AkustiX Enhancer
We are proud to announce the immediate release of our AkustiX Enhancer plugin.
AkustiX Enhancer is a collection of enhancement effects designed to complement the mix and mastering process. Combined into an intuitive user interface each effect is based on the latest developments in psycho-acoustic research and offers multiple ways to customize your recordings by using psycho-acoustic processing to shape and enhance your sound.
AkustiX Enhancer features six powerful mixing effects:
Psycho EQ
The Psycho EQ dynamically boosts frequencies to equalize based on the nonlinearities of the human ear. It raises the perceived volume of the mix and makes it sound fat without drastically changing the overall volume. A linear-phase tone control is provided to make your mix sound warm or bright.
Stereo Width:
The multiband stereo widener allows you to enhance the stereo field while keeping the bass and mono compatibility intact.
Ultra Stereo
The Ultra Stereo section adds spaciousness and transparency. A Virtual Surround Encoder creates a sense of being right in the middle of the mix by stretching the sweet spot around the room, as a nice side effect a large part of the room resonances are eliminated. It's an essential tool to upmix from mono to stereo and also drastically enhances existing mixes or old recordings.
Phase Enhance
Phase Enhance adds analog punch and masks nonlinearities of speakers or amplifiers. It creates auditory distance by simulating the natural dispersion and propagation of the sound. Diffuse Cream adds silkiness to pads or vocals.
Multi Exciter
Designed to enhance presence and brightness the exciter with 8192 bands adds vibrancy and depth to your mix by adding additional harmonics. It can reconstruct missing frequencies from analog recordings and low bit-rate encodings.
Smart Filter
The Smart Filter section enhances transparency and adds more detail by using frequency-domain masking.
The easy-to-use noise reduction is an essential tool to clean analog recordings.
