How it works — inside the plug-in

Insert AU or VST3 on a track, connect your account, then move to the start of the section you want to analyse.

Illustration based on the actual plug-in layout. Values and analysis results are examples.
  1. 01CapturePress Start Capture, then play or offline-bounce in your DAW. For normal playback, press Finish & Analyse at the end; an offline bounce is analysed automatically when it finishes.
  2. 02Analysis resultReview the captured track’s peaks and other findings. Hear the processed sound on the next playback after analysis completes.
  3. 03Controls and monitoringAfter analysis, adjust five controls and compare INPUT / PROCESSED / DELTA.

What the five controls do

These controls become available after analysis. Make small changes while listening.

  • STRENGTHSets how strongly the detected repeating peaks are reduced.
  • DE-ESSAdjusts the amount of sibilance reduction.
  • HISSAdjusts high-frequency noise reduction.
  • SATURATIONAdds texture to the processed sound. Choose Warm, Present or Aggressive.
  • OUTPUTSets the final level of the processed sound.

How to install

  1. Download the installer for your OS above.
  2. macOS supports AU and VST3; Windows supports VST3. Use AU in Logic.
  3. Restart your DAW and rescan plug-ins. The install paths are:C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components

If the plug-in does not show up, add the path above to your DAW's plug-in search paths and rescan.
