Nectar 4 Features

NEW! Audiolens

Audiolens is compatible with Nectar 4, allowing you to tone-match any vocal sound. Separate the vocal from your reference track and gain valuable information to create a starting point for your mix.

NEW! Voices

Instant, easy vocal layers: find a preset similar to your desired sound, then tweak it to your liking. Available in Nectar 4 Standard & Advanced only.

NEW! Auto Level

ALM (Auto Level module) is an intelligent and transparent alternative to compressors. ALM provides consistent volume levels without introducing unwanted artifacts like traditional compressors, giving you a clean and natural sound. Available in Nectar 4 Advanced only.

NEW! Backer

Create background singers that sit behind your main vocal. Pick from eight different styles or import your own acapella to further customize your sound. Finish up a demo with different flavors of vocalists, creatively destroy ad-lib tracks, or create something new altogether. Available in Nectar 4 Standard & Advanced only.


*Only trained on with English speaking languages

NEW! 13 component plugins

Nectar Advanced comes with a powerful suite of brand-new plugins. Integrate the power of Nectar into your DAW template and build your own custom chains for every vocal in your production. Available in Nectar 4 Advanced only.

NEW! Vocal Assistant page

Vocal Assistant now provides a broad interface for making simple and helpful decisions for your vocal production without getting lost in the details of vocal mixing.

Equalizer

Two 24-band EQs come equipped with Dynamic and Follow modes for adaptive tone crafting.

Pitch

Get transparent or extreme pitch correction and color to taste with an array of creative parameters.

Dimension

Dimension includes chorus, flanger, and phaser effects to add movement and depth to your vocal.

Compressor

Two compression modules ensure dynamic balance and add unique character to your vocals.

Reverb

Add natural space for a subtle “halo” effect or dial in a wash of reverb with intuitive controls.
