George Massenburg has announced the MDWDRC3 Native Multichannel Dynamic Range Controller plug-in, with extensive controls for AAX Native, VST3 and AU applications.
Massenburg’s recent experience in mixing immersive music tracks has led him to re-engineer the MDWDRC2-Native for multichannel operation. Also working closely with respected motion picture professional mixers, the interface and workflow of the new MDWDRC3 has been ‘forged in fire’.
Building on the earlier MDWDRC2-Native mono/stereo plug-in, Massenburg DesignWorks now offers two versions of the plug-in with upgrades from the original MDWDRC2-Native to MDWDRC3-Native. The MDWDRC2, mono/stereo (compatible with the original MDWDRC2-Native and including new controls found in the MDWDRC3), and MDWDRC3, mono thru all multichannel (up to 9.1.6) formats.
MDWDRC3 includes an innovative approach to allow a user to combine flexible individual Discrete Dynamics control of each channel with the overall programme Loudness Dynamics Processing of all channels combined. This provides flexible, total, unprecedented dynamic range control for any type of programme. Individual detectors on each channel include ‘steered weightings for each channel, extremely useful when fixing immersive stems where single or multiple channels must be handled independently.
MDWDRC3-Native Multichannel full licence is available from the MDW web store at US$599. Upgrades from MDWDRC2-Native are available at US$229 and free upgrades from the original MDWRC2-Native to the new MDWDRC2 version 2, that includes Discrete and Loudness controls as well as Steering controls, are available to existing customers.
