IK Mics

While VocaLive works seamlessly with any compatible audio input device, it is optimized to work with IK's range of high-quality microphones and audio interfaces, like iRig Mic HD 2 or iRig Mic Studio digital microphones, iRig Mic, iRig Mic Lav analog mics, or iRig Pre, iRig Pre HD, iRig Pro I/O or iRig Pro Duo interfaces.

Use Vocalive with iRig Pro Duo for simultaneous two-channel recording for singer-songwriter projects, duets and more.

Process your voice with powerful tools

VocaLive provides vocalists with a suite of 12 real-time professional vocal effects for studio quality sound in a portable package. Combine up to 4 simultaneous effects in a real-time signal chain.

VocaLive includes 5 "Vocal Effects"Pitch Fix (for tuning correction or stylized quantization FX), Choir (a 3-part harmonizer), Morph (an X-Y pitch and formant shifter that changes the tonal quality of the voice from subtle deepening to radical gender bending), De-Esser (to remove sibilance from the voice), and Double (Double effect gets unlocked by registering).

VocaLive also has 7 available "Studio Effects"Reverb, Delay, Parametric EQ, Compressor, Chorus, Phazer and Envelope Filter.

Together these effects create the perfect vocal processing solution.

Your professional music production studio… always with you

You're on the go. You've got an idea. You want to get it down. But how?
The answer is in AmpliTube's built-in recording features. AmpliTube comes with a single-track recorder that can be expanded in two big ways via in-app purchase.

The first is 8-track simultaneous audio recording with master effects.
The second is the Studio DAW-style waveform-editing suite..

3_iPhone_rec

In an instant, VocaLive transforms your iPad or iPhone into a fully mobile professional recording studio that has everything you need to make complete music productions while on the go.

iPad DAW/Recorder

iPhone_iPad_recorder

Hit record, make a record

First things first — get your idea recorded. Touching the tape recorder button in the control bar transports you to your new recording studio. This is where the magic happens. There’s a preroll feature that lets you set two measures of count-in before you start recording so you can lock onto the tempo and nail your part right from the downbeat. Hit the red “record” button and start your masterpiece. The recorder offers 8 available tracks for simultaneous multi-track recording and a bounce feature for freeing up tracks as you need them. Grab your mic and go!

Freeze

VocaLive also has an AutoFreeze feature allows you to “freeze” or save the effects chain assigned to a track (in other words, write them to the track), freeing up VocaLive’s effects for use on another track, which can then be frozen as well. This feature lets you go back and reapply or reconfigure effects based on how your individual audio tracks “sit” in the mix. So if you want to go back and tweak an effect's settings, no problem, you can “un-freeze” the effects on a track to make your adjustments.

Track control

The recorder section gives you everything you need for professional audio production.

Each track has:

  • A level meter with a clipping light that monitors the input signal of the track
  • An “R” button for selecting the track to record (arm/select on iPhone)
  • Mute and Solo buttons
  • An FX button that enables the AmpliTube signal chain on that track
  • Volume and Pan controls
  • Send 1 and Send 2 controls for sending the track signal to the master effects section
  • 3 bands of EQ per channel

Master of effects

Want to add some polish and sparkle to your mix? The Master Effects section has been designed to give you everything you need to add that extra punch to your finished works. This section is accessed by touching the "Mast FX" button, or swiping the Track controls to the left. There you'll find the Send 1 and Send 2 effects processors.

Each of these allows you to choose from 3 levels of Reverb, 2 levels of Chorus and 3 levels of Delay. Use the “Adjust” button to fine tune the time and depth of the chosen effect’s main parameter. You can also control just how much of the effect shows up in the mix by using the Input, Mix and Output knobs.

ipad_master_fx

Finally, what would a master effects section be without an equalizer? VocaLive gives you a 3-band parametric EQ that's been specially made to help you bring out the sweetness of your overall mix. Take that, run it through the included compressor for tightness and gain control, and you'll have a finished product that's ready to be shared and sold to your fans.

Edit like a Pro in the Studio

VocaLive also has a powerful and intuitive editing tool, the Studio. The Studio brings precise waveform editing and audio region manipulation to the mobile world. It's an easy, visual way of arranging while on the go that's remeniscent of some of the most powerful desktop music creation tools.

iPad Studio

Touching the “STUDIO” button in the bottom control bar accesses the Studio section. It provides access to a range of features that have been designed to help you achieve sonic perfection. Using it is easy, it's split in two display regions on the screen: The Track Control section is on the left and the waveform timeline grid is on the right. With both in front of you, you also have access to the full signal chain plus effects, recording tools, mixing functions and more.

iphone_h_studio

Tracking made simple

The Track Control section houses the controls you need to adjust and tweak the sound on individual tracks. Touch any waveform display on the right — or empty space or track number — to access the individual controls for that track on the left. Knowing where you are at any given time is simple: The number in the upper left hand corner indicates the currently selected track.

You can adjust how much of the track’s signal goes to the master effects section by using the “SEND 1” and “SEND 2” knobs. In addition, we've also included a Track EQ section below the Master button that let lets you fine-tune the EQ on each individual track, just like on a professional mixing console.

In addition to these crucial features, you also get a level meter, a peak light, a quick FX Edit button, pan control and a console-style fader for fine volume adjustment on each track.


Catch a waveform

At the core of the studio module is the waveform display section. This is where most of your audio editing will be done. From this section, you can select audio material by touching on the waveform display. This then lets you perform multiple types of edits with ease: cut, copy, copy track, paste, delete region, delete track, normalize volume or split at playhead.

ipad_studio_edit_track

Tap the waveform you want to edit to gain access to the full range of editing commands. These functions provide all the basic tools you need for working with audio regions. You can even move audio forwards and backwards in the timeline by dragging the waveform around on the screen.

Get around much?

Navigation in VocaLive’s Studio section is done with both multi-touch and simple gestures. You can zoom in and out of a region by pinching in or out with two fingers on the screen.

You can define loop start and end points by dragging a finger from left to right. You’ll notice a green area shows up when you do this. Drag the left triangle to the beginning of your desired loop and the right triangle to the end. Once defined, double tap on the green area to activate it. Then hit play on the transport to begin playback of the loop.

You can also create a “punch in” recording area. Drag your finger from right to left in the navigation bar and you'll create a red “Punch in” section. Adjust the start and end points with the triangle handles, and then activate it with a double-tap. You can de-activate loop and punch in regions by double-tapping again.

Other individual track features include the ability to solo, mute, record enable and activate the VocaLive signal chain on a track. You can record audio material directly to a track in the Studio view by using the “PLAY”, “RECORD”, “REWIND” and metronome transport controls at the bottom of the screen. There’s also a “GRID” button that turns “grid-snapping” on and off, plus “UNDO” and “REDO” commands for the human in us all.

Export Expert

VocaLive also features some handy export features once you’re done with your creations. You can export complete works of art with ease in multiple file formats and share them via email, file sharing or SoundCloud.

No matter where inspiration strikes, you’ll capture it in all its glory with the intuitive and easy to use VocaLive Recorder features. No thanks necessary… really!

Loop in your creativity

The Looper is one of the many useful tools available as an add-on for VocaLive — it gives you a quick and easy way to create up to 4 synced audio loops. Once you’ve created your looping masterpiece, you can easily export your work, and import it into the recorder or simply share your loops with the world. It's the perfect sketchpad for new ideas — it's intuitive interface is designed for easy experimentation and will inspire you to think in an entirely new (and loopy) musical way. Develop new vocal lead lines, harmonies, strange effected vocal layers, add rhythm elements with your voice, or simply record random interesting noise patterns, all at the touch of a button.

iPad iPhone Looper

4…3…2…1…Go!

Using Looper is super easy and intuitive. Just set your preferred tempo and enable the metronome feature. Then tap the "rec" icon on the first loop button. From there it's 4, 3, 2, 1, go! Loop 1 will begin recording automatically, and it wont stop recording until you tap on the loop again.

Layer upon layer upon layer…

No matter when you tap to end your loop, your loops will always sound good because each loop is quantized to the nearest quarter note. Once closed, Loop 1 will continue to play, setting the stage for you layer more in loops 2 through 4. Just tap the "rec" icon on the second loop to start recording the next layer when the playhead comes around, and so on. The length of your first loop determines the length of all the loops the follow, and loop length is limited only by the storage available on your device. Once you've captured your audio, you can mute and un-mute individual loops by simply tapping on the loop you want to silence with your finger or stepping on a MIDI controller button. It's really that easy!

iRig Stomp I/O foot top Looper

Tap dance

Want to get tricky while performing live with your loops? That's also a piece of cake!

The Looper feature integrates iRig Stomp I/O and iRig BlueBoard support and can also be controlled with any connected standard MIDI controller.

That means you can assign each of Looper's loop buttons to a corresponding physical button on a pedal board.

Now you can trigger loops from the floor, leaving your hands for more creative things, like waving at your adoring fans.
