iZotope Nectar Advanced earns its spot in the toolfarm library as a full vocal-processing suite, pairing guided help from the Vocal Assistant with hands-on modules and Advanced-only tools like Auto Level and Breath Control.
iZotope Nectar Advanced is a vocal production plugin for DaVinci Resolve, built around a set of modules for shaping vocals and dialogue. Its Equalizer offers two 24-band EQs with Dynamic and Follow modes, while the Pitch module handles transparent or extreme pitch correction with an array of creative parameters. Dimension adds chorus, flanger and phaser effects, and two compression modules, a Reverb and a De-esser round out the core processing.
The Advanced tier adds features not found in other versions, including the Auto Level module (ALM) as an alternative to traditional compressors, a Breath Control plugin for reducing unwanted breaths, and a suite of 13 component plugins for building custom chains. Backer generates background singers from eight styles or an imported acapella, and Voices creates vocal layers from presets.
A Vocal Assistant page recommends a starting point and keeps decisions simple. Audiolens can tone-match a reference vocal, Melodyne 5 essential is included, and iZotope Relay acts as a hub linking your mix to the iZotope plug-in collection. Formats include AU, AAX and VST3, all 64-bit only.
iZotope Nectar Advanced is best for mixing engineers and video editors working on vocals and dialogue who want a full module-based vocal chain inside DaVinci Resolve.
iZotope Nectar Advanced is completely free to download and use.
iZotope Nectar Advanced lists DaVinci Resolve 18.5 among its supported hosts, along with DAWs such as Logic Pro, Ableton Live, Cubase, Pro Tools and Studio One. The supported host list also includes FL Studio, REAPER, Cakewalk, Audition, Reason and Nuendo. It is available as an AU, AAX or VST3 plugin, all 64-bit only. For the current list of compatible Resolve versions, check the developer's page before installing, since host support can change between releases.
iZotope Nectar Advanced runs on macOS Monterey (12.6.8) and macOS Ventura (13.5), supported on both Intel Macs and Apple silicon (M-series) Macs in Native and Rosetta modes. On Windows it supports Windows 10 and Windows 11. All plugin formats are 64-bit only, so a 64-bit host is required. If you are on a newer OS release, check the developer's page to confirm current support before installing.
iZotope Nectar Advanced is available in AU, AAX and VST3 formats, all of which are 64-bit only. That covers common hosts across macOS and Windows, from Logic Pro and Pro Tools to Cubase, Studio One and DaVinci Resolve. Because there is no 32-bit build, you will need a 64-bit host application. For the exact formats validated against your specific host and version, the developer's page is the best reference.
iZotope Nectar Advanced includes tools not found in lower tiers, such as the Auto Level module (ALM), a transparent alternative to traditional compressors, and a Breath Control plugin that reduces unwanted breaths. It also ships with a suite of 13 component plugins for building custom vocal chains, plus the Backer and Voices features shared with the Standard edition. Melodyne 5 essential is bundled as well. These additions sit on top of the core modules for EQ, pitch, dynamics and effects.
iZotope Nectar Advanced is listed as free in this catalog. Licensing and pricing for iZotope products can change and may differ by edition, since Elements, Standard and Advanced each carry different feature sets, so check the developer's page for current terms before downloading. The Advanced edition covered here is the one with the full module set, the 13 component plugins and Advanced-only tools like Auto Level and Breath Control.
