preFIX by Variety Of Sound.
The wait is over! Variety Of Sound has released preFIX, a freeware audio alignment tool in VST plugin format for Windows. The plugin is now available for download on the VOS downloads page.
The upcoming preFIX audio plug-in was originally designed to meet the recording engineers needs and is all about audio alignment tasks: fix all that stuff that can’t be fixed outside the box (anymore) and do that fast and with highest quality right before the mixing starts itself.
Though, preFIX is not only tailored to the recording engineers environment but delivers a truly great performance when shaping and lifting poor sample sources, sculpt electronic softsynth instruments or just by dialing in that super tight drum bus sensation as well.
Alone the carefully designed gate/expander section is something the electronic music producer will gratefully embrace and pristine audio path filtering is obtained from an analog original model whilst oversampling is used to assure its highest audio quality. And again, an outstanding UI concept and artwork was contributed by Patrick.
The full feature list of preFIX has been previously covered in this article. In short, Bootsie’s latest VST plugin features a sidechainable gate, tilt EQ, HP and LP filters, and phase alignment.
The official preFIX KVR Forum thread started by the developer is available here.
Ok that’s it, news posted, download finished, I’m off to see what this little tool can do. :]
