Are you tired of constantly battling with your mix to try and achieve the right level of loudness without sacrificing the sonic quality or dynamic range?
Look no further than the Sonnox Inflator limiter plugin (really, it’s that good).Â
This unique and powerful plugin allows you to add power and presence to your mix without the pumping of compression.
Not only that, but you can use it on individual channels to bring them forward and add weight, making it perfect to help vocals cut through the mix.
In the test
One of the most impressive things about the Sonnox Inflator plugin is its ability to increase perceived loudness of any material, while still maintaining the sonic quality and dynamic range of the original recording.Â
This is achieved by providing virtual headroom above digital maximum, allowing you to push your mix to the limit without the fear of clipping.
In addition to its main functionality, the Sonnox Inflator plugin also includes direct and band-split modes, giving you even more control over your mix.
This allows you to focus on specific frequency bands and make adjustments where needed. And when driven harder, Inflator delivers tube-like musical warmth, providing the ‘sonic glue’ you need to gel your mix together!
The Sonnox Inflator plugin is also fully 64-bit compliant, ensuring it is compatible with modern operating systems. It is compatible with macOS, including the latest M1 Apple Silicon chip.
It supports a variety of formats, including AAX, AAX-DSP, AU, VST2 & VST3, and is compatible with a wide range of hosts, including Pro Tools, Logic Pro X, Digital Performer, Nuendo, Cubase, Ableton Live, and Studio One.
The Inflator plugin is a unique and powerful tool that can help you take your mix to the next level.
With its ability to add power and presence without sacrificing sonic quality or dynamic range, it’s perfect for any music producer or engineer looking to add some extra oomph to their mix.
