The TA-1VP rackmount processor combines a premium microphone preamp, studio-quality compression and de- essing, advanced microphone and tube modeling, and Antares' world-famous Auto-TuneTM pitch correction. Whether you want gentle, transparent pitch correction, studio-style doubling effects, or the full-strength Auto-Tune effect that's required for pop or hip hop vocals, the TA-1VP brings your vocal sound into the 21st century.

Real-time pitch correction with Antares Auto-Tune Evo

Equipped with Antares' Auto-Tune Evo vocal processing, the TA-1VP brings the world-famous vocal pitch correction effect to your stage equipment rack. And in addition to industry-leading pitch correction technology, the TA-1VP also features the TEC Awards-winning microphone modeler, allowing you to emulate the sound of some of the most legendary microphones ever created. And onboard tube modeling allows you to add the harmonic richness and warmth you'd expect from a vintage tube mic preamp.

Simple interface and control set

The TA-1VP makes it easy to access your most-needed parameters at the touch of a button. Processing is laid out in simple blocks for mic modeling, Auto-Tune, compressor/gate, de-esser, and output EQ. Each block has dedicated buttons and metering to access parameters and manage signal processing. With all of your most-needed functions right at your fingertips, you can dial in a super vocal sound fast even in high-pressure live performance conditions.
