Great plugin chain, this chain of fx has really made my mix sound great.

Vocal fx plugin chain

If there is unwanted mouth noise, insert the Izotope Nectar 4 plugin first to use the tame feature to tame unwanted mouth noises. Try to minimize or eliminate them first when recording, but if you're unable to, then the Nectar 4 Tame feature might be the solution.

1. **Graillion Autotune**: Pitch correction.

2. **Waves Scaler EQ**: Initial tonal shaping.

3. **Audio Assault Double Take**: Vocal doubling.

4. **Xvox Pro**: Presence or clarity enhancement.

5. **iZotope Neutron 4**:

- **EQ**: Additional tonal adjustments.

- **Compression**: Dynamic control.

- **Exciter**: Multiband saturation.

- **Transient Shaper**: Refine dynamics.

6. **iZotope Neoverb**: Reverb for spatial effects.

1. **Graillion Autotune**: Apply pitch correction first.

- **Purpose**: Ensures pitch is corrected before further processing.

2. **Waves Scaler EQ**: Apply initial EQ to shape the tonal balance.

- **Purpose**: Adjusts the sound before adding effects or enhancing.

3. **Audio Assault Double Take**: Add doubling effect after initial EQ.

- **Purpose**: Creates a richer vocal sound with doubling.

5. **Xvox Pro**: Insert this plugin next to enhance vocal presence or clarity.

- **Purpose**: Enhances specific aspects of the vocal signal, such as presence, clarity, or texture.

5. **iZotope Neutron 4**:

- **EQ**: Further tone shaping if needed.

- **Compression**: Apply dynamic control.

- **Exciter**: Multiband saturation to add warmth and character.

- **Transient Shaper**: Adjust attack and sustain if required.

6. **iZotope Neoverb**: Apply reverb last to add spatial effects.

- **Purpose**: Places reverb after all tonal and dynamic processing for a cohesive sound.

Considerations:

**Placement of Xvox Pro**: If Xvox Pro is intended to enhance the vocal signal's character or clarity, placing it after initial EQ and doubling effects but before the final processing in Neutron 4 might work well.

**Adjust Based on Needs**: As always, the optimal order might vary depending on the specific sound you are aiming for, so feel free to experiment with the placement to achieve the best results.

Adding Xvox Pro to this chain should provide additional clarity or presence to your vocals, depending on its specific functionality.
