Alchemist is the ultimate dynamic processing tool providing full control over the processing. For simple compression tasks, more advanced de-expansion, and emulating classic analog compression, to recovering transients from an overly compressed mix, all the way to heavy parallel multi-band compression with up to 5 bands.
Alchemists five bands are divided using carefully tuned state-of-the-art IIR (Infinite Impulse Response) crossovers with selectable slopes (from 18 dB per octave to 54 dB per octave) and variable corner frequencies.
In addition to the common controls on a dynamics processor; ratio, attack, release, Alchemist offers control over the fundamental characteristics of the dynamics processing on each band, all in order to provide full control over the processing even in the most demanding situations.
