Blue Cats Gain Suite 2.11

Blue Cats Gain Suite 2.11 offers a series of gain utilities which let you control the volume of one or several audio tracks in real time. The interest of these plug-ins resides in their particular features:

First, their automation and advanced MIDI control capabilities (the response curve of the MIDI controllers can be fully customized). Used together with one of our analysis tools or a MIDI controller, these plug-ins let you remotely control and automate the gain of each channel of the audio signal.

Another interesting and exclusive feature is the ability to link several instances of the same plug-in: thanks to the unique data sharing technology, you can control the gain of several tracks at the same time, with advanced response curve capabilities. The plug-in bundle contains a stereo and a mid/side version for independent control of the left and right or mid and side channels. It can be very useful for stereo widening/narrowing.

Additional information about stereo widening with mid/side processing can be found in this paper. Last but not least, the skinning capabilities of these plug-ins allow you to customize the way you interact with them.

Major Features:

1. Mono, stereo and mid/side gain.
2. Link several instances of the same plugin and control several plugins from a single user interface with advanced link capabilities.
3. Integrated window opacity support (make the user interface of the plugin transparent).

Enhancements: Mac VST update: fixed incompatibility issues with Cubase 5 on Mac.
