If you've been using Rapchat for a while and are wondering where the old vocal effects have gone, here’s everything you need to know about our recent updates and the new features available to you!

New and Improved Vocal Effects

We replaced the old vocal effects with over 100 brand-new vocal presets to enhance your creative toolkit! These updated presets offer more customization than ever, designed to help you achieve the perfect sound. Crafted with input from top producers and engineers, these new effects are tailored to suit a wide range of styles and genres. Here are some fan favorites:

  • The Sauce: Ideal for modern trap, R&B, and hip-hop, with Vocal Tune, reverb, and EQ for a polished, stylish sound.

  • Soul Wave: Inspired by soulful artists like Rod Wave and Lil Durk, this preset offers a smooth, resonant tone perfect for emotional ballads.

  • Drillmaster: Made for Drill, with aggressive, punchy effects to help you stand out over heavy beats.

Another exciting addition is the AI Vocal FX Generator, available on iOS. You can now generate custom effects just by describing the sound you’re after. For example, you could type:

  • “Spacey atmospheric vocals like Playboi Carti”

  • “Echoey Travis Scott sounding ad-libs”

  • “Crisp punch-in rap vocals like DaBaby”

The AI will craft a unique preset based on your description, allowing you to create a sound that matches your vision. While these features are currently available with a Gold subscription, you can unlock the power of AI-generated effects and all the new presets by upgrading!

What Happened to the Old Effects?

As part of this upgrade, we’re sunsetting the old vocal effects. However, Gold members will retain access to these effects for the remainder of their subscription, and any existing projects with these effects will remain unaffected. However, to modify the effects in old projects you will need to have an active Gold subscription.

Why do I need a Gold Subscription to use the vocal effects now?

We understand that free access to vocal presets was previously available, and we’ve made changes to improve the overall experience and offer more advanced features. By moving all vocal effects to the Gold tier, we’re able to invest more in development, ensuring you have access to the latest tools and highest-quality effects. This change allows us to continue enhancing the platform with new features, improved effects, and additional customization options that elevate your music production experience.

Upgrading to a Gold subscription not only unlocks these powerful new tools but also supports ongoing improvements that benefit the entire Rapchat community. If you’re ready to explore the full potential of our vocal effects and take your music to the next level, consider joining Gold today!
