Woaaa - I just updated Elephant to the latest version as well as I purchased the new Harmony EQ... I am completely blown away by the Harmony EQ - there was always that cryptic "boost" knob in the old version - which usually sounded great, but was not really controllable - so I usually ended up not using it. Now with the new Dynamic Section as well as the realtime analyzer.. Wow!
In addition I just stepped over the graph feature in Elephant. Great great great!! Ok - watching a waveform has nothing to do with mastering.. But I do love to watch that. I am most sure we all do that.. Before I had to open an exported masterfile in Wavelab, haha - now I can see what is going on :)) Now that is really a cool feature!!
Cheers,
I just got a new reference disc of a project from my mastering engineer that was SRC'd via r8brain (PRO) instead of the other software. The difference in detail and musicality is really, really amazing. Great work.
Thanks!
Essential plugin for all that use x64bit DAW.s.
This plugin lets you compensate latency for those x32 plugins that doesn't get compensate correctly threw the Bitbridge ... example Steinberg Virtual Guitarist 2 x32.
This plugin are FREE and works in both Windows 7 x64bit and Vista x64bit and are essential for any professional Music Producer, Mixing engineer or Songwriter.
Hi.
Just wanted to say thanks, Voxengo. Since I discovered the Elephant, and later the Stereo Touch, I use these plug-ins almost exclusively in their respective fields. Can't imagine living without those anymore. A huge thank you.
I am using the GlissEQ and the VariSaturator on an upcoming jazz-elctronic dance release and it allowed me to selectively bring up very low level tom fill levels in a single track that had both hi hat and toms in it recorded in real time in the studio, so this application alone is amazing.
Thank you for your devotion to absolute quality and analog depth.
What can I say? These plugins are the bees knees! Crunchessor, GlissEQ and VariSaturator make an absolutely killer plugin team; stick them on each of your audio tracks and you have a key which unlocks a whole new sonic world of possibilities.
I have to say, Crunchessor is a FINE compressor, absolutely spectacular on everything from drums to vocals and all in between, with a whole range of different compressor types, from clean to vintage models. I'm not sure if this is emulating a hardware compressor, but it's definitely doing something right!
GlissEQ is one of the most flexible and versatile EQ plugins I have ever worked with. This analyses the audio as you work and gives you an extremely detailed spectrum analysis of your audio, allowing you to make informed decisions on where to boost or cut. If you leave the dynamic control alone, it provides a great EQ experience and will only allow your sound to be made better. Anyone new to EQ should get this, it's superb. Even better, if you have recorded frequencies over 24kHz, like on a vocal take recorded through a top quality mic, GlissEQ lets you observe all frequencies up to 48kHz and beyond, so you can add that airy quality to your vocal tracks.
VariSaturator, in my opinion, is just brilliant. If EQ doesn't quite work, use this instead and you have your solution. Brilliant on drums and guitar tracks.
If you are considering buying some top quality plugins, I would definitely recommend Voxengo time and time again, and I can almost guarantee you will be more than satisfied. If there is one thing I would love to see from Voxengo, it would be the manufacture of yet more stellar processors for audio applications.
Quite simply, Elephant 3 is the best limiter I have ever heard - vastly outperforming my current one in terms of transparency (I'd better not say which one it is - but it costs a lot more than Elephant!)
It has so many excellent features which make it very easy to tailor the perfect sound for my masters. And yet, despite having so many variables, the clear layout, innovative metering graphs and incredibly well designed preset modes make it an absolute joy to use straight away.
The only downside is that now - I'm redoing the last CD I mastered. Not because my client was unhappy, but because I know it will sound SO much better with an Elephant sat on it. Thanks very much to Aleksey and his team for this marvelous piece of software.
Hi !
just chime in to say that I find this plugin truly amazing; I can probably achieve the same result by stacking a few UA plugins - well, quite a few actually - but that is not the point.
The real strength lies in the combination, simplicity and the great presets that give you a good starting point for customizing. Technology should always be like this, especially when you run a tight schedule. Oh, yes, it sounds great too.
Another first is the GUI, easily read on the most cluttered screen in low light and whatever. Makes my other plugs feel a bit toyish, really.
The overall feel of VoxFormer is so solid and pro as it gets. Keep this line, Aleksey !
