1: Getting Started
Consequently, we encourage you to at least
scan each of the individual plug-in’s chapters
for descriptions of their various parameters.
In particular, Harmony Engine Evo oers new
(and extremely intuitive) ways to specify vocal
harmony, while THROAT Evo, ARTICULATOR
Evo and ASPIRE Evo oer entirely new
approaches to vocal processing, providing
capabilities that have simply never before
existed in a DSP plug-in. We strongly suggest
that you read their chapters in their entirety to
gain an understanding of what they can do.
If you just can’t wait to get some sound going,
feel free to load up some vocal tracks and play
around with the various AVOX  plug-ins. (Be
sure to check out Harmony Engine Evo’s and
THROAT Evo’s collection of factory presets.
They’ll give you a good idea of what they’re
capable of as well as providing inspiration for
your own creations.) Then come back and dig
into the details.
How to use this manual
The plug-ins that make up the AVOX  suite have been designed with clear, consistent,
friendly user-interfaces. If you come to AVOX  with previous vocal processing
experience, you will find that most of their functions are self-evident and are extraordinarily easy
to use. However, since some of the AVOX  tools do things that have never been done before (or do
them in new ways), a few aspects of their user-interfaces may not be immediately obvious.

Installing AVOX 
The AVOX  installer will give you the option
of installing all, or any combination, of the 11
AVOX  plug-ins. (While we can’t imagine why
you wouldn’t want to install all of them, you
at least have the choice.) If you do choose to
install only some of them, you can always run
the installer again later to install the rest.
The AVOX  plug-ins are designed to function
in a wide variety of digital audio applications.
Please refer to your specific host application’s
user manual for more information on installing
and using plug-ins.
