Description : Maxhead is a powerful peak limiter plugin designed for complete control of audio volume. It offers a wide range of dynamics processing, from smooth attenuation to strong distortion. It is equipped with four limiting algorithms that provide transparent and detailed dynamics shaping. Its “analog” saturator adds warmth and depth to the sound, as well as a slight distortion typical of hardware limiters.
Introducing MaxHead: A Powerful System with Maximum Peak Shaving
MaxHead is the pinnacle of peak limiting plugins, providing unprecedented control over audio volume and exceptional versatility.
This remarkable VST/AU/AAX plugin is fully compatible with MacOS and Windows, making it a versatile and indispensable tool for music producers, sound engineers and audio enthusiasts.
Unlock the full potential of your audio with MaxHead, a plugin that lets you process your audio in ways you never thought possible. Whether you want to tone down your sound or push the boundaries of heavy distortion, MaxHead provides a wide range of dynamic processing options, allowing you to fine-tune your sound creatively.
Key Features :
✓ Four Different Limiter Algorithms: MaxHead boasts four different limiting algorithms that provide transparent and detailed dynamics processing. Whether you want a clean and subtle sound or a more aggressive and harsh character, MaxHead has you covered.
✓ Analog Saturator: Increase the warmth and depth of your sound with the plugin’s analog saturator. This feature adds a bit of harmonic richness reminiscent of classic hardware limiters, giving your sound that coveted analog warmth.
MaxHead’s primary function is to act as a peak limiter, ensuring that audio signals stay within specified limits and preventing unwanted clipping and distortion. However, its functions don’t end there: MaxHead is also a powerful maximizer, allowing you to increase output volume and subtly introduce controlled clipping to enhance the brightness and impact of impactful transients.
Let’s take a look at the key features that make MaxHead an indispensable tool in your audio toolbox:
✓ Headroom: Adjust the headroom in decibels (dB), creating a safe distance between your audio signal and the threshold or limit. This ensures that your audio remains clean and free of distortion.
✓ Limit: Set the threshold in dB, specifying the level that your input signal should not exceed. MaxHead ensures that your audio stays within these limits, delivering clean, professional sound.
✓ Attack Time: Adjust the limiter’s attack time to determine how quickly MaxHead reacts to peaks in your audio, allowing you to precisely control the dynamics.
✓ Release Time: Adjust the limiter’s release time to determine how quickly MaxHead recovers from attenuation, maintaining the desired volume level and natural dynamics of your audio.
✓ Limiter Algorithms: MaxHead offers a choice of four different limiter algorithms, each with unique sonic characteristics, allowing you to achieve the exact sound you’re going for.
✓ Analog-style Saturator: Give your sound the nostalgic warmth and character of analog gear with MaxHead’s built-in saturator. This module adds the richness and harmonics found in classic hardware limiters, taking your sound to new heights.
