I put this together during the winter when my right ear was fucked up and couldn't do music... it was an old dream of mine to put together something like Elemental Audio's Neodynium (company got sold to Roger Nichols, plugin got rebranded, price increased, company went bust, etc...) but make it better, more flexible and easier to use (with a better GUI maybe).

Well, it might only be me who will use this afterall (I'm trying to be honest with myself: this might not be the most user friendly plugin ever made ), but at least it does what I want, how I want it.

You can get it from here . PC/VST only for this time.

Courvoisier is a single-band universal dynamics processor with adaptive attack and release algorithms optimized for complex program material (mixes and submixes). Courvoisier uses free-form curves drawn over the histogram of incoming audio material (as opposed to traditional ratio and threshold parameters) to determine the transfer function of the processing.

Courvoisier is available for free.

Features:

- Histogram representation (sliding-window statistics)
of incoming program material and the resulting gain change
on which the transfer function can be drawn

- Free-form upward and downward compression and/or expansion

- Spline interpolated control curves

- All performance-critical code optimized in assembly
(utilizing SSE2 flow instructions)

- Two different adaptive attack algorithms (program dependent)

- Adaptive release algorithm (program dependent, scalable)

- Additional user defined adaptive release behavior

- Side chain filtering (low and high pass)

- MS operation
(with support for different transfer curves for Mid and Side channels)

- Stereo operation (adjustable stereo link)

- Dry mix option for parallel processing

- Peak, RMS and Hybrid level detection

- Very low harmonic distortion
(THD during normal operation is below -105 dB FS)

- Lookahead processing for minimizing distortion
with extremely fast attack settings

- Complex mode (oversampling with a twist)

Oi! can I just slap this across the main outs of cubase and get it to act out like it's dynamics plug ins ?

This is a legitimate question by the way .

;p

jf

p.sd. i am two sheets to the wind you sea (this last one was for sitar, har har har. )

p.s., ii.: sexy name I say...(the plug in that is) it's like flimsy nylon...

Yes, that is the main purpose of this plugin. Not that you can't put it on individual tracks, it's a matter
of taste and experimentation. I prefer to use it on the maser buss.

be advised this is not a brickwall limiter (your master will clip if you boost levels), so you should
follow up this plugin with something like:
