“The Renaissance plugins have been my bread and butter since I ran my first sessions in Pro Tools in 2000. Renaissance EQ and Renaissance Vox are engraved in me like muscle memory. They’re great, they don’t take up a load of my CPU, and I can use them quickly and move along with what I’m doing.”

“I have been using R-Vox for years. Even without adjusting the levels it adds warmth and a gentle thickness to whatever you put it on, be it a snare drum, guitars, synths or vocals. I love that it can be naked and transparent, but if you want you can really hear the compression. I also love that even when you slam it, the audio still sounds open.”

Damien Lewis Mixing Engineer, Producer

Rihanna, Katy Perry, Lennon Stella, The Driver Era

“I can't imagine a vocal without R-Vox on it. What more can I say, it’s three controls and immediately brings your vocal front and center. Don't let the name fool you…try it on drums!”

Alan Moulder Producer, Mixer

Nine Inch Nails, The Killers, Queens of the Stone Age, Foals

“I use R-Vox on a lot of mixes. It doesn’t just compress; it’s great for thickening and is super simple. Same goes for the R-Axx, I use that a lot on bass guitars. I link the threshold and output, so I’m not just getting impressed by the volume increase, then I pull the faders down until I find the sweet spot.”

“Renaissance Vox is a useful tool for my vocals. I want tools that are simple and easy to use: I want to be fast with adjustments so I can focus on my mix. With Renaissance Vox, I can control my vocals easily and have them on the spot with just a few knobs. And like all Waves Renaissance compressors, it’s very smooth: even with hard compression, you don’t hear the comp.”

RENEGADE EL REY Artist, Writer, Engineer

Big Boi, Big Grams, T.I., Killer Mike

“My go-to plugins for vocals are almost ALWAYS the Renaissance bundle because the compressor doesn’t have to be driven too hard, and I can count on the EQ being crispy and bright. ”

Cam Blackwood Record Producer and Songwriter

George Ezra, Jack Savoretti, Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes, Tom Walker

“I LOVE this plugin. It’s really simple to use as it only has 3 sliders; gate, comp and gain. I mainly use it to change the overall compression and output volume of my lead vocal channel. If I need a bit more compression/pressure on the vox, I pull the comp slider down, and if I need more or less vocal volume in the track, I use the gain slider to adjust it. It has a slightly ‘honky' sound (in a good way) and brings out the vocal mids, helping to place the vocal in the track. The gate setting is great if I need to lose a bit of headphone/click bleed.”
