de la Mancha Releases ClipStar Plug-In For Windows
The nutters at de la Mancha have released ClipStar, a soft clipper effect plug-in for Windows. ClipStar is designed to prevent peaks in a subtler way than typical hard clipping, increase loudness and add saturation.
Where ClipStar differs from other clippers is that it can leave the low frequencies untouched, where distortion is more evident, and allow a greater boost in gain without noticeably degrading the signal. You can use ClipStar for peak protection, for loudness gain or for sympathetic distortion.
Features:
» Vintage style soft clipper with low frequency bypass and comprehensive metering
» In gain & Out gain adjustable to +/- 30 dB
» Soft clip limit can be set from 0 to -30 dB
» Low frequency bypass cut off from 0 to 1000 Hz
» Low frequency gain can be adjusted from +/- 30 dB
» Subtle colouring from a home-made blend of harmonics, saturation and noise
» Optional hard limiting on final output
» Metering covers stereo input, output and gain reduction. All meters show actual and peak levels
» Adjustable peak meter hold time
» Double-click knob resets
» Developed with SE 1.1
de la Mancha’s ClipStar costs $15 bucks and is available now as a VST plug-in for Windows. More information on de la Mancha ClipStar.
