VocaLive provides singers and vocalists with a suite of 12 real-time professional vocal effects, along with a range of tools to help you practice, sing and record. The effects can be combined into a chain of 4 processors and saved as presets. A collection of 55 presets is included to get you up and running immediately.
VocaLive for iPad includes 12 vocal effects: Pitch Fix (for tuning or stylized FX), Choir, Morph, Reverb, De-Esser, Delay, Parametric EQ, Compressor, Chorus, Phazer and Envelope Filter plus a vocal Double effect available via registration. Together these effects provide unparalleled creative processing power.
With VocaLive you can process your voice, sing along to any song in your iTunes Music library — its Voice Cancel feature lets you remove existing vocals — and warm up with helpful vocal warm-up tools.
Use the new 2-track recorder to sing over backing tracks, or expand the studio section (available via in-app purchase) to record whole songs.
With the optional Mic Room feature, VocaLive also gives you the sound and color of 20 classic and modern studio microphone emulations, for even more control over your vocal tone.
Ready to perform? VocaLive’s new Live Mode offers an optimized GUI specifically for live use. See your entire chain at a glance, with all the settings and controls you need in an easy-to-read format designed for the stage. Plus VocaLive offers an optional 4-track looper to easily create songs, harmonies and more on the fly.
For best quality, use VocaLive with IK’s iRig Mic range of microphones, from handheld to studio condenser mic. Or connect your favorite 3rd party mic using our iRig Pre interfaces. But you can also have fun with it and record quick ideas using the built-in microphone on your iPad or earbuds.
Control your virtual rig just as easily as you would a traditional vocal multiFX with new iRig Stomp I/O integration, so you can change presets, control effects and more right from your feet. Or go wireless with iRig Blueboard, a wireless Bluetooth controller for basic control on the go.
VocaLive also supports Core Audio and Core MIDI so you can use any compatible third-party interface or MIDI controller, and Audiobus and Inter-App Audio compatible, letting you use it alongside your favorite recording or songwriting apps.

Super bummed about this not working with audiobus. I used this app every day and loved it... Now it doesn't work.. You know.. A month ago I would have given this 5 stars but now it doesn't even work so it gets zero stars... I work in a music store and we sell IK Multimedia products. Maybe I should caution my customers against purchasing if they DON'T WORK. Seriously... iK Media... If this isn't fixed right away I am going to fight for my money back and I will never sell any of your products again. The response your support team sent to me seem fake and generic. You told me pretty much just to wait for it to be fixed. Well I've been waiting and it still isn't fixed. I'm about to drive up to the store and take all of your products off of the shelf. iTunes won't let me rate this at zero stars but that's what it gets
Promising But

The VocaLive app has many great features but it doesn't produce in the end a quality recording overall. Currently using an iPad2 64 GB with the iKlip, iMic, etc. What I run into constantly is a very noticeable lag (0.5-1.1 seconds) when using the "No Voice" setting even when using the lowest latency settings and varying how aggressive the pitch control kicks in. Makes it difficult to dub your voice especially in key since you find yourself anticipating when to sing even though you are having to start your vocal possibly off key from the current note(s) being played. Plus the recording quality has been less than satisfactory.....sorta washed out even using the in app purchase of the complete 8 track recording tools. I hesitate recommending this app until I see some interest from IK in upgrading the app as well as giving better tutorials that target specific user complaints.
Amazing sound! Needs Copy/Paste etc

So I have bought this app as well as the iPhone version and all upgrades for it. I also have the iRig mic and sampletank. I have a real recording studio with a Pro Tools HD system and am using this for when I'm away and wanting to work and get some ideas out etc. Now as far as sound quality goes this app is amazing and works really great. I love that I can record a quality vocal with an iPhone/iPad and iRig mic. What is lacking here is audio copy and paste that many other audio apps are using now. Also why is the recording function set up like an old tape deck rather than just a simple daw where you'd be able to fly hooks etc.? That being said this is the best sounding vocal recorder it just needs those things to make it really functional.
3 star app, 1 star company
~D!no
Like Vocalive for iPhone, this app does what it does well. The effects are quite good. There it is.I have iRig, iKlip, iRig Mic, and many IK apps including, as of today, both versions of Vocalive. My biggest gripe is IK's refusal to incorporate audiocopy/audiopaste. I'm still tethered to my desktop to transfer files, even between IK's own apps! Want to write drum beats for your song in GarageBand or Ratatap? Then IK makes sure you're not going to be truly mobile. Even laying guitar in Amplitube requires outside interface to get the tracks to Vocalive! Exacerbating my irritation is the lack of love for the loyal...how many times do I have to pay for the same software? Kick your marketing analysts to the curb and stop sucking us dry...we're a nitch market with limited resources - if we were already successful we wouldn't be here, we'd be in a New York studio.
