This high-quality software plug-in offers up to four times linear-phase oversampling, a real-time de-essing display that clearly shows the affected parts of processed audio, and a side-chain input meter that simplifies the selection of an optimal Threshold value. Its real-time spectrum analyzer is built into the HP/LP filter controller, and it supports GPU-powered graphics acceleration for enhanced performance.
