That means you can use it with any microphone, in nearly any app, including streaming software, video editors, and DAWs.

Key features

  • Works with any microphone or audio source
  • Available as VST3 (Windows) and AU (macOS)
  • Real-time or post-production processing
  • Adjustable strength for tailored results
  • One-time purchase, lifetime license

Use cases

Streaming and recording

If you are streaming or recording, Voice Focus can help keep your voice crystal clear. In Wave Link, just add it to your microphone channel and it will handle background noise for you. Prefer OBS Studio? You can load Voice Focus there as well, so your audience always hears you clearly no matter what is going on around you.

Video meetings

Apply Voice Focus to Zoom, Teams, or Slack calls. Even if your colleagues use noisy mics, you can clean up their audio through Wave Link.

Video editing

Working in Adobe Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, or Final Cut Pro? Voice Focus can help smooth out room tone, quiet a faint electrical hum, or cut down background noise. Just drop it on your track like any other effect.

Music and podcasting

Use Voice Focus in Logic, Pro Tools, FL Studio, or Audacity for clean vocals. Apply it in real-time or across full voice tracks in post-production.
