Product Information

VocAlign 6 Pro is the most advanced vocal alignment solution available today. It is a vital tool for music producers, engineers, and dialogue editors who need to achieve tight, professional vocal stacks without the labor intensive process of manual editing. By analyzing the energy patterns of a "Guide" track and a "Dub" track, VocAlign 6 Pro automatically stretches and compresses the target audio to match the timing and pitch of the original. This results in perfectly synchronized vocals that maintain the natural character and emotion of the performance.

Precision Timing and Pitch Matching

What sets the Pro version apart is its ability to handle both timing and pitch simultaneously. The new SmartPitch technology is a game changer for harmony production. It intelligently recognizes when a vocal is a double or a harmony. For doubles, it matches the pitch perfectly to the lead. For harmonies, it ensures they stay in tune with the track while maintaining their musical relationship to the lead vocal. This means you no longer have to spend hours tuning every individual background vocal layer by hand.

Revolutionary Workflow with Process Groups

In modern music production, it is common to have dozens of vocal tracks for a single chorus. VocAlign 6 Pro introduces Process Groups to solve this challenge. You can now group all your backing vocals together and apply a single alignment and pitch setting to the entire group. If you decide to change the tightness of the alignment, you only have to adjust one knob to update every track in that group. This feature alone can save hours of work on a single project.

Seamless DAW Integration

VocAlign 6 Pro offers deep integration with all major recording software. With ARA2 support, users of Logic Pro, Studio One, and Cubase can process audio instantly without the need for real-time capture. For Pro Tools users, the new ARA compatibility allows for a lightning fast workflow that feels like a native part of the DAW. Even for non-ARA hosts like Ableton Live, the Arm Capture All feature allows you to record multiple vocal tracks into the plugin at once to keep your creative momentum going.

Creative Control and Flexibility

While the software is incredibly powerful at automation, it also provides surgical control for those who want it. The Tightness Control allows you to choose exactly how much alignment is applied. You can create a "wall of sound" with 100 percent tight alignment or a more natural, wide feel at 80 percent. The Protected Areas tool lets you draw boxes over specific sections like breaths or artistic vibrato that you want the plugin to ignore. This ensures that the most important parts of the performance remain untouched.

Sleek and Modern Interface

The user interface has been completely rebuilt with a modern dark theme. It is designed to be easy on the eyes during long nights in the studio and provides clear visual feedback of how the audio is being manipulated. With a full Undo and Redo system, you can experiment with different presets and settings freely, knowing that you can always step back to a previous version of your sound.

Pro-Tip for PluginWorld Users

When producing a large vocal stack, use Process Groups to your advantage. Assign all your "left" panned harmonies to one group and "right" panned harmonies to another. By keeping them in separate groups, you can apply slightly different Tightness settings to each side. This creates a wider and more organic stereo image compared to having every single track aligned to 100 percent tightness.
