Synchro Arts VocALign PRO 4 - VST

This new version operates with Cubase 5 and 4 as well as Nuendo 5 and 4.

VocALign is the audio editing tool that automatically synchronizes two audio signals at the touch of a button. VocALign massively speeds up audio synchronization tasks and increases the quality of results by automatically "micro-editing" the new audio to align the timing of its modulations to match those of a guide audio signal.

The range of applications for VocALign typically include:

• Lip-syncing dialogue and vocals.
• Tightening-up of double tracking and backing vocals.
• Tightening up instrumental recordings including horn parts, guitars, strings.
• Foreign dialogue replacement.
• Multimedia applications.

Exclusive features in VocALign PRO:

• Advanced alignment algorithms: Alignment accuracy is greatly improved by using the latest in sophisticated pattern recognition algorithms.
• Sync Points: User-set targets for audio alignment to occur at specified pairs of linked key points in the two signals.
• Protected signal blocks: Users can mark sections of the Replacement (Dub) signal to not be time-compressed or expanded during alignment.
• Two methods of TimeMod (time compression/expansion): An additional Frequency Domain editing algorithm (optimised for best results with some single-pitch signals) is available in addition to the highly efficient Time Domain editing algorithm (for more complex signals).
• Longer maximum signal length: Up to 5 minutes (instead of 2 minutes).
