Using Waves OVox is easy. First, if you're using it as a plugin, open your DAW and load the OVox plugin. If you're using it as a standalone app, just launch it. To start, sing or speak into your microphone. You can immediately play around with the 500 presets to get different vocal effects. For more advanced use, try the voice-controlled synth features. You can change the voices, engines, and use the automatic note mapper to create chords and harmonies. When you want to send your voice to MIDI, just click the relevant button, and you can then trigger other instruments. Be sure to keep your microphone in good condition. Clean it regularly to avoid any distortion in your vocals. Also, when using the built-in FX, adjust the settings gradually to find the best sound for your project. If you're using it for live performance, make sure your system is SoundGrid-compatible and test it before the actual event to avoid any technical glitches.
