Interesting.

They haven't updated the plugin collective page yet.

This one looks like an exclusive developed for the plugin collective. Probably a cut down version of one of their other plugins. Sonible is an interesting company so I'm definitely curious.

Reminds me a of iZotope Neutrino & Neutron's EQ Learn feature, here's a more in-depth look https://support.focusrite.com/hc/en-gb/ ... 0010443839

I finally got around to trying the PureMagnetik Lo-fi Ambient Tools. They are kind of cool. I don't have anything like that in my collection of VSTs.

Yeah, they have some pretty unique stuff, and they seem like another cool company (along with Focusrite/Novation), with their support of artists.

I think Balancer is pretty cool, and I've found some use for it immediately in some things I'm working on. But does anyone know what Mastering the Mix's Grow is? All I could see on their page is that it's part of another plug-in (Animate), which suggests to me that in order for it to work effectively, I'll need to buy the other plug-in...which I don't want (I like my mixes static, two-dimensional and boring, thankyouverymuch).

I have no association with Focusrite, but certainly appreciate their continued support of the Plug-in Collective, as I know many of you do. We all may not necessarily need each plug-in (or we may already have it), but I don't know of another hardware or software developer in this industry (or any other I work in) doing anything like this. Of course, I'm not saying there isn't one; I'm just saying I'm not aware of one.

Didn’t get the email about Balancer, so many thanks to the posters in this thread

This is a simplified version of SmartEQ. It operates similarly, but the full version lets you customize the EQ curve. Great giveaway.

Also, the color grading on the video is oddly very cold.

I just installed and tried out Balancer and I'm really impressed. Put it on a cheap-sounding, scratchy guitar using 'Warm' and it breathed new life into it. Another excellent freebie. Just a couple of minor things - there doesn't seem to be bypass or output gain controls. Easily remedied, though.

I noticed that I didn't have a key for the 6 month MTM Levels trial this time, probably because I already used it before. However I forgot if it actually worked worth a damn because I don't think I tried it for more than 5 minutes way back when. Anyone not planning on using their key for the Levels trial?
