PC-2 Psychoacoustic Compressor

Conventional compressors are based on peak or RMS-level estimation to compute their time-variant gain or attenuation. This property of most compressors often causes undesirable inter-modulation distortion and pumping/breathing artefacts.

PC-2 Psychoacoustic Compressor features a 'psycho-acoustic relevance' mode. Instead of using a peak or RMS-level estimation, this mode employs a perceptual loudness model to compute the loudness of the input signal. This perceptual loudness model is combined with advanced attack and release stages that model peripheral adaptation of the human auditory nerve. The result is a very transparent compression characteristic, even with very short attack and release times.

Alternatively, the simple, classic compression behavior can be engaged too by simply switching off the complex loudness model.

Product: Auditor Pro
Developer: Jeroen Breebaart
Type: Analyser / Monitor
Price: €5
OS&Formats: WindowsVST
Auditor Pro is a zero-latency professional metering plugin that features the following properties to be measured: Amplitude of left and right signals (with clip indication). Amplitude of mid and side signals (with clip indication). Peak amplitude of left and right signals. Peak amplitude of mid and side signals. RMS of left and right signals. RMS of mid and side signals. Realtime spectrum. Realtime correlation (or stereo phase). The output scales can be adjusted according to conventional scales (with 0 dB corresponding to full scale), as well as K12, K14 and K20 scales. The plugin su... [more]

Product: Ferox
Developer: Jeroen Breebaart
Type: Lo Fi
Price: Free
OS&Formats: WindowsVST
Ferox accurately reproduces the saturation and hysteresis effects that result from analog, magnetic tape recording. Features: Separate controls for saturation, hysteresis and noise effects.

Product: FSynth Pro
Developer: Jeroen Breebaart
Type: Resynthesizer
Price: €10
OS&Formats: WindowsVST
FSynth Pro is an audio effect that allows you to modify the envelope and filter characteristics of audio tracks as if it contained MIDI data. This means that attack, decay, sustain and release characteristics of audio event can be changed, as well as filter envelopes. FSynth Pro detects new audio events in the incoming audio signals, and configures an internal synthesizer in real time to sound very similar to the detected event. The envelope and filter characteristics of this internal synthesizer can subsequently be modified to drastically change the character of audio events.... [more]
