Mastering The Mix ANIMATE

Fine tune the perfect flavor of punch and movement.

What it is:
A dynamic application for anyone interested in releasing high quality music.

How we use it:
Dial in a pristinely clean sounding upward expansion, giving audio a more dynamic range in a transparent way.

Why it's cool:
Simply put, ANIMATE injects life in your mix. ANIMATE
Inject life into your mixes in a precise, versatile and colorful way. With four different movement modes, each with individual frequency assignments and mid/side functionality, you’ll get your music jumping out of the speakers precisely how you want.

EXPAND
Expand mode allows you to dial in a pristinely clean sounding upward expansion. This increases the volume of signals over the threshold, giving your audio more dynamic range in a transparent way.

PUNCH
Punch mode enhances the transients of your audio to help them bite through the mix. Whether you want to subtly accentuate the high-frequency transients in the mid-channel of your master or bring out serious smack on an individual channel, Punch can handle the task.

IGNITE
Ignite mode allows you to dial in rich harmonic distortion in a dynamic way based on the input signal. Ignite can increase the perceived loudness, power and presence of a channel without the pumping effects of a compressor.

GROW
Grow mode lets you increase the width of the selected frequencies using a psychoacoustic precedence effect. Grow can be applied in a dynamic way meaning only the signal surpassing the threshold is widened. This along with the frequency selection gives you a new realm of movement to inject into your music.
