Voxengo is happy to announce the release of SPAN Plus version 1.22 - an extended real-time “fast Fourier transform” audio spectrum analyzer plug-in for professional music and audio production applications. SPAN Plus is available in AAX, AudioUnit, VST, and VST3 plug-in formats, for macOS and Windows computers.

SPAN Plus is an extended version of the freeware SPAN plug-in: SPAN Plus provides several additional features such as PNG file export, real-time spectrum import/export, static spectrums display, and a “wide” spectrum display.

Changes in this version:

• Removed SSSE3 requirement on Windows.
• Reduced visual tearing on Windows.
• Increased averaged spectrum calculation performance thus reducing time it takes to update the GUI.
• Improved spectrum averaging precision for >1/3oct.
• Static spectrum's name is now assigned/changed on "Take" only if it is currently "unnamed".
• Changed FFT analyzer's minimal averaging time to 5ms (down from 50ms).
• Changed static spectrum shift range to -42..42 dB (up from -32..32).
• Added a small delay to the "Max Crest Factor" estimation, to reduce over-reaction to transients at playback start.
• Fixed a system DPI scaling-related VST3 GUI resizing issue in Cubase, on Windows.

SPAN Plus provides you with a very flexible “mode” system which you can use to setup your spectrum analyzer preferences. You may specify Fourier block size in samples, FFT window overlap percentage, spectrum's visual slope. Beside that you can choose to display secondary spectrum of a desired type (e.g. real-time maximum, all-time maximum). Spectrum can be smoothed out visually for an easier examination.

SPAN Plus supports multi-channel analysis and can be set to display spectrums from two different channels or channel groups at the same time. Spectrum's color can be chosen to taste.

SPAN Plus also features output level metering with adjustable ballistics and integration time, K-metering (including calibration K-metering). SPAN Plus displays level metering statistics, headroom estimation and clipping detection. Correlation metering is available as well.

Voxengo is happy to announce the release of SPAN Plus version 1.21 - an extended real-time “fast Fourier transform” audio spectrum analyzer plug-in for professional music and audio production applications. SPAN Plus is available in AAX, AudioUnit, VST, and VST3 plug-in formats, for macOS and Windows computers.

SPAN Plus is an extended version of the freeware SPAN plug-in: SPAN Plus provides several additional features such as PNG file export, real-time spectrum import/export, static spectrums display, and a “wide” spectrum display.

Changes in this version:

• Made the spectrum also export its "Filled Display" setting, useful when many spectrums are shown at the same time. This is an often-asked-for feature. Note that you may need to revisit the "Filled Display" setting of some individual tracks. This new feature allows you to export some tracks with the "filled" setting enabled while others without it; or to display the main spectrum filled while displaying imported spectrums without filling. This new feature can be disabled via the "Import Spectrum Filling" global setting.
• Made the CSV spectrum saving also save the frequency values and channel names.
• Made the "Static Spectrums" window auto-fill the spectrum names on "Take" and "Load".
• Fixed non-working static spectrum's shifting when the "Offset" (Normalize/Center) display mode is used.
• Added factory ROM presets previously available in SPAN.
• Changed spectrum's "Freq Lo" maximum to 500 Hz (down from 1000 Hz), and "Freq Hi" minimum to 600 (down from 2000 Hz), to permit finer low- and mid-frequency range selections.
• Added the "Spectrum, meter border" palette modifier, visual features. Updated palettes. The "Flat Panels" global settings is now a part of color scheme's visual features.
• Made a small speed-up of GUI loading and drawing.
• Fixed an issue with popup-menus not functioning in Logic Pro on Apple M1 native.
• Implemented "Portable Setups" support (portable settings and authorization storage), read more in the Primary User Guide.

Note that this and all further updates require a processor with SSSE3 support (generally, any Intel processor released since 2006, and any AMD processor released since 2011); all Intel Macs are compatible (Apple Silicon Macs have NEON instead).

SPAN Plus provides you with a very flexible “mode” system which you can use to setup your spectrum analyzer preferences.

We are happy to inform you that Voxengo Voxformer version 2.21 update is now available for download. Voxengo Voxformer is a multi-functional vocal channel strip plugin for professional audio production applications, available in AAX, AudioUnit, VST, and VST3 plug-in formats, for macOS and Windows computers.

Version 2.21 includes the following changes:

• Improved pre-defined "De-esser" presets; this change is backwards-compatible, sound-wise.
• Added the "Spectrum, meter border" palette modifier. Updated palettes.
• Made a small speed-up of GUI loading and drawing.
• Fixed an issue with popup-menus not functioning in Logic Pro on Apple M1 native.
• Implemented "Portable Setups" support (portable settings and authorization storage), read more in the Primary User Guide.

The coolest feature of Voxformer is its one-knob vocal compressor. Using only a single knob, you can get a tight, open and definitive professional vocal sound with an excellent articulation in no time. You do not have to worry about common ratio and make-up gain controls since they are automatically selected by the advanced compression algorithm while attack and release parameters are stored in a mode preset. Moreover, Voxformer features two compressors of this type, allowing you to apply either a two-band or a two-stage (serial) vocal compression.

Voxformer also features the de-esser with selectable center frequency and threshold. Multi-band noise gate is available, which, in a manner similar to the compressor, was designed to bring ease of tuning while providing excellent sonic results. For those who like a saturated vocal sound, Voxformer implements a special module which applies a smooth saturation. Another useful feature Voxformer has to offer is the presence boosting module, which you can use to add some shine and space to the vocals.

Voxformer features:

• Two built-in vocal compressors
• Two-band compressor operation
• Asymmetric compression
• 5-band parametric equalizer
• Real-time FFT spectrum analyzer
• Noise gate (de-breath) module
• De-esser module
• Presence boosting module

Voxengo is happy to release TEOTE version 1.12, an automatic spectral balancer plugin for professional music production applications, available in AAX, AudioUnit, VST, and VST3 plugin formats, for macOS and Windows computers. TEOTE was designed to be a very useful tool for both mixing and mastering. It automatically performs such tasks like gentle resonances taming, de-essing, tilt equalizing, usually performed during mixing and mastering. In mixing, TEOTE sounds good on pretty much any material.

The list of changes in this version:

• Fixed an issue with the "Alt" key not working on the "OLE Roll-off" slider.
• Made minor visual adjustments.
• Added the "Spectrum, meter border" palette modifier. Updated palettes.
• Made a small speed-up of GUI loading and drawing.
• Fixed an issue with popup-menus not functioning in Logic Pro on Apple M1 native.
• Implemented "Portable Setups" support (portable settings and authorization storage), read more in the Primary User Guide.

While by definition TEOTE is a dynamic equalizer, its technology is solely based on multi-band dynamics processing. This allows TEOTE to have only minor phase issues, and to produce a subtle transient-emphasis effect associated with dynamics processing. TEOTE tries to make the program material follow the specified spectral profile, tuned to the contemporary mastering standards by default. It can be said that TEOTE “straightens” the frequency response, making further adjustments a lot easier; it removes a lot of repeating work.

“TEOTE” is an acronym for “That’s Easier On The Ear”. TEOTE is a serious contender in helping bring your music production to the next level!

TEOTE features:

• Automatic spectral balancing
• Selectable processing band count
• Unlinked stereo processing
• Multi-band gain adjustments meter
• Stereo and multi-channel processing
• Internal channel routing
• Channel grouping
• Up to 8x oversampling
• 64-bit floating point processing
• Preset manager
• Undo/redo history
• A/B comparisons
• Contextual hint messages
• All sample rates support
• Zero processing latency

Voxengo is pleased to release TEQ-421, freeware equalizer plugin for professional music production applications, available in AAX, AudioUnit, VST, and VST3 plug-in formats, for macOS and Windows computers.

TEQ-421 is freeware equalizer plug-in for professional music production applications. This equalizer features only three bands (Triple EQ), finely tuned to deliver good results in many cases, thus being extremely easy to use. Beside this, the plug-in features internal non-parametric harmonic coloration modules (derived from HarmoniEQ plug-in) that produce a smooth saturation and a “presence” effect.

The frequencies of the bands were carefully selected and are not adjustable. These frequencies target specific frequencies that affect sound’s perception the most. The best use-case for this plug-in is equalization of unprocessed acoustical recordings that usually lack in modern balance of low, mid, and high frequencies.

The plug-in is equally useful on individual tracks, groups, and master bus. It was designed by tuning to a set of various sound sources, including vocals, acoustic guitars, drums, basses, and full mixes.

Features:

• Easy-to-use design
• Smooth harmonic coloration
• 64-bit floating point processing
• Preset manager
• Undo/redo history
• A/B comparisons
• Contextual hint messages
• All sample rates support
• Zero processing latency
• Retina and HighDPI support
