03In depth

Tuning and Vocal Character

The Tune-in section controls the intensity and speed of natural tuning, as well as the intensity of hard tuning used as an effect. It also works with formants, voice transposing and the key of tuning. For many producers, the intensity control alone covers most of the work.

The Second Voice section adds a second voice singing in unison. You can transpose it by semitones and switch its octave up or down. The Stereo voice switch activates the doubler, which widens and thickens the vocal.

Distortion, Space and Working with Sections

The vocal distortion is controlled by two knobs and ranges from warm saturation to heavy distortion. Reverb is a plate type tuned for vocals, with few parameters, and the delay includes Feedback and Time controls.

Every section has its own bypass switch, so you can use the Tune-in, Second Voice or FX sections on their own. The developer notes that TrapTune pairs with its sister plugin Voxessor, which handles the technical vocal work while TrapTune handles the effect.
