Blue Cat's Dynamics - Compressor, Gate, Limiter, Expander, Waveshaper Plug-In (VST, AU, AAX, VST3)

About Blue Cat's Dynamics

"Blue Cat's Dynamics is a very well-specified compander which, with the exception of multi-band capability, offers just about every form of dynamics processing there is, including simulated VCA and opto compression, true downward expansion, gating and limiting. [...] Its strongest suit, to my mind, is the ability to apply both conventional compression and downward expansion at the same time, which is useful if, for example, you have a recording with a wide dynamic range and a lot of background noise.[...] For the price this is a versatile and powerful Swiss Army Knife of dynamics plug-ins." - Sound On Sound Magazine - May 2008


Blue Cat's Re-Head - Head Response Simulator for Headphones (VST, VST3, AAX and Audio Unit Plug-in)

About Blue Cat's Re-Head

"If you do a lot of recording while wearing headphones, you might want to check it out.

About Blue Cat's AcouFiend

"I found a product that is so off-the-wall, and so fascinating, it really deserved being written about. [...] If you have an experimental bent, or just want to rock with feedback guitar, it’s well worth downloading the free trial to find out what this sucker can do. It’s impressive." - Craig Anderton - [Read full review].

Blue Cat's Analysis Pack - Audio Analysis Tools and Audio to MIDI Plugins Bundle (VST, AU, VST3)

About Blue Cat's Analysis Pack

Blue Cat's Analysis Pack was granted the Innovation and Performance awards by Computer Music Magazine

"As is apparent, this bundle is nothing if not feature-packed. The more analytically-minded will find the amount of information on offer pretty incredible, and the ability to output MIDI and automation data is an excellent, forward-thinking feature that alone would be enough to sell this collection to some - the same goes for the Multi functionality."

"Verdict: the Analysis Pack sports many innovative features that you simply won't find elsewhere, and it actually goes beyond analysis with its clever CC/automation generation features." - 9/10 rating and performance and innovation awards granted by Computer Music Magazine (CM), Feb 2008 - www.computermusic.co.uk


Blue Cat's FreqAnalyst Pro - Real Time Spectrum Analyzer and Audio to MIDI AU, RTAS, DX and VST Plug-in

About Blue Cat's FreqAnalyst Pro

[About 3D View] This looks like a really useful upgrade. Great for analyzing kick vs bass levels.[...] It's pretty awesome, as expected. [...] Was nice being able to zoom in and change the angle. Seeing drum hits in 3D really helps build a mental map of what lies in each bit of the frequency spectrum.

I got a bit lost at one point, with all the zooming and twisting,[...] but then I right clicked it, and it reset, so it's about as perfect as I could've asked for - Alex Mcpherson (novatropic)


Blue Cat's All Plug-Ins Pack - All Our Professional Audio Plugins in a Single Bundle (AU, VST, VST3, RTAS, AAX)

These range from simple freeware utilities and modulation effects to sophisticated mastering tools bristling with unique features.[...] Four of their most innovative plug-ins [...], as far as I know, have no direct equivalent from other manufacturers." - Sound On Sound Magazine - May 2008

About Blue Cat's Late Replies

"Reaching far beyond its central remit as a multitap feedback delay, this epic-scale effect invites your whole plugins folder to the party. [...] Blue Cat have knocked it out of the park [...] Late Replies is their best plugin yet, and is an indisputable must-have!" - Computer Music Magazine, January 2018. 10/10, Editor's Choice.


Blue Cat's MB-5 Dynamix - The All-In-One Multiband Dynamics Processor

About Blue Cat's MB-5 Dynamix

"Excellent!!! (10/10) [...] J'aime beaucoup l'interface très intuitive, simple à appréhender, la qualité sonore. J'apprécie la sélection de la source de side-chain à appliquer sur chaque bande, le copier/coller des réglages d'une bande vers une autre, le grand choix de pentes pour chaque bande (de 6dB à 60dB), l'échelle de la fenêtre graphique (10dB, 20dB et 40dB), les paramètres Threshold/Ratio et Knee indépendants pour le bas et le haut de la courbe de chaque bande, etc... La liste est longue.

Pour conclure, c'est un outil très complet, bien pensé et la qualité sonore est au rendez-vous ! Le rapport qualité/prix me semble excellent.." - Laurent Bergman, producer - full review (French)


Translation: "Excellent!!! (10/10) [...] I really like the very intuitive user interface, easy to understand, the sound quality. I appreciate the selection of side-chain source to be applied to each band, copy and paste settings from one band to another, the wide range of slopes in each band (6dB to 60dB), wide the graphics window (10dB, 20dB and 40dB), the parameters Threshold / Ratio and Knee independent bottom and top of the curve of each band, etc ... The list is long.

As a conlusion, it is a very complete tool, well thought out and the sound quality is there! The price/quality ratio seems excellent.." - full review (Translated)
