Vox Humana | Bob Moog Foundation

About Vox Humana

UJAM teamed up with the Bob Moog Foundation to create the Vox Humana plug-in based on the first preset from the legendary Polymoog 280A.

All proceeds from the sale of this plug-in go to the Bob Moog Foundation to support their efforts in education, preservation, and the Moogseum.

See the product page for general info and compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q) Is there a trial available?

A) No, but there are sound examples on the product page as well as a video from Alex Ball that demonstrates the plug-in's controls.

Q) Why am I not seeing Vox Humana in the UJAM App after purchasing it?

A) The Vox Humana plug-in was created by UJAM for the Bob Moog Foundation, so is not installed or activated by the UJAM App.

Q) Why am I not seeing Vox Humana in my DAW?

A) The Vox Humana plug-in is a stereo plug-in, so some DAWs require a stereo track to use it. It's also in the "BMF" folder (when looking by manufacturer), not "UJAM" like our typical plug-ins.

Q) Why didn't I get Vox Humana when I bought the Music Creation Suite?

A) The Vox Humana plug-in is not a typical UJAM product - it is a collaboration between the Bob Moog Foundation, Alex Ball and UJAM, with all proceeds going to the Bob Moog Foundation (a non-profit that provides music/audio education).

Q) Why does Vox Humana show a warning icon over its name and not open the UI in GarageBand?

A) GarageBand has a default security level that prevents the loading of third party plug-ins. To use a third party plug-in, you'll need to click the "Lower Security Settings" option. The default GarageBand option can be reset if needed.
