Voxengo Peakbuster 400pxVoxengo is happy to release Peakbuster version 1.4, an attack-phase boosting and harmonic enhancement plugin for professional music and sound production applications, available in AAX, AudioUnit, VST, and VST3 plugin formats, for macOS and Windows computers.

Version 1.4 features a redesigned user interface.

The amount of effect can be chosen independently for the lower and higher frequency ranges: this permits use of Peakbuster on a variety of program material, both full mixes and individual tracks.

Additionally, due to the nature of the algorithm’s design, Peakbuster applies a unique harmonic coloration or enhancement: so, even if the gain adjustment meter shows only a minimal transient boosting amount at a given time, the plug-in still transforms the sound being processed in a way that to some engineers may sound “on a completely another level”; we at Voxengo would call it “beyond tube warmness”.

Peakbuster features:

  • Automatic transient boosting
  • Selectable processing band count
  • Stereo processing
  • Up to 8x oversampling
  • 64-bit floating point processing
  • Preset manager
  • Undo/redo history
  • A/B comparisons
  • Contextual hint messages
  • All sample rates support
  • Zero processing latency

Demo version of Peakbuster can be downloaded freely at the Voxengo web site: https://www.voxengo.com/product/peakbuster/?eref=ml.
