Model: Final Mix
A real-time stereo mastering processor plug-in for the
d8b
Acuma
Labs’ Final Mix enables you to master your sessions within
the D8B, printing directly to hard disk or DAT without having to
rely on expensive mastering houses or outboard gear. Specifically
designed for use with the Mackie Universal Effects (UFX) card,
Final Mix can dramatically elevate the quality of your mixes and
help you to create your own professional masters. With an extensive
palette of sonic tools, including 3-band dynamics processing,
6-band (pre and post) parametric EQs, adjustable cross over points
and individual band key filtering, Final Mix lets you zero in on
exact frequencies to adjust or emphasize crucial elements of your
mix.
Final Mix employs three individual dynamics processors (low, mid
and high) with noise gating and soft clip limiting to provide ultra
smooth compression or expansion. Each dynamics band features
individual threshold, attack and release times. A graphical contour
edit screen for each band allows you to easily set a desired ratio
and to create your own hard knee or soft knee, or even draw in an
expander curve. Each dynamics band features its own key filter that
allows you to emphasize or de-emphasize a portion of the signal
within the band. The Soft Clip feature adds a smooth, analog-style
clip response when your signal gets close to overload. Other
features such as Noise Gate, Band Linking and more ensure that
Final Mix will be an integral part of your mixes from here
out.
