Freqport has released FreqLift, a plugin that combines multiband upward and downward dynamics, FreqTube saturation and oversampled clipping. It works entirely in software, with optional FreqTube FT1 hardware integration for real analog tube saturation.
FreqLift splits the signal into independently processed low and high bands using a linear-phase crossover. Its upward dynamics bring quieter detail, ambience and sustain forward, while downward dynamics provide additional control over the signal.
The saturation stage uses circuit-modeled FreqTube processing in Digital EMU mode. Owners of compatible FreqTube FT1 hardware can switch the saturation and harmonics stage to the unit’s analog tube circuitry from within the plugin.
Features include:
- Oversampled clipping with soft and hard modes for peak control and more aggressive processing.
- Simple and Advanced modes, with detailed dynamics controls available in Advanced mode.
- Wet/dry mix for blending processed and original audio.
Freqport has also introduced the Tube Collection, which pairs FreqLift with its FreqTube FT1-EMU tube emulation plugin. Both plugins work in software and support optional FT1 hardware processing.
