1 Yr Anniversary Pack - 101 Custom Arist Presets
Over the past year, we've connected with talented creators to showcase the best of Humanoid with creative tutorials, demos, and roundups.
When we reached out for contributions to the anniversary pack, the response was overwhelming!
1 Yr Anniversary features presets from Francis Preve, Hydratek, JA, Jacob Durbin, Kayla Jo, Make Pop Music, Taetro, Tokyo Speirs, Vines and Zardonic.
Covering everything from hard tuning to classic vocoding and experimental presets for non-vocal sources, the pack gives you instant inspiration for modern vocal effects.
We sat down with the creators responsible to get their take on how Humanoid fits into their workflow
Make Pop Music
“Humanoid is such an incredible tool for adding texture, character, harmony, and excitement to my vocal arrangements. Whether I want a subtle effect, or want to absolutely mangle a vocal, the options are virtually endless with Humanoid.” - Make Pop Music.
Taetro
“I can instantly create a totally new vibe using Humanoid on vocals. It gives me control over a vocal like I'm controlling a synth!” - Taetro
Vines
“Humanoid is a great option for creating quick & easy vocal harmonies; I like to pair it with Crystalline for an otherworldly, angelic vibe.” - Vines
Jacob Durbin
“Humanoid might seem like a vocal-focused plugin at first, but I’ve been using it on everything...Drums, piano, guitar, you name it. It’s incredibly powerful and brings a unique character I haven’t found in any other plugin.” - Jacob Durbin
badhabit
“Humanoid is one of my favorite plugins for processing vocals. I love to use it for layering vocals with interesting effects such as vocoders, talkbox, harmonies, as well as on lead vocals for a unique robotic touch. 10/10!” - badhabit
Nathan Tipton
“Making these presets meant diving deep into the settings, improvising with source sounds and dials until something clicked. It was fun to find new uses outside of existing presets - like harmonizing a tritone at the plugin’s lowest octave for monster sounds or turning a guitar into a metal bass.” - Nathan Tipton
Kayla Jo
“Humanoid lets me dissolve the edges of the human voice and reimagine it as something entirely new— bold, alien, and full of character ! I loved creating 10 sun-inspired presets and playing with the variety of parameters in humanoid.” - Kayla Jo
