ThrillseekerXTC free exciter | enhancer by Variety Of Sound

ThrillseekerXTC is a free exciter and enhancer VST plugin developed by Variety Of Sound. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

Bringing mojo back – Thrillseeker XTC is a contemporary exciter build around a true parallel analog style equalizer design. ThrillseekerXTC is all about adding weight, vibe and attitude back to the sound. It delivers all the character of an analog signal path and provides what digital processing usually is hard pushed to, including a rich low-end experience and that vibrant ‘expensive’ top-end.

At a glance:

  • A unique take on a parallel analog equalizer design which includes full control about sonic color and mojo.
  • Transient based processing to revive energy and vibe.
  • Made for musicians and engineers to pleasingly enhance audio during the mixing or mastering stage.

Specification:

  • Three parallel coupled equalizers containing three stateful saturators.
  • Each based on a sophisticated non-linear and frequency dependent algorithm with memory.
  • Pre-selected frequency ranges.
    • LOW band: 70-450Hz.
    • MID band: 0.8-5kHz.
    • AIR band: 3.2-18kHz.
  • Two flavors included with different internal gain-staging.
    • Black version to mix at rather conservative levels around -18dB RMS.
    • Blue version to mix towards hotter target levels.
  • Additional analog signal path idiosyncrasies modelled.
  • Classic VU style metering as well as loudness unit measurements based on ITU-R BS.1770.
  • Mix control for dry/wet mixing and output level control.
  • Win32 / VST compatible plug-in with SSE2 assembler optimized signal path.
  • Tested and known to work in many VST hosts as well as running jbridge wrapped in 64bit hosts.

THD

THD free saturation | exciter | enhancer by digitalfishphones

THD is a free saturation and exciter and enhancer VST plugin developed by digitalfishphones. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

This is no typical high-gain distortion device, nor a ‘decimator’ or bit crusher but it is some sort of saturator. It is intended for a mixer’s insert path to act as a preamp stage. It smoothes out the transients, gives more overall gain and warms a bit.

On good days, it behaves similar to a tube input stage, adds some gentle warmth to the input signal, brings up the overall level and just sounds as if it’s consisting of analog circuits. On bad days it creates muddiness, sounds confusing, crappy and digital as hell.

Features:

  • Soft Saturation Simulator.
  • Gain, Punch, Clip shape & Output controls.
  • +6dB-Switch (doubles the input level).
  • Bypass.

SpectriX

ZynAddSubFX free software-synthesizer by paulnasca 2

SpectriX is a free exciter and enhancer VST plugin developed by Obertone Audio. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

SpectriX is designed for mastering and simply enhances treble. It can also be use to reconstruct high frequencies on MP3 files and tape recordings which are lost due to high compression rates.

Most exciters work well on monophonic material but on polyphonic material they often create inter-modulation-distortion which is audible as “frizzle-noise” and treble “bursts”. Spectrix is different – it is designed to work well with all kinds of audio material: Speech, monophonic sounds and complex polyphonic mixes.

NOTE: SpectriX uses the hosts’s default GUI.
