A single-knob master bus sweetener. Free Release uses dynamics, waveshaping and early reflections to gently make your music sound clearer and more up-front. The effect is a conjunction of four other plugins from Reflex Acoustics: Proximity Encoder, PlugMaster, AutomaticDynamic and the Reflex Limiter—all on or near their default settings. If you like the sound of Free Release and you want more control, check out these other devices. This is a CPU-intensive plugin—but because it's loudness-matched and largely EQ-neutral, you can deactivate it when not needed (using the controls in your DAW) without disrupting your gain-staging or sonic balance. How to use Set the Free Release dial to where it best complements the groove of your material Click the display for instant A/B test (bypass mode continues to use CPU in order to keep the plugin calibrated to the incoming signal) Technical notes Available in VST3, AAX & AU formats for Windows and MacOS Requires a compatible Digital Audio Workstation or other plugin host 37-40ms latency, depending on project sample rate
