Alchemist is a sophisticated multi-band processor.
Based on the Flux dynamic processing algorithms, Alchemist features a state-of-the-art IIR cross-over with selectable slopes from 18 dB per octave to 54 dB per octave, with variable corner frequencies. Every band owns a complete dynamic processing section including compressor, expander, de-compressor, de-expander, working in parallel with independent Angel's Share and Hysteresis parameters. A transient processor and a MS controller are also available for each frequency band. The sound can be processed from single broadband to five bands. The whole processing is completed by an adjustable soft knee clipper.
An Auto Delay function allows to produce a zero attack time by introducing a delay line on the processed signal.
Angel's Share is the parameter controlling the mix of an auto-ratio determined by the signal dynamic and, the manual ratio setting.
Hysteresis is the parameter controlling the mix of an auto-threshold determined by the signal dynamic and the manual threshold value.
Angel's Share and Hysteresis are the key features of all Flux dynamic processors because they depend on on the dynamic range content of the signal, and not only on signal levels as standard processors do.

| Product: | Bitter Sweet II |
| Developer: | Flux |
| Type: | Dynamics (Compressor / Limiter) |
| Price: | Free |
| OS&Formats: |       |
Bitter Sweet is a free dynamics processor to manage audio transients. Turning the central button on the sweet side, decreases the transients amplitude. On the bitter side, the transients amplitude is magnified. Bitter Sweet also features a control for the signal to be processed. When the main position is engaged, the process affects the stereo signal. If Center is engaged, only the M signal of the internal MS matrix is processed. If stereo is selected, only the S signal from the MS matrix is processed. ... [more]
Epure is a 5-band equalizer that uses a "State-Space" implementation to produce the best possible signal to noise ratio whatever the settings are. For every section: Individual bypass. The filter type can be set to low cut, low shelving, peak, hi shelving, hi cut. The gain be set from -24 dB to +24 dB. The frequency range covers the whole bandwidth. The Q factor can be adjusted from 0.1 to 10. Epure also features several unique functions to make equalization even easier: Copy A and Copy B duplicate the twenty settings of a slot to the other in one click. X2 and /2 affect... [more]

Pure Limiter completes Flux's dynamic processor range. Pure Limiter is supposed to be the very last stage of the processing chain for mastering. It has to preserve the audio integrity despite acting like a brick wall limiter. The key point of a state of the art limiting is the release management. Flux has incorporated all its knowledge about the dynamic management to produce, what they claim is, the cleanest, artifact free limiting processor ever designed. There is no compromise between ease of use and the access to all parameters. Pure Limiter has three operation modes: Manual: offers a clas... [more]
Solera offer four primary dynamics functions: Compressor, De-compressor, Expander and De-expander, which can be independently switched on or off as required. For each you can set the threshold, the ratio and a knee. Features: Analog like metering. RMS values are more useful than dB-fs when setting a dynamic processor. The "Angel's Share" parameter takes into account the signal for intelligent relaxation of the compressor action. The "Hysteresis" parameter allows compressing and de-compressing, independently of the sound level, and can be mixed with the standard compres... [more]
| Product: | Stereo Tool |
| Developer: | Flux |
| Type: | Imaging / Panning / Spatial |
| Price: | Free |
| OS&Formats: | |
Stereo Tool offers controls and visual feedback for the stereo stage. It features ultra precise controls of input gain and individual pan for left and right channels. A phase inverter is available for each channel. A global stereo pan and a stereo width setting are also implemented to complete the management of the stereo signal. Stereo Tool also offers an accurate visual feedback reflecting the signal content. A vector scope display, Peak meters for both inputs and outputs, and a phase correlation meter permanently monitor the signal. As all Flux:: plug-ins it features 64-bit floating point p... [more]
