ClipShifter, a versatile wave-shaping audio plugin, operates as a clipping-style limiter, offering extensive user controls for diverse mixing needs. It accommodates tasks from distorting basses and drums to maximizing mix buses and imparting warmth to overall mixes. Users can customize the sonic characteristics, ranging from hard, brick wall-style clipping to softer saturation with compression.
Key Features:
- Dynamic Control: Responds to transient qualities, adjusting clipping thresholds based on audio levels. Version 2.2 introduces Independent Left/Right Threshold Control for dynamic adjustments.
- Sound Customization: Fine-tune clip shape and harmonics, achieving a range from heavy distortion to subtle compression.
- Efficient Usage: Low CPU usage allows for running multiple instances on multiple tracks.
- Metering Options: Standard LVC-Audio metering, including VU-style, PPM-style, and loudness meters, facilitates easy input and output level monitoring.
- Waveform History View: Scalable view with click-and-drag editing of threshold controls for convenient clipping level adjustments based on the incoming signal.
