Finally, Trackplug has a new Peak Limiter on its output to help avoid nasty digital clipping. Experimentation is the key, but there are loads of presets on offer for each Trackplug section, to get you into the right ball park. The compressor then only operates when there's sibilant energy, so Trackplug doesn't mistakenly remove any other parts of your track. More exotic possibilities include the twin side-chains of EQ Compare mode, so that you can, for instance, have a band-pass filter detecting sibilance, and a notch filter at the same frequency in the alternate band. There are also new side-chain modes for more specialist compressor duties, such as de-essing using a side-chain EQ.
#WAVE ART POWER SUITE MANUAL#
The comprehensive manual explains the differences well, but there's no substitute for hearing them in action - the new vintage modes offer plenty of analogue colour and warmth, and the ability to chain two compressors with different settings increases the possibilities still further. The Clean Peak and Clean RMS modes from earlier versions offer transparent results, while the Vintage Peak and Vintage RMS modes add odd harmonics when driven hard, and Vintage Warm offers both even and odd harmonics.
#WAVE ART POWER SUITE PLUS#
A new brick-wall filter is now present at the beginning of the signal chain to remove hum, thumps and hiss before further processing, and the EQ section now has 11 options for each band instead of the previous seven, adding variable-Q resonant options to the existing fixed-Q low shelf and high shelf, plus the asymmetrical transition of the vintage 'analogue' low and high shelf.Īnother more fundamental change is that there are now two compressors in series rather than one, each with five modes. However, this time around almost every aspect of it has been improved. Trackplug combines a clean and versatile 10-band EQ with a comprehensive compressor and gate, and is already very popular around the world for its low CPU overhead, as this often lets you run significantly more instances than many competitors.
#WAVE ART POWER SUITE MAC#
It still comprises five plug-ins - Trackplug, Final Plug, Multi Dynamics, Masterverb and the new Panorama, which replaces the previous Wave Surround - and formats supported are VST and RTAS on Mac and PC, plus AU and MAS on the former and Direct X on the latter. Last time I looked at the Power Suite bundle of processors and effects it was up to version 4.06, but Wave Arts don't rest on their laurels, and version 5 adds a significant number of new features to the package, not least a new and more sophisticated graphic look, enhanced preset management and 192kHz support.
The latest incarnation of Wave Arts' plug-in suite is a treat for the eyes and the ears. One of the Suite's five plug-ins: Trackplug combines a clean and versatile 10-band EQ with a comprehensive compressor and gate, and is already very popular around the world for its low CPU overhead.
