Flux's IRCAM TRAX vocal processing plug-in doesn't just transform your vocals, it transforms the whole concept of vocal processing. The vocal-morphing tools in TRAX let you get totally creative, treating your vocals as an instrument. There are three powerful tools in IRCAM TRAX, including the Transformer real-time voice and sonic modelling processor, the Cross Synthesis spectral envelope morphing processor, and Source Filter amplitude- and duration-altering sonic enhancer. From mild alterations of pitch and timbre, to dramatic time sustain and vocoder-style effects, you're going to have a blast discovering what FLux IRCAM TRAX can do for you!

• Transformer real-time voice and sonic modelling processor
• Cross Synthesis spectral envelope morphing processor
• Source Filter enhanced sound filtering

Combining a cutting-edge transformation algorithm with an augmented phase vocoder, Flux designed the IRCAM TRAX Transformer to give you amazing sound creation possibilities. This powerful tool has already been used extensively in French cinema. The IRCAM TRAX Transformer can easily change the gender, age, and formant of any voice, but it also does strange and interesting things to instrument sounds.

"Spectral envelope morphing processor" may be a mouthful, but the concept is pretty simple. IRCAM TRAX's Cross Synthesis engine lets you combine two sources, producing vocoder-like effects. In fact, Flux designed the IRCAM TRAX Cross Synthesis section to allow you to continuously blend modulation and carrier signals, making it easy to create exciting and dynamic vocal sounds.

IRCAM TRAX's Source Filter is worth the price of admission alone. This amazing processor works by manipulating the amplitude contour of your sound independently from its frequency envelope, essentially separating the volume from the tone. That lets you use TRAX to do everything from endlessly sustain vocal notes to blending sounds with waveforms. Put simply, IRCAM TRAX's Source Filter lets you completely transmogrify your sound. You're going to have a blast with this plug-in!
