I use this in mastering. It has the ability to make tracks pop, without changing the peak levels and eating up headroom. nice one.

Oh well its a another compressor, problem is it is not that well executed, you can't read the meters and the buttons sometimes become unresponsive. It tries to mimic a vari-mu compressor, but it does not really sound like one, it is based on Airwindows code, and if you know anything about Airwindows plugins, they "don't have a sound", maybe the algorithms are great, but they do not translate to real world solutions, just my opinion. I tried this compressor, could not make it sound good, pass...

This is an extremely gentle deesser. It controls the esses beautifully. It could certainly be a paid-plugin for sure. This is my first choice for deessing, although that does not mean much, i found it easy to use and so transparent. get it now.

At long last a limiter that can rival paid offerings. Beautiful GUI, so many options for the sound. Beautiful! I like to use it in Loud mode to give me that extra loudness and follow it with Loudmax with no limiting, just as a safeguard catching any loose peaks.
Lovely Mastering Limiter! What a time to live, Indie developers rock.

This is a consolidated interface for all of the Airwindows plugins. That is the good part.

Unfortunately the plugins feel and sound like physics experiments. there is not clear direction what each one does, and there are multiple plugins that do the same thing in a slightly different way, most of them are really gentle to the sound, so you don't get a vibe of what they are doing, there are explanatory videos on the official airwindows you tube channel, which will only confuse you even more. plus they are demoed on some really bad recording/production of a rock piece. it's basically the author probably doodling around with recording some default guitar tone. You can see there is passion behind the plugins, looking at the face of the author showcasing them, but they really sound like a software engineer playing around with different audio processing ideas on his free time.

This is such an awesome little plugin. It sounds great and it can push a track backwards to the mix, without making it sound reverberated. Jaycen Joshua would love this one, it is the closest thing to the True Verb trick, but this is better!
You have control over the early reflections sound so you can really make this plugin disappear, and just feel the instrument taking steps behind other instruments. So do you want to push some annoying hi hats behind the vocal? Easy.
Awesome plugin.

This is a pleasant sounding multiband compressor (xovers are set at 6db, which makes the response really smooth) with up to 4 bands, which is all you will probably need ever.

The interface is a bit quirky, because it does not allow you to set numbers by typing them, you have to turn the knobs.
It seems to have either a very soft knee, or some processing is always on, because as you play around with the crossovers before you even bring the threshold down, the sound changes.
As with all compressors the peak level of the signal will change (usually upwards) and there is no expansion setting, so you cant really use this plugin for mastering.

Apart from that, start with the default setting, bring the threshold down till you feel you are changing the tonal balance of the part, stop and add back level to each band to keep the compression control.

That is it. It is good and you can dial a great sound fast. I believe it works great on instruments, it is a bit too aggressive on buses.

This is a fully functional non expiring demo, so if you like it please support the developer.

I guess it's a unique thing... I just don't get it, it certainly has a sound, although you can recreate this effect with stock reverbs and some high end excitement. i believe this is more of a production effect than a mixing reverb.

The plugin is beautifully designed and the sounds well organized. It sounds Amazing, but the player has issues and it needs realtime exporting of the audio tracks, minor inconvenience for the price. The library also includes a piano. Again, it will probably be the only piano you will need,

Nothing special. There are other options that do the same, and even better. GSat+ for example.

Plus it requires an installation of an PACE iLok service and the apple Bonjour service, plus the softube central... your email address spread over at least 2 other websites... but seriously ilok for a free plugin?

The sound is good, if you want the hussle download it, i dont think the sound justifies the extra steps and apps and services installed on your systems. 2.5 out of 5.
