s Magic Frequencies
When developing the plugin
Butch reviewed his work on original sessions with Nirvana
Smashing Pumpkins
Foo Fighters
Green Day and Garbage
and found certain “magic” frequencies that always did the job. The Mid Dip filter
Lows
Presence
and Air controls come pre-tuned to these ideal EQ curves.
Optimized De-Essing for Bright Vocals
With the bright EQ and heavy compression settings used in today’s vocals
sibilance can be a problem. The De-Esser in Butch Vig Vocals is carefully designed to be unobtrusive
effective
and an essential part of this inventive vocal chain.
Give Your Instruments a Voice
Too
Many instruments’ frequencies fall within the vocal range—and for them
this plugin is like a channel strip. Presets for guitar
bass
drums
and piano showcase why so many users process more than just vocals with this plugin.
