JVP UserÕs Manual 9 CHAPTER 1 Getting Started The AnTares Voice Processor is a unique software plug-in for TDM well suited to almost any recording, broadcast, and post production application. JVPÕs functions include a de-esser, a compressor with a downward expand- ing gate, a parametric EQ, and a multi-tap delay all presented in a familiar user interface. While JVP works brilliantly on vocal enhancement, its unique set of digital tools also makes voices, instruments, sound effects, and complete mixes sparkle with rich detail. Designed by musicians for musicians, JVP is an unbeatable combination of raw processing power and extraordinary value. How To Use This Manual JVP has a transparent user interface and is extraordinarily easy to use. How- ever, some functions of JVP may not be immediately obvious. We strongly recommend that you read chapters 2 and 3 of the manual to take full advan- tage of the quality and control that JVP makes possible. We assume that you already know how to operate ProTools/TDM. If you have questions about this, refer to your ProTools manual or call Digidesign for tech support. For Those Who Hate To Read ManualsÉ We recommend that you leave the manual within reach when Þrst learning JVP. When you come across something that you donÕt understand, take a few moments to look it up in the Index and read about it. The time invested will be well rewarded.
