Soft clippers plugins are all the rage these days for controlling peaky audio and for mastering. Please update the Steinberg SoftClipper plugin with:
- Gain matching and level control. ie. If you push the input into the red (for hard clipping - achieved when harmonics controls are turned off), turning down the gain knob removes the effect. This makes the plugin almost useless for a modern clipping workflow.
- Waveform display.
- Additional algorithms for soft clipping.
- Options for oversampling.
In careful comparison with a popular clipper plugin, SoftClipper really holds it’s own in terms of audio quality. An update would make this plug a great addition to Cubase and Nuendo!
