Classic console compressor with extra Filter and Transient sidechain options to dominate whole signal. The plugin features the usual set of compressor controls (attack, release, threshold, and ratio), a makeup gain knob, and a dry/wet control. It also features a sidechain input with a high-pass filter and transient controls. Optionally, the user can switch on the Turbo mode, which lets the compressor affect the incoming signal’s entire frequency range. Otherwise, it will focus on the middle frequencies. According to the developer, the Turbo mode emulates the behavior of hardware compressors.
IVGI is a lightweight version of the SDRR saturation plugin by Klanghelm. It features a simplified control scheme, but the underlying analog saturation algorithms are just as good as in the paid version of the software. The plugin is designed as a soft saturation device, intended for use both on individual channels and in the stereo bus. It features four knobs that can be used to fine-tune the character and transparency of the applied saturation.
SPAN is a free real-time “fast Fourier transform” audio spectrum analyzer AAX, AudioUnit, and VST plugin for professional sound and music production applications.
SPAN provides you with a very flexible “mode” system which you can use to setup your spectrum analyzer preferences. You may specify Fourier block size in samples, FFT window overlap percentage, spectrum’s visual slope. Beside that you can choose to display secondary spectrum of a desired type (e.g. real-time maximum, all-time maximum). Spectrum can be smoothed out visually for an easier examination.
Wave Observer is an oscilloscope and monitoring plug-in for time-domain audio analysis. It visually supports mixing, mastering and sound design by offering a number of unique features.
