Mastering clipper and saturation plugins Modern loudness.
Classic clarity.
- MC-1 is a clean mastering clipper. It gets a track to modern loudness and keeps its depth, punch and air.
- IS-1 is a multiband transformer saturator. It adds the weight and glue of driven iron, band by band.
- Trim is a free, precise gain utility that also level-matches an outboard chain in one click.
MC-1 uses oversampled, anti-aliased clipping and saturation with true-peak limiting, in 64-bit double precision.
Plugins
MC-1
Loud and polished, without the harsh, flattened sound of pushing a master too far.
IS-1
The weight and glue of driven transformer iron, placed exactly where a mix wants it. Use one band or up to eight.
Trim
Precise gain, stereo balance metering, and a one-click level match for your outboard chain.
FreeWhy MC-1
Loud without the grit
Push a track up to modern levels while the top end stays smooth and the low end stays solid.
Simple to start, deep when you want it
Put it on your master and bring up Clip. That gets you most of the way, and the rest is there when a track needs more.
Trusted where it counts
A true-peak ceiling that holds, bounces that come out the same every time, and an A/B that stays honest.
