Gain riding can be highly beneficial when mixing live sound, smoothing vocals, or balancing solo instruments. The Lite version of the acclaimed Outlaw plugin is a massive first foray into the gain riding world for you. Outlaw Lite listens to the incoming audio and compensates for volume changes to mimic a real-life audio engineer's mixing desk fader movement. Forget about drawing complex volume automation and let Outlaw Lite do the hard work for you, with smooth gain leveling and a wealth of features.
Mix, Target, Gate & Gain
These 4 main dials give you flexible control over the fundamental parameters of Outlaw Lite, meaning that it's easy to make broad-strokes adjustments to the plugin's performance. Adjust the intensity of the effect with the MIX dial and set the RMS target level with the TARGET dial. Use the GATE control to set a relative level so that the gain-rider ignores softer sounds. The GAIN dial controls the master output and is very useful for setting accurate levels for precise A/B signal comparison.
Visual Feedback
See precisely what Outlaw Lite is doing to the signal at a glance with the bold visual feedback display. The display shows the Peak and RMS volume for both the left and right channels and the amount of gain-riding.
Outlaw Lite is the kind of toolbox plugin that you'll reach for every time you need to create balanced dynamics with a "human touch". Make it the first plugin on your channel for live guitars, vocals, bass, and drums, or anything that needs the smooth touch of a sympathetic virtual engineer.
