Sky
Master limiter with an adjustable amount of character and a simple tilt EQ.
​
When mastering tracks I noticed myself adding the same collection of plugins almost every time, usually with the same settings. There are two points to this plugin:
-
To be able to squeeze the RMS to above reasonable levels without audible distortion or other negative effects.
-
To replace a set of compressors/maximisers/limiters/dohickeys with only a few simple sliders.
​​
I'm sure Sky will not succeed in null tests very well, but neither would the chain of compressors and other processors it is made to replace. Set the character to zero and squeeze... Does it help in making the mix sound good or not?
​
Sky 2.0 introduces new features and improves on the original many aspects. HIGHLY recommended update!
