Two layers, separate decisions
Give each layer its own character, pitch, formant, and level. Keep one grounded, push the other into a harmony, or split them into contrasting textures around the same performance.

Hear the chain
plugin by plugin.
This is a real vocal running the exact 13-insert RysUp chain we’d use in a session — same order you’d stack it in your DAW. Power the inserts on one by one and hear the vocal come together, then drop the finished chain on the beat.
- Each insert feeds the next — powering one on wakes everything before it.
- Playback never restarts. Toggle mid-line and A/B it like a session.
- No loudness tricks — every bounce is the same take, same level path.

One plugin solves one stage.
A vocal preset connects the full chain.
Use this plugin when you want focused control over one mix job. When you need a DAW ready starting chain for tuning, cleanup, dynamics, tone, and space, compare the vocal presets built for your recording software.

A fraction of the price.
Named mix and mastering tools can cost more outright, live in bigger subscription catalogs, or depend on vendor account managers. RysUp keeps the finish chain focused: one plugin, one simple license key, and the Suite option when you want the whole catalog.

From the build log
What we actually check before shipping.
Practical notes from the Rys Up workflow so this page gives more than a generic plugin description.
01
Vocal-first workflow
RysUpVocoder is tested in real vocal chains before release, not just as a generic audio effect.
02
Format status
Every major DAW. macOS Universal. Windows x64. No bridge, no hassle.
03
Release cadence
Updates ship through RysUpHub so fixes and new workflow improvements reach active customers quickly.
Build the voice in layers
One vocal. Two playable identities.
Start with one focused layer, bring in a second voice when the hook needs more size, then shape the blend without leaving the main screen.
Shape the result from one surface
Set the processed blend, harmony, dynamics, clarity, stereo width, FX, and final output without building a separate effects stack around the vocoder.
Watch Our Presets in Action

Built different
Small team. Real humans. Shipping daily.
The big plugin brands take years between updates. We ship improvements every day — because we're small, fast, AI-accelerated, and actually listening to the people using our plugins.
We iterate faster than anyone
Leading AI in our dev workflow means we ship new features, new plugins, and bug fixes on a near-daily cadence. Waves took 20 years to update their EQ. We update every week.
You ask, we build
Tell us what you want in the plugin and we'll build it. Suite subscribers get direct access to the dev team — submit feature requests and see them shipped, usually within the week.
Here to disrupt, not extract
No iLok dongles. No paid "upgrade plans." No sales teams taking a cut. We skip the middlemen and price our plugins at what they're actually worth. Pro-grade DSP at indie prices.
Got feedback? Send it our way — we read every message, and we ship what the community asks for.
Built for pro records
Drive the vocoder from MIDI, the incoming voice, or a sidechain, then build a second layer with its own character, pitch, formant, and level. Key and scale snapping, processed blend, harmony, dynamics, clarity, width, FX, and output controls keep the sound focused inside one window.
Questions, answered
Everything you need to know.
Can I try the plugin before I buy it?
Yes—you can hear the real plugin in action before you buy. Use the Before & After player on this page to switch between the same vocal with the plugin turned off and on. The After version was processed by the actual plugin, not a recreated effect, so you can hear exactly what it changes before you decide.
What does RysUpVocoder do?
RysUpVocoder uses the shape of a vocal or other input to drive a synthesized carrier. Play notes with MIDI, follow the incoming voice, or use a sidechain source, then control the resulting vocal instrument from the same plugin window.
How do the two voice layers work?
Layer A is active by default and Layer B can be switched on when you want a second identity. Each layer has its own character, pitch, formant, and level, so the second layer can reinforce the first, create a harmony, or move into a contrasting texture.
What do the key and scale controls change?
Choose a root and use Chromatic, Major, Minor, Dorian, or Phrygian guidance. In tuned modes, note decisions are constrained to the selected scale so layered parts stay intentional.
Is every visible control supported in version 1.0.0?
Motion stays at its neutral setting in version 1.0.0 and is not part of the supported sound shaping path. Use Width for stereo spread and FX for the supported finishing control.
Will RysUpVocoder work in my DAW?
Yes. RysUpVocoder ships as AU, VST3, and AAX for macOS with Apple Silicon and Intel support, plus VST3 and AAX for Windows 64 bit. It supports 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz sessions and installs through the free RysUpHub app.
What is the difference between the Suite subscription and buying outright?
Buying outright gets you RysUpVocoder forever for $29.99. The Rys Up Suite subscription is $9.99 per month on annual billing or $14.99 month to month and unlocks the current paid plugin catalog plus future paid releases while your subscription is active.
Do I need an iLok or dongle?
No. Install with RysUpHub, then activate with your Rys Up Audio account and license. No iLok account or USB dongle is required.
Do you offer refunds?
RysUpVocoder is covered by the Rys Up Audio 30 day fix it guarantee. If you hit a problem, send the details through https://rysupaudio.com/pages/contact-us and we will work with you on a fix or the available refund path.
