Three knobs turn your singing voice into a voice made for singing on stream. If your voice gets buried in the backing track, turn up SHINE: it adds brilliance and firmness and brings your voice forward, while automatically softening harsh S sounds. SPACE adds ambience like singing in a hall, and ECHO adds a karaoke-style echo. Not sure where to start? Pick one of the 5 presets.
When the bar on the OUT meter stays inside the band, your level is right for streaming, and it never distorts however far you turn the knobs. It adds no processing delay, so your voice stays in sync with your lips on stream. In OBS Studio, you can use it as a filter on your mic through the free OBS plugin atkAudio Plugin. It is a sister product of VELVOX (for the speaking voice).
VELCANTO Pro (on Gumroad, also on itch.io) adds PITCH, which pulls only the notes that drift toward the nearest note and leaves in-tune notes and your inflections as they are, plus AUTO to choose KEY by listening to the song, a pitch needle, ROBOT for a stepped robotic voice, SING to return to your natural voice for talk between songs, 7 presets and saving your own settings.
