NAUPLY

Workflows

NAUPLY plugins work together

Each NAUPLY plugin does one thing well. Chained in your music software, they cover a real journey: from a finished song to a beat, from a vocal take to a mix. Here are the workflows you can follow today, step by step, with the products and the edition you need.

How they work together today

The plugins chain together in your music software: Stems drops its stems as audio (and as MIDI in the Pro edition) with a simple drag and drop, then Studio Duo and Lontana go on those tracks, as inserts or on sends. They don't exchange settings automatically yet: every step stays in your hands.

  1. From sample to beat

    Isolate a drum loop or a bass line with Stems, drag it into your project as audio or MIDI, then color it with Lontana Mod and Delay.

    Steps

    1. Separate the song
    2. Find the loop
    3. Drag the stem into your project
    4. Or replay it as MIDI (Pro)
    5. Add movement with Lontana Mod
    6. Add echoes with Lontana Delay

    Edition needed

    • NAUPLY Stems Premium to isolate drums or bass (up to 6 stems); the Free edition only separates vocals and instrumental.
    • NAUPLY Stems Pro to transcribe a stem to MIDI and lock stems to the project tempo.
    • Lontana Mod and Lontana Delay: free with a NAUPLY account.

  2. From vocal to mix

    A vocal take all the way to the mix: automatic chain with Vocora, a reference's tone with Calqua, then echoes and reverb with Lontana Delay and Reverb.

    Steps

    1. Build the chain with Vocora
    2. Match a reference's tone with Calqua
    3. Add echoes with Lontana Delay
    4. Place the vocal in a space with Lontana Reverb

    Edition needed

    • Vocora and Calqua: sold separately or together in the Studio Duo bundle.
    • Lontana Delay and Lontana Reverb: free with a NAUPLY account.
    See the workflow step by step →
  3. From acapella to remix

    Extract the vocal from a song with Stems, lock it to your project in the Pro edition, then give it a new space with Lontana Reverb and Lontana Delay.

    Steps

    1. Extract the vocal
    2. Lock it to your project (Pro)
    3. Drop it into the project
    4. Give it a new space
    5. Lift the ends of phrases

    Edition needed

    • NAUPLY Stems Free is enough to extract the vocal (2 stems); Premium and Pro give cleaner vocals (MEDIUM and MAXIMUM quality).
    • NAUPLY Stems Pro to lock the vocal to the project tempo.
    • Lontana Reverb and Lontana Delay: free with a NAUPLY account.

  4. The Studio Duo vocal chain

    Vocora builds your vocal chain, Calqua gives it a reference's tone: the order, starting settings and what each one does.

    Steps

    1. Analyze the vocal
    2. Build the chain
    3. Load a reference into Calqua
    4. Capture your sound and set the amount

    Edition needed

    • Vocora and Calqua: sold separately or together in the Studio Duo bundle.

  5. The four Lontana effects together

    Chain Lontana Mod, Delay, Reverb and Shimmer in your music software: the recommended order, insert or send, for ambiences that stay clear.

    Steps

    1. Create a send track
    2. Repeat with Lontana Delay
    3. Blend it all with Lontana Reverb
    4. Add a pad with Lontana Shimmer

    Edition needed

    • Lontana Mod, Delay, Reverb and Shimmer: free with a NAUPLY account.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to buy every plugin to follow a workflow?
No. Each workflow lists the products it uses and the edition needed. The Lontana effects are free with a NAUPLY account, and Stems has a free edition.
Do NAUPLY plugins sync with each other?
Not automatically yet: they chain together in your music software, track by track. Automatic key and tempo sharing (NAUPLY Link) is in preparation.
Do these workflows work in my music software?
Yes, in any software that loads VST3 or AU plugins, on Mac. Dragging stems out of Stems into your project works like dropping an audio file.
