Recording vocals always has one major hurdle one must face -- the annoying sounds during the "S" sounds. These can really hinder a mix and make it sound very unprofessional. This plugin is used to help fix that issue. It's not just for singing, however. You can also use it on spoken word/radio stuff. In fact, I find myself using it more for that than anything else. The plugin is super simple to use. It separates the breath from the voice, and you simply adjust the mix from there. To use this, you simply enable it on your vocal buss and start adjusting. I didn't experience any compatibility issues, so I can't comment on that. I never read the manual, but I don't think it's really necessary for these plugins. It's very easy and simple to use, so no issues there.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

Waves plugins have always been some of the most stable plugins I've experienced. They're cross platform compatible, so they'll work with both PCs and Macs. As a Mac user, that's a huge advantage for someone like me. They run in 32 bit mode, but Logic uses a wrapper-like application that runs so you don't interfere with your 64 bit interface. I've tried this on various different buses, and it seems to work on anything with ease. It even works nicely on MIDI, which I found a bit surprising. There are no performance issues at all, and that's a huge plus when working in a DAW filled with all kinds of synths and tracks running tons of plugins. These plugins came with my Mercury package, and I've had that for a few months now.

OVERALL OPINION

I find myself using this more on spoken word stuff more than anything. Then again, I'm an extreme metal guitarist, so we don't generally have proper singing vocals. For when I'm doing singing vocals, this can really come in handy as those breaths can totally hinder a mix. Waves has made it super simple to adjust the breath from the voice with this program.
