TC-Helicon brings in April his Voice modeling technology to the Powercore platform. The Voicemodeler can change or improve a voice, a "thin" vocal into a "throat" one, a "male" into a "female". A complete control is possible on the parameters of the voice: morphing, crispness, breath, growl can be adjusted in real time. You can expect more voice effects in charts in the coming month after this release, from the natural to the extreme. Price $249-215eu| The Voice is there | Post a comment ? |
