Blue Cat DP Meter Pro is a customisable audio level metering tool which combines streamlined workflow with advanced features for professional studios. Ideal for mastering applications or post-production work, the DP Meter Pro lets you monitor the peak, RMS and crest factor levels of your audio. Offering five different scaling methods including the popular K-System scaling made popular by Bob Katz alongside the ability to create your own, DP Meter Pro puts you in charge of your levels to ensure broadcast or streaming regulations are met.
Historic metering information is saved in the Histograms, allowing you to have precise monitoring of the dynamic range of your track over time. Highlighting the evolution of your envelope over time, DP Meter Pro displays everything in a colour-coded and well-labelled interface to make it easy to follow. Real-time information can be saved and printed into your host software as automation curves to recall exact changes in your levels in future projects and sessions.
Regardless of what audio file you are monitoring, DP Meter Pro offers mid/side and stereo modes, allowing you to check levels of only the side channels or both left and right independently. Advanced side-chaining controls and MIDI functionality allows you to monitor your levels against an external trigger, controlling everything via MIDI CC messages. With MIDI CC, the possibilities are endless, from voice-over and ducking to side chain compression, multiple tracks monitoring or dynamic stereo enhancement. It is also possible to control external MIDI hardware (such as synths, MIDI effects), video effects or lighting systems with an audio signal.
Blue Cat Dynamics is a fully-featured all-in-one dynamics processing solution. Multi-functional, Dynamics can be used as a compressor, limiter, gate, expander and waveshaper in one plug-in. Powered by a two-threshold system, you can freely tweak the response of the plug-in to alter the behaviour of the dynamics processing to suit the needs of your audio. Employing multiple filters to control the target frequencies for dynamics processing, you can more accurately control the envelopes of instruments with specific bandwidth from bass guitar to bass drum.
Multiple styles of compression are available from peak and RMS with both VCA and Opto-style compressors available, offering a wider range of tonality and character in your dynamics processing. This coupled with an interface that delivers a variety of monitoring solutions to highlight the envelope and transient response and gain reduction ensures that you are in full control over your dynamics processing for any track or full mix in your project. Compatible with mid/side and channel linking functionality ensures that the Blue Cat Dynamics will quickly become your go-to in the studio whereas high-quality dynamics processing is required.
Blue Cat FreqAnalyst Pro is a single channel frequency analyzer plug-in. Powered by an extremely smooth interpolation algorithm, FreqAnalyst Pro displays your frequency with immense accuracy and resolution to monitor your audio in extreme detail. Encompassing two vital monitoring modes including a spectrum and spectrogram analyzer with a solid or wireframe 2D and 3D waterfall display, you have complete control over how you monitor your track. Three modes are offered for each channel including instant, peak or average response can all be displayed on the same graph and can be saved in any of the four memory slots to make quick comparison between several tracks.
Providing you with output parameters to control other effects in real-time, FreqAnalyst Pro lets you generate envelopes and MIDI messages into your DAW. With the transformation parameters (offset, amount and reverse), you can customize the generation of these parameters and monitor the modifications on the value graphs. Thanks to this unique functionality, you can now control any effect with the pitch of the audio signal: imagine a filter on an instrument controlled by the pitch of another instrument, compression depending on the pitch of the signal and much more.
The Blue Cat LinyEQ is an eight-band linear-phase EQ plug-in. Optimised for precise frequency adjustments, LinyEQ linear-phase design is perfect for mastering solutions where broad EQ changes need to be made without introducing phase interactions between frequencies, particularly in the low-end. Traditional linear-phase EQs introduce latency as the audio file is pre-rendered through the plug-in for analysis whereas LinyEQ introduces zero latency through the optimised linear-phase kernel, processing the signal in under three milliseconds.
Offering a huge range of gain per band of +/-40dB and an array of filtering shapes, LinyEQ is an extremely versatile plug-in capable of sculpting and shaping your tone in virtually any way. Independent left and right channels and mid/side mode offers expanded functionality for processing stereo sources individually. Extremely customisable with a premium interface with a plethora of spectrum analysis options, LinyEQ is the ideal solution wherever precise, phase-free EQ is needed.
Blue Cat MB-5 Dynamix is an all-in-one, five-band dynamics processor. Functioning as a multi-band compressor, limiter, gate, expander, waveshaper or any combination of all modes simultaneously, the MB-5 Dynamix is the only processor you need to tame transients, add punch and reduce unwanted peaking in your signal. The multi-band functionality of MB-5 ensures that you can treat each band of your signal independently, applying different processing to ensure the best results for your project. Whether that's applying less compression on the low-end of a kick drum to let the sustain bloom or clamping down the highs of a rock vocalist to maintain a consistent signal, MB-5 Dynamix will get you to your destination.
Boasting a myriad of visual feedback systems, you will be able to monitor the full range of parameters within your signal. View everything from the in/out levels, dynamic range, compression ratio and much more. All housed within a streamlined interface which will help you to quickly achieve the sound you're after. In addition, the powerful MIDI and automation capabilities connect perfectly to your DAW, enabling side-chain compression with even more advanced signal-dependent effects.
