BBE Sound Sonic Sweet Optimized v3.1.0 (Win / Mac OS X) | 28.4 MB

Nomad Factory is proud to re-introduce 4 newly optimized plug-ins that bring the legendary BBE Sound into your latest productions. BBE Sonic Sweet: Optimized has been completely rebuilt from the ground up to be compatible with AAX and Pro Tools 11. Additionally, the bundle has been fully tested for the latest operating systems: both Mac OSX 10.10 (Yosemite) and Windows 8. With the same great tone and ease of use you’ve come to expect, BBE Sonic Sweet: Optimized brings the classic sound of BBE into the future.

About Parallel Processing : Traditionally, previous versions of Sonic Maximizer and Harmonic Maximizer could only be used as an insert. But now Sonic Sweet: Optimized allows Sonic Maximizer and Harmonic Maximizer to be used in parallel processing without any phasing.

Because the BBE Sonic Sweet: Optimized was completely rebuilt from the ground up, it is NOT compatible with previous versions of Sonic Sweet. Any sessions with a previous version of Sonic Sweet loaded into it must continue to use the old versions of the plug-ins.

BBE Sonic Sweet Optimized, will not replace your old Sonic Sweet plug-ins, BBE Sonic Sweet Optimized plug-ins will be added to your plug-ins folder as new plug-ins.

BBE SONIC MAXIMIZER - OPTIMIZED -

For years professional musicians and studio engineers have known that the BBE Sound Sonic Maximizer is the best way to get that professional sound and extra sparkle that is so difficult to capture. Now you can access BBE processing technology within the digital domain. The BBE Sonic Maximizer plugin is identical to the physical unit it terms of utility and processing. The BBE advanced sonic processing technology and proprietary algorithms have allowed us to create a plugin that boasts the following features:

Features:

• High quality signal processing algorithms

• Stereo Low Contour control (0dB to 15dB)

• Stereo Process control (0dB to 14dB)

• iSet frequency control (400Hz to 1.4kHz)

• Output Level control variable from -12dB to +12dB

• Bypass control (BBE Process)

• Full Automation for all parameters PC and Mac OS X

• Easy-to-use modern interface.

BBE HARMONIC MAXIMIZER - OPTIMIZED -

The BBE Sound Harmonic Maximizer increases Presence and Clarity, Restore Natural Brightness and adds Deeper and Extended Low Frequencies.

The BBE Sound Harmonic Maximizer can be used in the studio on individual tracks or an entire mix, or live to enhance the sound of a P.A. system. The BBE advanced sonic processing technology and proprietary algorithms have allowed us to create the BBE Harmonic Maximizer plugin that includes the following features:

Features:

• High quality signal processing algorithms

• Lo Tune : adjusts the Bass Enhancement Frequency (40Hz to 150Hz)

• Lo Mix : adjusts the amount of Bass Enhancement and Subharmonics (0 to 10)

• Hi Tune : adjusts the frequency of the High Frequency (554Hz to 5.6kHz)

• Hi Mix : adjusts the amount of High Frequency and Stereo Enhancement (0 to 10)

• Protect: built in signal limiter

• Output Level control variable from -12dB to +12dB

• Full Automation for all parameters PC and Mac OS X

• Easy-to-use modern interface.

BBE LOUDNESS MAXIMIZER - OPTIMIZED -

The BBE Loudness Maximizer is a mixing and mastering multi-band limiter plug-in. Its ultimate transparency allows the Loudness Maximizer to 'dramatically' increase the overall level of your mix without audible pumping effects.

The BBE Loudness Maximizer uses simple controls, turning the Sensitivity up will increase the level of your overall mix without clipping or overloading.

Features:

• High quality signal processing algorithms

• Sensitivity : adjusts the overall louder mix

• Release : release time (0.01 to 1000 ms)

• Enhancer : works like a stereo enhancer to broaden the stereo image

• Output Level control (Ceiling) : sets the maximum output ceiling level

• Protect: built in signal limiter

• Full Automation for all parameters PC and Mac OS X

• Easy-to-use modern interface.

BBE MACH 3 BASS - NEW -

As a new addition to the Sonic Sweet lineup, Mach 3 Bass will take your low end to new sonic depths. Insert this plug-in on any type off bass instrument or signal where you need a big boost on the low end. Mach 3 Bass allows you to easily dial in the frequency you want to accentuate and “bump the bass”.

Features:

• High quality signal processing algorithms

• Mach 3 Bass: adjusts the level of the low end

• Freq Set: allows you to dial in the frequency of Mach 3 Bass

• Response: adjusts the centre-frequency with both the sharp (higher) and broad (lower) bandwidth settings

• Output Level control variable from -12dB to +12dB

• Protect: built in signal limiter

• Full Automation for all parameters PC and Mac OS X

• Easy-to-use modern interface.

The BBE Sound Process Explained:

Loudspeakers have difficulty working with the electronic signals supplied by an amplifier. These difficulties cause such major phase and amplitude distortion that the sound reproduced by speaker differs significantly from the sound produced by the original source. In the past, these problems proved unsolvable and were thus relegated to a position of secondary importance in audio system design. However, phase and amplitude integrity is essential to accurate sound reproduction.

Research shows that the information which the listener translates into the recognizable characteristics of a live performance are intimately tied into complex time and amplitude relationships between the fundamental and harmonic components of a given musical note or sound. These relationships define a sound's “sound”. When these complex relationships pass through a speaker, the proper order is lost. The higher frequencies are delayed. A lower frequency may reach the listener's ear first or perhaps simultaneously with that of a higher frequency. In some cases, the fundamental components may be so time-shifted that they reach the listener's ear ahead of some or all of the harmonic components. This change in the phase and amplitude relationship on the harmonic and fundamental frequencies is technically called “envelope distortion.” The listener perceives this loss of sound integrity in the reproduced sound as "muddy" and “smeared.”In the extreme, it can become difficult to tell the difference between musical instruments, for example, an oboe and a clarinet.

BBE Sound, Inc. conducted extensive studies of numerous speaker systems over a ten year period. With this knowledge, it became possible to identify the characteristics of an ideal speaker and to distill the corrections necessary to return the fundamental and harmonic frequency structures to their correct order. While there are differences among various speaker designs in the magnitude of their correction, the overall pattern of correction needed is remarkably consistent. The BBE Process is so unique that 42 patents have been awarded by the U.S. Patent Office.
