The Industry-favorite Tube Vocal Processor … in a Plug-in
The Universal Audio UAD Manley VOXBOX takes one of the industry's most beloved hardware vocal processors and packs it into a sonically stunning channel strip plug-in. Like the hardware it's modeled after, the UAD Manley VOXBOX delivers the sound of a tube microphone preamp along with a smooth opto compressor, a Pultec-style mid-frequency EQ, and an effective de-esser/limiter. Moreover, owners of Universal Audio's Unison-equipped Apollo audio interfaces can record through a realistic emulation of a complete VOXBOX — in real time — with direct control over preamp gain staging and impedance. Tailor-made for vocals (but magical on anything), the UAD Manley VOXBOX will infuse your tracks with the assertive, authoritative sound of a world-class, reference-grade hardware channel strip.
Note: This product requires that you have an iLok account for authorization, although it does not require a physical iLok key. Please call your Sweetwater Sales Engineer if you have questions.
Note 2: Do you own Apollo hardware? By purchasing this plug-in, you will receive two licenses: one license allows you to run the plug-in via your computer’s CPU and the other allows you to run it via your Apollo hardware. Please contact your Sweetwater Sales Engineer if you have any questions.
