Harmonic Pro Studio Voice Front vocal chain plugin

  • A finished vocal, fast

    Press Learn, play a few seconds of the song, and Voice Front sets Clean, Ride, Bright and Body for your singer. Five controls take it from there.

  • Every stage in view

    Switch to the Advanced face for nine stages, from noise and breaths to compression and colour, each showing exactly what it is doing.

  • Honest by design

    Auto-gain keeps the vocal as loud as the original, so you compare the sound, not the volume. Delta lets you hear only what changed.

What makes it different

Voice Front works in the order an engineer would: clean the take, ride the level, then compress gently. It knows your song’s key and chords, so it removes the rings a room adds while leaving the notes your singer sings. And it never hides what it did: every stage shows its move, and the Simple controls never overwrite a setting you made by hand.

Features

  • Two faces: Simple, with five controls, and Advanced, with every stage
  • Learn: sets Clean, Ride, Bright and Body from a few seconds of singing
  • Clean: lowers room noise and hiss, with an optional learned noise
  • Ride: evens the level before the compressor, and never lifts the pauses
  • Breath: lowers breaths, never cuts them out
  • Sibilance: de-esses the “s” sounds and leaves bright notes alone
  • Resonance: removes rings and harsh peaks, and protects the notes of your key and chords
  • Tone: tilt, air and four bands
  • Dynamics: two compressors in series, gentle then peak
  • Character: valve, tape or console colour
  • Output: auto-gain, delta listening and loudness in and out
  • Eight snapshots that glide from one setting to another, plus A/B compare
  • Mix mode for every stage, Track mode with no latency for recording
  • Full automation; the same result on every playback and export

Requirements

Harmonic Pro Studio 1.0 or later, on Windows or macOS. Editions and pricing are announced at launch.

Questions

Do I need to know how a vocal chain works?
No. The Simple face has five controls, and Learn sets four of them for you. The Advanced face is there when you want it.
Will it change my vocal the moment I add it?
No. Every stage starts off, so you hear your vocal exactly as recorded until you move a control or press Learn.
Can I use it while recording?
Yes. Track mode has no latency, so a singer can monitor through it. A few stages, such as Clean and Resonance, work in Mix mode only.
What does key awareness do?
With the song’s key or chords, Resonance can tell the notes your singer sings from the rings a room adds, and removes only the rings.
Where can I learn every control?
The user manual has a full page on Voice Front, with every stage, both faces and recipes.
