I'm looking for a plugin that can add sonic color to vocals without any perceivable distortion.
I have found two that appear to do the job, but they are both black box plugins that make me a bit uncomfortable (because I don't know what they are doing and whether they might induce artifacts down the track).
However, if anyone here uses these in professional production and can vouch for them, then I will consider investing in them.
The first is the Sonnox Oxford Inflator, and the second is the Waves Voicecentric plugin.
If anyone knows how to get a similar result using conventional means, such as saturation, excitation, vintage compression etc, please let me know.
I have tried a few saturation plugins already and have found unwanted distortion appearing even at low levels, so I'm looking for a way around this.
Thanks
