When we talk about modern vocal production, things like pitch correction and time alignment are an absolute must. While it's possible to align your vocals manually with different editing techniques like slicing, nudging things around, adding crossfades etc, this is a tedious process and takes up valuable studio time.

In this tutorial, producer Marcus Husykens explains how to use VocAlign to align the timing of multiple stacked vocals in just a few mouse clicks. While we focus on just the chorus for the video, with our SmartAlign feature you can align all the vocals in your song at the same time using VocAlign with no chopping or pre-editing needed.
