The Ultimate Precision Transient Sidechainer
Introducing Laser 2 – a complete rebuild of the legendary sidechaining plugin, designed for producers and mixing engineers who demand ultimate precision and transparency in their mixes. "Why not just use a dynamic EQ or other sidechain plugins?" Because spectral-focused plugins don't show you how your reduction envelope relates to the actual incoming sidechain signal. You're processing blind. And they're not designed for the ultra-fast, transient-perfect response that transparent sidechaining demands.
Features
- Real-Time Waveform Analysis for Sidechain Signal – Visualize incoming transients and create reduction envelopes that perfectly follow transient's exact shape
- Time Domain Precision – True transparent sidechaining through precise time-based control
- Negative Offset – Start reduction before the transient hits, preserving punch while saving valuable headroom
- Ultra-Fast Envelope Shapes – Handle even the fastest transients effortlessly
- New Analyzer Section – Spectral domain visualization shows clashing frequencies in real-time
- Dynamic Multi-Band Processing – Create 1-3 reduction bands dynamically for completely inaudible sidechaining
- Gain Headroom – Achieve clarity, separation and louder mixes while improving your mix headroom by up to 1 dB or more
- Dynamic Band Count – Choose from one to three bands depending on your needs
- Minus Infinity Reduction – Per-band control for complete signal removal when needed
- Mid/Side/Stereo Processing – Independent processing modes per band for maximum flexibility
- Precise Sidechain Filters – Preprocess your sidechain signal for easier triggering and more accurate ducking
- Preset Manager – Save and recall your favorite settings instantly
- Oversampling – Enhanced audio quality for the most demanding projects
- Main Track Routing – Use as a non-sidechain plugin for creative envelope shaping
- Resizable Vector UI
