StarStarStarStar

Limiter

StarStarStarStar

A specialized compressor with a high ratio, designed to prevent peaks from exceeding a certain level (threshold); ensures no clipping occurs in the final output.

StarStarStarStar

Dynamic EQ

StarStarStarStar

Combines the features of an EQ and a compressor; applies equalization dynamically depending on the input signal's level, allowing frequency-specific compression.

StarStarStarStar

Delay

StarStarStarStar

Delays the audio signal to create an echo effect; can be synchronized with the tempo of the track for rhythmic effects or used creatively for sound design.

StarStarStarStar

Gate

StarStarStarStar

Reduces low-level noise by only allowing signals above a set threshold to pass through; commonly used on drums to reduce bleed between microphones.

StarStarStarStar

Phaser

StarStarStarStar

Modulates phase relationships to create a sweeping effect; more subtle than flanger and often used for adding movement to static sounds.

StarStarStarStar

Reverb

StarStarStarStar

Simulates the natural reflections of sound in a space; adds depth and space to a mix, making elements feel like they are in an actual room or hall.

StarStarStarStar

Flanger

StarStarStarStar

Creates a swirling effect by mixing a signal with a slightly delayed and modulated copy of itself; stronger and more pronounced than chorus.

StarStarStarStar

Multi-Band Compressor

StarStarStarStar

Divides the audio spectrum into separate bands and applies compression individually to each; provides finer control over dynamics across the frequency range.

StarStarStarStar

EQ (Equalization)

StarStarStarStar

Adjusts the balance of frequency components in an audio signal; commonly used to shape the tonal balance and remove problem frequencies.

StarStarStarStar

Exciter

StarStarStarStar

Enhances high-frequency content by generating artificial harmonics; allows sounds to cut through the mix more effectively without increasing volume.

StarStarStarStar

Transient Designer

StarStarStarStar

Adjusts the attack and sustain characteristics of an audio signal; can make drums punchier or reduce the ring of a sound.

StarStarStarStar

Compressor

StarStarStarStar

Reduces the dynamic range of an audio signal; used to control the level of peaks and increase the overall level without clipping.

StarStarStarStar

Convolution Reverb

StarStarStarStar

Simulates realistic acoustic spaces by using impulse responses; highly accurate recreation of real-world environments or hardware reverbs.

StarStarStarStar

Pitch Correction/Auto-Tune

StarStarStarStar

Corrects the intonation of an audio signal in real-time, allowing for transparent correction or creative effects as made popular in various music genres.

StarStarStarStar

De-Esser

StarStarStarStar

A specialized compressor designed to reduce sibilance in vocals by attenuating high-frequency 'ess' sounds without affecting the overall signal level.

StarStarStarStar

Stereo Imaging

StarStarStarStar

Modifies the spatial properties of a sound within the stereo field; can widen a mix or correct phase issues between left and right channels.

StarStarStarStar

Chorus

StarStarStarStar

Duplicates the audio signal, delays it slightly, and modulates the delay time to create a thickening effect; useful for adding richness and movement.

StarStarStarStar

Harmonizer

StarStarStarStar

Generates harmonically related notes or voices based on the input signal; can be used to create complex harmonies or to fatten a sound.

StarStarStarStar

Distortion

StarStarStarStar

Alters the harmonic structure of a signal, adding harmonics and creating a 'gritty' or 'driven' sound; used for guitars, vocals, and other instruments to add edge.

StarStarStarStar

Saturation

StarStarStarStar

A mild form of distortion, emulating the warmth and harmonic complexity added by analogue tape or tubes; often used on vocals, drums, and mixes to add perceived loudness and depth.
