Audio Plugin Player v1.3.1 MAC HCiSO 22 September 2019 20 MB::: AU VST MAS::: Audio Plugin Player is a lightweight VST and AU instrument plug-in host for Mac OS X that allows you to play these instruments using either your mouse, computer keyboard, or MIDI device (both hardware and software MIDI devices supported). Question: Q: Any good, cheap AU or VST hosts for Mac? In my quest for a good portable system, I'm going to run Logic on my MacBook Pro, but also run my VST/AU Spectrasonics & NI plugs on my old Powerbook G4 at the same time, using the powerbook as a host module.

This plug-in suite is a series of gain utilities which let you control the volume of one or several audio tracks simultaneously, in real time.

Price:Freeware
Also in Bundle: Free Pack

Detailed Description

The interest of these plug-ins resides in their particular features:

First, they include advanced automation MIDI control capabilities (all response curves 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, wherever they reside in the signal path.

Another interesting and exclusive feature is the ability to link several instances of the same plug-in: thanks to our unique data sharing technology, you can control the gain of several tracks at the same time with a single slider.

The package provides a single channel (mono or stereo) as well as a dual channel version with mid/side capabilities for independent control of the left and right or mid and side channels. It can be very useful for stereo widening/narrowing your stereo tracks.

Note: Additional information about stereo widening with mid/side processing can be found in our M/S processing paper.

User Comments & Reviews

Simple Vst Host For Mac Catalina

The Blue Cat Gain Suite is another staple I use heavily simple gain control and M/S level manipulation. This group of plugins provide very basic functions, but have the same level of precise control and configurability that is a hallmark of other Blue Cat Audio plugins. I literally do not think of any other plugins when these particular jobs need fixing. Simplicity can be quite powerful at times. -
