Analog Obsession MAXBAX

Analog Obsession has revisited the MASBAX plug-in and released a new version named MAXBAX. The passive Baxandall EQ now features an extra mid band, which will make it even more useful than before. It operates in L/R or M/S modes, with separate controls for the two channels. There’s also a stereo link option. Moreover, MAXBAX offers a stepped ±6 dB output level control. Overall, a great update of an already very nice free equalizer plug-in.

MAXBAX is available for macOS and Windows in VST, VST3 and AU formats.

A.O.M. Triple Fader

If there’s ever been a plug-in whose name describes exactly what it does, this is it. Triple Fader by A.O.M. is just what it says it is: three gain faders. But why would you want that? Simple: You can specify a range for each fader, which lets you do highly precise adjustments and automations in your DAW – three times in a row. There’s also a configurable level meter that displays RMS, VU or LUFS values. Sometimes simple things make a whole lot of sense.

Triple Fader is available for Windows 8.1 or higher and macOS 10.12 or higher in VST, VST3, AU and AAX formats.

Another plug-in that says exactly what it does. Nembrini Audio is known for high-quality amp emulations, and here’s a high-precision Chromatic Tuner to complete your rig. Besides a big, colorful display, a mute button and a cent display with an accuracy of ±0.01 cents, the plug-in offers a drop/capo mode that auto-transposes notes up or down by up to an octave. You can also set it to any pitch standard – and it even runs on your phone.

Chromatic Tuner is available for macOS 10.9 or higher and Windows 7 or higher in VST, VST3, AAX and AU formats. The iOS version requires iOS 9.3 or later.
