HumBox VM1 is a synthesizer designed for creating high-quality backing vocals, solo lines, and unique sound effects with ease. Its advanced sound manipulation capabilities make it ideal for producing realistic scat melodies and vocal simulations, as well as original effects suited for movie and game soundtracks. The instrument responds sensitively to your playing, allowing expressive and dynamic performances that bring virtual vocals to life.

The synth includes 10 distinct Voice Banks and 50 Styles, each offering multiple variations to define vocal character and performance nuances. Styles can be used in Solo, Dual, or Poly modes, expanding creative possibilities. An innovative feature of VM1 is its automatic phrasing and breathing system, which inserts volume and pitch envelopes along with natural-sounding noises during pauses, adding a realistic and lively dimension to the voices.

VM1 employs a sophisticated patch parameter system, where each Style consists of seven patches that adapt in real-time based on musical context like velocity, note numbers, and intervals. This morphing of parameters ensures the sound remains expressive and responsive to both live playing and MIDI input. The user interface is designed for simplicity and quick control, with intuitive elements and helpful QuickHelp comments that let musicians focus on creativity without being bogged down by technical settings.
