Jan 20, 2025

Learn how to load Sync Vx in Pro Tools in order to align multiple vocal tracks.

Please Note: Sync Vx is an ARA plugin and is loaded differently than classic AAX effect plug-ins.

ARA stands for Audio Random Access, a protocol developed to improve the integration between audio plugins and DAWs (Digital Audio Workstations). It allows plugins and DAWs to exchange information about audio content and session structure seamlessly.

Sync Vx aligns audio from multiple tracks, so you’ll need to load it on each track you wish to sync.

Enabling Sync Vx for all clips on the track

To enable Sync Vx for all audio clips on a track at the same time, load Sync Vx from the Elastic Audio Plug-In Selector menu in the track header:
