In WaveLab there is no limitation to the use of VST plug-ins. They can be used wherever plug-ins can be inserted.
Brickwall Limiter ensures that the output level never exceeds a set limit.
Compressor reduces the dynamic range of the audio, making softer sounds louder or louder sounds softer, or both.
DeEsser is a special type of compressor that reduces excessive sibilance, primarily for vocal recordings.
EnvelopeShaper can be used to attenuate or boost the gain of the attack and release phase of audio material.
Expander reduces the output level in relation to the input level for signals below the set threshold. This is useful if you want to enhance the dynamic range or reduce the noise in quiet passages.
Gating, or noise gating, silences audio signals below a set threshold. As soon as the signal level exceeds the threshold, the gate opens to let the signal through.
Limiter is designed to ensure that the output level never exceeds a set output level, to avoid clipping in following devices.
Maximizer raises the loudness of audio material without the risk of clipping. The plug-in provides two modes, Classic and Modern, that offer different algorithms and parameters.
This versatile compressor with integrated tube-simulation allows you to achieve smooth and warm compression effects. The VU meter shows the amount of gain reduction. Tube Compressor features an internal side-chain section that lets you filter the trigger signal.
VSTDynamics is an advanced dynamics processor. It combines three separate effects: Gate, Compressor, and Limiter, covering a variety of dynamic processing functions.
