Voxengo is pleased to introduce the next major version of
plug-in called Soniformer. This plug-in is an innovative
mastering tool for DAWs (Digital Audio Workstations) that
allows the user to form and reform the sonic structure of any
sound material.

The main idea behind Soniformer is a spectral balance. A
perfectly balanced mix can be seen on a spectrum analyzer as a
smooth spectral curve with minimal number of peaks and
notches. There can be some deviations from this rule, but
generally it always applies. Soniformer uses compression to
adjust the spectral balance of any sound material being
processed in a way that its spectral curve fulfills the
aforementioned rule. Thus, Soniformer could also be called a
spectral compressor.

Every parameter of Soniformer is defined by means of a graphic
envelope which is freely-modifiable and which may contain up
to 32 control points.

Soniformer implements both compression and expansion, which
allows a variety of different sound structures to be created,
including classical tape compression, unobtrusive bass
expansion, and general mix compression. And it all sounds
pristine! One could say that Soniformer brings a classical
warm analog compression to a digital workstation. This is
true, because even at very subtle compression settings,
Soniformer brings a strong feel of a professionally balanced
mix. In fact, Soniformer allows the user to perform
professional sounding mastering in a budget environment.
Spectral balance is almost a universal thing, and every
mastering engineer has to master it, while Soniformer brings
it the easy way. Soniformer's adjustments of the spectral
balance actually reveal details of the mix being processed.
