Izotope have tried to make the user interface appeal to musicians, not just engineers, so you'll come across terms such as Clarity, Warmth and Sparkle rather than the usual dB and Hz. These adjustments are important, because processes such as gating and compression depend very much on the input signal level and its dynamics, so some adjustment is often necessary to achieve the best results. Of course, presets rarely offer exactly what you're looking for, so, using just a handful of 'producer level' controls, you can turn the various sections on or off, and also adjust key parameters via sliders within the sections. The function of the last couple of sections depends on the preset selected. An EQ curve display and spectrum analyser always occupy the lower portion of the screen. The main page shows seven sections, each with a simplified control set providing between one and three faders, some of which adjust multiple parameters behind the scenes. As soon as you load a preset, the appropriate settings are made in the various sections, which include automatic pitch correction, breath adjustment, noise gate, compressor, saturation, EQ, de‑esser, doubler, limiter, reverb and delay, though not all the styles use all the sections. The user can choose from a list of preset styles and treatments for instant gratification, whether working on folk or rap, pop or soul. Though Nectar opens as a single plug‑in window, it is actually a type of macro comprising 11 separate vocal production tools. Izotope have come up with an easy solution in the form of Nectar, a cross‑platform plug‑in that is available in RTAS, Audiosuite, VST, MAS, Audio Unit and Direct X formats. Izotope's latest plug‑in provides a one‑stop shop for polished vocal sounds, with deeper editing available for those who need it.Ĭreating a modern vocal sound can involve many different processes and requires quite a lot of skill to get right.
