Renowned Focusrite Preamp with Impressive Feature List!

The VoiceMaster Pro is designed to create the perfect vocal sound at an unbelievably competitive price point. The unit bridges the gap between the flagship ISA 430 'Producer Pack' and the original VoiceMaster, featuring design aspects from both the legendary ISA range and the award winning, cost-effective Platinum range.

Focusrite VoiceMaster Pro at a Glance:
  • Famous Focusrite Class A preamp plus an instrument input
  • Latency-free stereo monitoring
  • "Vintage Harmonics" processor emulates 1970s tape-based units
  • Tuneable "Tube Sound" circuit and voice-optimized EQ
  • Custom VU meter and optional A/D card

Famous Focusrite Class A preamp plus an instrument input
The renowned Focusrite Class A mic preamp from the original VoiceMaster is retained in the VoiceMaster Pro, but an instrument input has been added to the front, along with phantom power, phase reverse and variable high-pass filter. A new vocal-friendly optical expander follows, so the VoiceMaster Pro provides smoother and more linear processing.

Latency-free stereo monitoring
Perhaps the most innovative of VoiceMaster Pro's exciting new features is a latency-free stereo monitoring section, providing comprehensive headphone monitoring of both the full mix and the vocal (alongside an FX send and return control). The VoiceMaster Por puts an end to DAW latency problems when tracking!

"Vintage Harmonics" processor emulates 1970s tape-based units
Another revolutionary element of the VoiceMaster Pro is the "Vintage Harmonics" processor, designed to emulate classic '70s tape-based vocal enhancement processes. The compressor is an updated version of the Platinum series optical device. As with the ISA 430, VoiceMaster Pro allows the user to change the position of both processing blocks within the signal-chain. (Both the compressor and the Vintage Harmonics sections can be moved around.)

Tuneable "Tube Sound" circuit and voice-optimized EQ
The VoiceMaster Pro also features a new tuneable Tube Sound circuit, providing greater control and clearer indication via an extra tone control knob and tri-color "Drive" LED. The voice-optimized EQ follows, featuring improved breath and absence controls, enabling elegant handling of the varying aspects of male and female vocalists. The ISA 430's de-esser completes the VoiceMaster Pro's processing set.

The Focusrite VoiceMaster Pro is also the first Platinum series unit to feature a custom blue Focusrite VU meter. An optional A/D card is available, operating at 24 bit/96kHz with S/PDIF output and BNC word clock input, providing hassle-free digital connectivity.


Focusrite VoiceMaster Pro Features:
  • Stereo latency-free monitoring section
  • Vintage Harmonics - a revolutionary vocal enhancer
  • Optional 24-bit/96kHz A/D converter
  • Custom Focusrite VU meter
  • Compressor/EQ/Harmonics order can be changed
  • More versatile voice-optimized EQ
  • Improved Tube Sound emulation with tone control
  • Smoother optical compressor
  • New voice-optimized optical expander

Sweetwater Advice

Emmett Andrews
I bought my Voicemaster Pro back in 2005 and have used it almost daily ever since. Quite simply, I can't imagine working without it. If you need a front-end to your DAW that offers a ton of options, The Voicemaster Pro is a great place to look!
Ron Daniel
Looking for a mic pre with a ton of gain, and every kind of vocal tweak imaginable? I was... and I chose the VoiceMaster Pro. From left to right, there's a HOT Class A preamp that sounds terrific. The Optical Expander is a noise gate which can be tuned gently or aggressively. The Vintage Harmonics section is an adjustable frequency band compression that can be set in the chain either before or after the Optical Compressor, which can be dialed in to make vocals sound fantastic. The Tube Sound adjustment is essentially a tube emulator, introducing a lot of extra "flavor" through harmonics. These features are followed by a robust EQ, and even a De-esser (which was obviously designed with usability in mind). The VoiceMaster Pro is one of those forehead-slapping "I can't believe I didn't buy this sooner" pieces of gear, and will fit beautifully into your studio or live-sound setup.
Yuval Fuchs
This channel strip is a Swiss army knife in my studio. I can't imagine a project that it wouldn't be well suited for or which it can't adapt to. Male vocals are smooth, female vocals are warm, and the tube sound emulation along with an optical compressor work wonders on many of my tracks.

Great all around

The week that I got this, I tracked so much different stuff with it...vocals, bass, electric guitar, acoustic guitar, trumpet, violin, you name it this pre sounds great on it. The vintage harmonics se... read more [+]ction is a nifty little tool to brighten up a guitar sound, and the tube sound adds a great classic tone. The compressor sounds great, and this thing has so much crystal clear gain its not even funny. I put up a mic, plugged in some headphones, worked the gain up, and heard EVERYTHING. I'm talking the filter in a fish tank down the hall behind a closed door, traffic two blocks away, everything. I've been using this to find out where my noise problems in the studio are coming from, and one by one I cn get rid of them. What an amazng piece of gear. close [-]
