Waves now shipping Sync Vx, the new standard for vocal alignment


— Match the time & pitch of multiple vocal tracks, with streamlined workflow and unmatched control —

Knoxville, TN, January 20, 2025 — Waves Audio, the world’s leading developer of professional audio signal processing technologies and plugins, is now shipping its Sync Vx plugin. This innovative tool allows users to match the time and pitch of multiple vocal tracks, resulting in tighter vocal arrangements. Sync Vx provides unparalleled control over vocal alignment, enabling music producers and mix engineers to manage entire vocal arrangements in a single, streamlined display. Now, users can assign multiple reference tracks, fine-tune pitch and timing, or get creative with transposition and formant manipulation—all without leaving the plugin. For post-production engineers handling ADR tasks, Sync Vx provides a quick, efficient and precise way to match the time of re-recording dialogue to the original performance.

Producers and audio engineers often spend countless hours working manually to sync backing vocals and doubles with the lead vocal. Post-production engineers face similarly tedious work when having to match re-recorded dialogue. These processes are extremely time-consuming, and even a single misaligned vocal track can turn a professional production into an amateur-sounding one.

Now, with Waves Sync Vx, users can eliminate the need for painstaking vocal pitch matching and time alignment. Sync Vx tightens your vocal tracks in seconds, automatically aligning and locking the time and pitch of multiple vocal tracks to your lead performance—in a way that is as precise as detailed manual work. Sync Vx delivers vocals that feel tight, polished, and professional—with unparalleled control and a more convenient workflow than any tool available to date.

With Waves’ Sync Vx, vocal alignment is more streamlined than ever. The interface allows you to complete all vocal alignment tasks, no matter how intricate or complex, within one convenient plugin window, without having to go back and forth between different windows. Within this single streamlined window, you can assign multiple reference tracks, fine-tune pitch and time, or get creative with transposition and formant manipulation—all without leaving the plugin. This way, you can lock your vocals into the groove quickly.

In addition to aligning multiple vocal tracks that have already been recorded, Sync Vx can also help improve the timing of a specific performance: If a singer does not deliver perfect phrasing, you can record your own voice and use its groove as a reference to easily nudge them into place.

Waves Sync Vx features:

  • Time align and pitch match vocal stacks in seconds
  • Process entire vocal arrangement from a single-window display
  • ARA technology for faster workflow & real-time sync
  • Intuitive workflow with customizable shortcuts, ignore, bypass and sync-marker features
  • Creative features including transpose & formant manipulation
  • Instantly tighten backing vocals and vocal doubles
  • Sync entire vocal sections with 4 reference tracks
  • Replace tedious manual vocal editing with automatic processing
  • Perfect for syncing ADR dialogue recordings
  • Adjust settings globally, per track or per region

With Waves Sync Vx, users can concentrate on their creativity instead of getting bogged down by tedious tasks. Gain greater control over production with all backing vocals, vocal doubles, and harmonies, with an efficient workflow organized within one easy-to-edit window. Sync Vx optimizes workflow with customizable shortcuts, resizable GUI, and normalized waveforms.
