Avox has some impressive technology, but there isn't enough about it to make it an essential purchase.

Throat is the most sophisticated tool in the bundle.

3.5 of 5

Pros

Punch can be highly effective. Sybil de-esses vocals perfectly. Throat is unusual and creative.

Cons

Too expensive. Can degrade vocal quality. Duo and Choir aren’t very good. Too expensive.

The bottom line

Avox is an interesting bundle, but it would require heavy use to justify the price.
