Universal Audio (www.uaudio.com) has released UAD Software 8.7, featuring the Manley VOXBOX Channel Strip Plug-In exclusively for Apollo interfaces and UAD-2 DSP accelerator hardware.
Designed specifically for vocal production, it combines Manley’s high-fidelity tube mic preamp, vactrol optical compressor, Pultec-style passive EQ, and de-esser/limiter into a formidable 3U package. Owners of UA’s acclaimed Apollo audio interfaces can track in real time with this all-tube vocal channel strip.
The Manley VOXBOX plug-in also supports Universal Audio’s Unison technology, giving Apollo users the VOXBOX’s impedance, gain staging, and circuit behaviors. The plug-in is also available as part of the new Manley Complete Plug-In Bundle ($699), which includes the Manley Massive Passive EQ and Variable Mu Compressor Limiter plug-ins.
