What Nectar 4 Advanced Educational Version does
The plugin groups its tools into a single chain. The Vocal Assistant uses machine learning to build custom presets aimed at the vocal being loaded, and the Auto Level Module adjusts vocal levels before the other processing runs, so manual volume automation is not needed. Dynamic EQ with a Follow EQ mode tracks and removes resonances in real time, and the Improved Unmask feature lowers competing mix elements so the vocal stands forward.
Inter-plugin communication lets Nectar 4 exchange tonal balance data with other iZotope plugins in the same session. A Reference Any Voice function separates the vocal from a reference track and tone-matches it, and the AI powered Backer Module adds artificial background singers, with eight styles and the option to import an acapella. The release is packed as a repack, distributed as .rar and .iso files, and the macOS build circulates as a .dmg crack, while the Windows build is shared as an x64 crack and x86 crack with a magnet link attached.
Key features
- Vocal Assistant presets. Machine learning creates custom presets that match the vocal being processed, and a preset similar to a desired sound can be loaded and then adjusted.
- Auto Level Module. The ALM adjusts vocal levels before processing and provides consistent volume without the artifacts of traditional compressors, with a Tame Noise feature that separates sung and unsung content.
- Dynamic EQ with Follow EQ. Real-time tracking removes troublesome resonances while the vocal plays.
- Improved Unmask. Competing mix elements are reduced so the vocal takes priority in the mix.
- Voices module. Instant vocal layers are built from a single take, allowing complicated harmony arrangements.
- Backer Module. Artificial background singers sit behind the main vocal, with eight styles and support for imported acapella tracks.
Use cases
- Matching a reference vocal. Reference Any Voice analyses a reference track and applies its tonal character to the loaded vocal.
- Building a DAW vocal template. Nectar 4 can be placed in a DAW template so that custom chains are rebuilt for each vocal.
