This will be one of the first things I demo when back from vacation. With more and more lo budget recordings coming in for mix, sometimes I feel I need to find all the sweetening manipulation possible, and this seems to do just the right thing. plugin-alliance.com/en/plugins/detail/bx_refinement.htmlBtw, liked the drum-/mix examples better than the electronic stuff. |

Perhaps you could do more or less the same with a multiband compressor, a saturation device and a sweet eq, but after playing with this for an hour I decided to go for it, while the sale in on. The coolest feature imo is to let it be dependent on the dynamics just like a compressor. What I liked the least was the presence function. Even prefer the old Bombfactory Pultec emulation.

Anyway, I went back to a few mixes I've done the recent year and put it on some sources (not whole mixes) that I remembered being not so well recorded. Not a big game changer, but made the job fast and easy, and even kind of fun...which otherwise never is what I fel about poorly recorded material... |

Ton's of stuff in that one. |

I'm usually between 100hz and 150hz... |

I've been using this plug for subtle stereowidening and even more subtle M/S eq'ing. But I'll check that function tonight! |

It makes everything below the set frequency mono...as I guess you'll find out!LOL For some strange reason I'm finding my mixes sound a bit wider when everything below 100hz is in mono... |

Now I recall I shut that off early on and never thought about it again. I'm sure it can be cool on some stuff though. Thx for the reminder! |
