Product description The Mastering Bundle from FabFilter is a collection of four plug-ins for Mac and Windows computer workstations, which consist of professional quality mastering tools often used by engineers in audio production applications such as studio recording, post production, and more. With this bundle you get FabFilter's professional limiter, EQ, multiband dynamics and compressor plug-ins. This bundle includes Pro-MB, Pro-C, Pro-Q 2, and Pro-L plug-ins. These plug-ins are available in VST, VST 3, Audio Units, AAX Native and AudioSuite formats, in both 64- and 32-bit, as well as RTAS in 32-bit. - Pro-MB Multiband Dynamics Plug-In The Pro-MB Software Plug-In from FabFilter is a professional multiband compressor/expander with six processing bands that can be freely placed anywhere in the audio spectrum. It can be used for audio mixing and mastering applications such as studio recording, post production, and more. Instead of conventionally splitting the entire spectrum with crossovers, Pro-MB enables you to create a new band at the frequency range in which you wish to work. The interactive multiband display clearly shows what the rest of the spectrum is which stays untouched, and, if desired, you can snap bands together to recreate a traditional crossover system. Each band is fully customizable with a threshold, range, attack, release, output gain, ratio, variable knee, lookahead, variable stereo linking, mid-or side-only processing, and much more.The Pro-MB has a Dynamic Phase processing mode that features much of the same frequency response as traditional multiband processors but doesn't introduce latency or pre-ringing. Additionally, it only introduces minor phase changes when the gain actually changes. Also included are a Linear Phase mode and a Minimum Phase mode. The combination of professional processing with interactive multiband display can help you to optimize your workflow.The Pro-MB software has comprehensive MIDI specs, including MIDI learn, Smart Parameter Interpolation for smoother parameter transitions, and supports common Pro Tools hardware control surfaces. The software also offers an extensive interactive help feature, and AltiVec and SSE optimization. The plug-in is available in VST, VST 3, Audio Units, AAX Native and AudioSuite formats (both 64- and 32-bit), and RTAS (in 32-bit).
- Unique Dynamic Phase processing mode featuring zero latency, no static phase changes and no pre-ringing artifacts
- Handles any form of dynamics processing, from highly transparent compression, limiting and expansion to pumping upward compression and punchy gating
- Each band is customizable with features such as threshold, range, attack, release, output gain, ratio, variable knee, lookahead (up to 20 ms), variable stereo linking, mid- or side-only processing, external side chain input, triggering on a separate frequency range
- Steepness of each crossover slope can be freely adjusted between 6 dB/oct and 48 dB/oct
- Global dry/wet mix from 0 to 200% to easily scale the total effect of the plug-in
- Accurate and smooth real-time frequency analyzer with pre- and post-processing options and 'freeze' feature
- Up to four times linear-phase oversampling
- GPU-powered graphics acceleration
- Undo/redo and A/B comparison
- Pro-Q2 EQ Plug-in Software The Pro-Q2 EQ Plug-in Software from FabFilter is a production tool to help sculpt and shape audio when creating, editing, mixing and mastering recordings on Mac and Windows computer workstations. It can be used in applications such as recording studios, sound design, film editing, composing, and more. The software features a large interactive EQ display and allows you to create frequency bands where you need them, then select and edit multiple bands at once. It offers features like Spectrum Grab, full screen mode and EQ match that will help speed up your production workflow.The Pro-Q2 offers features that engineers need, including natural phase modes, mid/side processing, variable stereo placement of EQ bands, an intelligent solo feature, optional auto gain, and a fully customizable spectrum analyzer. In addition you get perfectly tuned knobs, MIDI learn, and smart parameter interpolation for smoother parameter transitions. There is also a help file with interactive help hints. The plug-in is available in VST, VST 3, Audio Units, AAX Native and AudioSuite formats, all in both 64-bit and 32-bit, as well as RTAS in 32-bit only.
- Operates in zero latency mode, linear phase mode with adjustable latency or the unique natural phase mode
- Spectrum Grab allows you to grab and adjust a peak in the real-time spectrum analyzer right away
- Filter shapes such as bell, notch, high/low shelf, high/low cut, band pass, tilt shelf
- Intelligent solo mode allows you to find problem frequencies and hear the effect of a band
- The EQ match feature automatically matches the spectrum of another track via the side-chain input
- Phase Invert option to change polarity
- Mid/side mode where you can EQ the mid and side signals separately
- Optional gain-Q interaction
- Features a built-in spectrum analyzer with pre-EQ, post-EQ and SC modes, adjustable range, speed, resolution, tilt and freeze
- GPU-powered graphics acceleration
- Pro-L 2 Limiter Software Plug-In The Pro-L 2 Limiter Software Plug-In from FabFilter is a major update to the Pro-L Limiter plug-in. It adds four additional limiting algorithms: Modern for general all-purpose limiting, Aggressive for EDM and rock music, Bus specific for drums and individual track limiting, and Safe, which avoids distortion at all costs. The plug-in works for Mac or Windows computers and can be used for mixing and mastering audio applications such as studio recording, post production, and more.Combined with true peak metering and extensive loudness metering, it is compliant with the EBU R128, ITU-R BS.1770-4, and ATSC A/85 standards. Support for surround audio with flexible channel linking makes FabFilter Pro-L 2 much more versatile in multi-channel scenarios, with up to 32x linear phase oversampling. Other features like a DC offset filter, external side chain triggering for stem mastering, and a unity gain option ensure that Pro-L 2 is a solution to any mastering challenge.Furthermore, the real-time level display is offered with several display modes, including an infinite mode that shows all audio for an entire session. Significant gain reduction is highlighted with peak labels to give additional insight into the limiting process. The Pro-L2 interface has been carefully redesigned with an optimized workflow. Finally, the plug-in is available in VST, VST3, Audio Units, AAX Native, and AudioSuite formats, in both 64- and 32-bit, as well as RTAS in 32-bit.
