Built for those that understand the importance preprocessing, the SoapBox from CEntrance is a highly portable dynamics processor capable of delivering studio-quality noise-gate, compression, de-essing, and preamp duties to give your vocals a huge boost, either in the field or in your home studio. The SoapBox cleans up your speech and helps you sound your best, anywhere, through its multi-VCA circuit design and intuitive interface that provides easy access to all controls and displays your signals clearly with a dimmable 8-segment LED VU meter.
