IVL Vocal Studio
The Digital 8•Bus ships with a free, time-
limited, fully-functional trial version of the IVL
Vocal Studio software package. Trial versions
of other effects processors will be included as
they become available. These plug-in software
packages add functionality to the console and
provide you with more creative choices for your
artistic endeavors.
Note:
The IVL Vocal Studio Plug-In uses all of
the DSP resources of a single MFX card. An
additional MFX card is included in the purchase
price of the IVL Vocal Studio software package.
IVL Vocal Studio: Harmony Example
This is a tutorial to introduce you to the IVL
Vocal Studio and help you discover what it can
do for you. In addition, there are a number of
Vocal Studio presets which you can load to
demonstrate some typical applications. Finally,
refer to Appendix E in the Digital 8•Bus
Owner’s Manual for more details on the
operation and capabilities of this unique tool.
In this exercise we are going to use the
Harmony Mode to produce two vocal harmony
parts to go along with a lead vocal. We’ll also
use the built-in reverb to add reverberation to
the lead vocal and harmony parts, which we
can return to the L-R mix independently from
the dry harmony parts. This is best performed
using a prerecorded lead vocal track.
If you haven’t already done so, download the
Vocalist Plug-in to Card A. Follow the
instructions for downloading the Mackie FX
Plug-in, but select Vocalist instead.
