Induce more LSS (Last Song Syndrome) by creating impressive vocal tracks for your music, with these top vocal VST plugins.

Since vocal tracks carry the message and melody to your listeners, they are simply the most important of all the tracks in your mix. With that in mind, here are the best vocal vst plugins that will help you clean up your vocal tracks as well as enhance pitch and timing. I've also included vocal VST plugins that give you the right amount of punch and presence to let your vocal tracks stand out in the mix. Aside from enhancing your vocal tracks, some of these plugins can also add excitement to your song through employing various vocal effects.

	Antares Auto-Tune Live Get it now:	We gave Auto-Tune the top spot because it made vocal work easy and convenient. The latest version called Auto-Tune Live is optimized for real-time pitch correction and is useful for applying modern pitch changing effects during performances. It can easily correct pitch or modify intonation in real-time, letting you sing without worrying about distortion or artifacts. You can use it to apply transparent pitch correction for typical singing, or go over the edge with the alien and robot tuning effects that made Auto-Tune popular. Auto-Tune's ability to correct pitch is so good, it became notoriously synonymous to cheating. Love it or hate it, Auto-Tune is here to stay and it would be in your best interest to utilize this indispensable tool.
	Celemony Melodyne Get it now:	Melodyne is a common favorite among producers because it provides absolute control over your vocal tracks - letting you fix, modify and enhance vocal timing and intonation. If you are looking for a one button instant vocal effect plugin, you can try the others on this list, but if you have the patience to deal with in-depth vocal track manipulation, this is your best choice. Other capabilities include scale transposition, pitch manipulation, and it lets you adjust melody, harmony, vibrato, volume, formant and even rhythms. It also works well with instrument tracks, adding much to its value. This is a must have tool for music producers.

This bundle is meant to be the ultimate vocal toolkit, providing all essential effects and tools that match the quality of expensive hardware. At the core of this bundle is Waves Tune, a pitch correction and transformation software that puts emphasis on transparency.
