On EVERYTHING!
I put this on everything before console emulation channels and things just sound bigger. I render all my midi VSTs to audio before mixing and I replicate the way things were done on the 70s/80s. Everything comes "into" my DAW thru this plugin; as if I was recording it to tape in the day.

This preamp not only sounds warm and cosy, it does not only add another kind of saturation, but it adds DIMENSION to any sound. Everything you send through it sounds like if it was live recorded instead of ITB flat 2D. Every channel can benefit from this lovely preamp!

All about vox
Voxy
C. Panetta
I have the VOX box as well
I love this to add some tone when I don't need the bells and whistles on this voxbox or want the Manley pre sound to combine it with other plugins to create my custom channel strip

Simple With Spectacular Results
As a Voice Actor/Producer, this plugin adds some kind of pixie dust to all my voice over recordings. Smooths everything out with a few simple steps and saves me a lot of time getting the right sound for me and my clients without EQ! Sounds beautiful!
