At NAMM 2026, IK Multimedia showcased its free vocal processing plugin ReSing, alongside a new expansion pack
On the other hand, I’m constantly cautious about how AI is used in music.
I can’t sing a note; I’d give Florence Foster Jenkins a run for her money if she were still around. But, I don’t want to sound like Vanilla Ice on the way in, and have software make me Ice Cube on the way out (not even for the extra street cred).
It’s easy to imagine ReSing as an intrusive tool that replaces the artist rather than helping them, and that’s what scares me about AI in music.
However, I have to say that I’m now pretty excited to try it, and I’ll get into why below.
First, here’s a brief overview of ReSing and Resing Free.
ReSing is a voice modeling plugin and a standalone application that lets you replace scratch vocals with professional-sounding voice models.
IK Multimedia brought together a diverse collection of professional session vocalists to create these voice models using advanced AI technology.
In addition to choosing a voice model, ReSing allows you to tweak every aspect of the performance and delivery, from the character (Lively, Smooth, Energetic, etc.) to the dynamics.
You can also adjust pitch, timbre, timing, expression, and articulation.
In short, you can make your bad vocal sound like someone else’s good vocal, and it can sound very natural and convincing.
Another aspect that might appeal to many users is that ReSing functions directly on your computer without any cloud-based data transmission or queuing.
If you’re a great singer, ReSing is still for you; you can model and license your voice to others as another income stream.
ReSing Free provides all of the ReSing workflow besides model generation, but has fewer voice models.
Resing has ten voice models (MAX has 25), and Resing Free has two voice models.
The free models are Neil and Jenny.
Neil is a baritone, well-suited to rock and blues. Jenny is a soprano, ideal for pop and jazz.
You’ll find ReSing in your IK Product Manager, and if you click “Try”, then “Modules”, you’ll see your serial number, ready to register. Thanks to BPB reader AnderLobo for highlighting this on our January deals thread.
The ReSing Voices Vol 1 expansion pack (€99.99) features eight new voice models (not included in any other version), and it’s compatible with ReSing Free.
While I never want to see AI (even modeled on real singers) taking centerstage and replacing a real-life musician, I can see various ways I’d use it.
ReSing will allow me to make convincing demos when good ideas would be lost in translation if I were dependent on my singing. In cases where bringing in a singer isn’t an option, I love this.
There are some existing tools, but choirs generally perform better than soloist apps, so ReSing seems to be a significant step up.
Very few things in music sound better than beautifully stacked vocals; Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder are prime examples of that.
As producers, we’ve probably all chopped and re-pitched lead vocals to create lush harmonies, and it sounds great. But sometimes the harmony needs a different character, and ReSing offers that.
I’ve heard ReSing used this way, providing a mini-choir of harmony under lead vocals, and with a little careful tweaking, it sounds incredible.
In a situation where bringing in additional singers isn’t an option, I’d gladly use ReSing in a supporting role on a professional project.
It definitely enhances what’s possible at home, and like any AI-based tool, it’s how you use it that matters.
ReSing Free is available in 64-bit AU, VST3, AAX, and Standalone formats for macOS and Windows.
