Playfair Audio has announced Body, a free one-knob dynamics plugin built on the same DSP engine that powers their flagship 'Dynamic Grading' software.
Body gives users a straightforward way to hear Dynamic Grading's approach without the learning curve of the full product. It uses Playfair's Spectrum and timing engine together with the Source Learn feature from Dynamic Grading, but with parameters fixed to proven, musical settings for fast results.
The Core Of Dynamic Grading
While many processors focus on traditional upward or downward compression and expansion, Body takes a different approach. Based on Dynamic Grading's Body concept, it reacts around the centre of a signal's dynamics rather than simply pushing from above or below. The result is a more natural and musical response, enhanced by the familiar Source Learn feature that automatically sets thresholds for effortless operation.
Availability
Body is free to anyone who signs up to the Playfair Audio newsletter at playfair-audio.com/body, after which the download links will be delivered automatically by email.
The free plugin is available for macOS and Windows and carries no copy protection.
A 14-day free trial of Dynamic Grading is also available for anyone wanting to test the full plugin and compare workflows and features.
