“I have a good amount of Waves plugins, like the CLA Vocal (pictured, right) and the JJP Vocals. I think that most people use those. These are all basically one vocal engine that includes compression, EQ Boost, Delays etc."

Steve Aoki: "It's a really great, intuitive program. Everything is on the screen, you can just figure it out right there on the spot. And I've been using it, especially for leads."
