![]() ![]() The Rubber Band Compressor has an introductory price of just $19.99 that lasts through November. It’s also very musical and seems capable of working well on a wide variety of mix elements. You’d think that something so different would take some time to figure out but it’s actually dead easy and a brilliant way to think about compression. There’s also a Mix control for some parallel compression, an Output control, and a bypass-able Auto Makeup gain option. Like other compressors there are also Attack and Release controls, but also a Crunch control to add color, a Tilt control that adds a bit of modeled tube-style high and low shelve EQ, and a Weight button that adds some of the low end back (VCA compressors notoriously lose a bit of bottom when inserted in the signal path). The Snap knob is basically a threshold control (again, best not to think about what it is) which determines how hard you want the theoretical rubber band to be pulled. There are 3 different tension positions of the rubber band (selected by the large Tension control in the center of the UI) that represent the amount of gain reduction, although it’s best not to think in those terms when using this plugin. The display is totally unique, featuring a pair of adjustable hands that pull the rubber band tighter or looser. The signal pulls the rubber band and then snaps back based on the tension, timing, and amount chosen by the user. It’s basically a VCA-style compressor that simulates the compression effects and physical response of pushing an audio signal into a theoretical rubber band. The Rubber Brand Compressor is the brainchild of Grammy-Award-winning mixer/engineer Jess Ray Ernster (known for his work with Doja Cat, Kanye West, and Burna Boy) coupled with the technical prowess of Kiive Audio’s Eddie Lucciola. The new Rubber Band Compressor plugin from Mixland is one of those new-breed plugins that look at processing in different and refreshing way. Thankfully that revolution started a few years ago, and now we’re really starting to see plugins that think way outside the box. Rubber Band Audio is built for optimal performance on Macs with either Apple Silicon or Intel hardware.I think we’ve finally run out of vintage gear to digitally emulate, so developers are now forced to think beyond the analog sound that fewer engineers and producers seem to care about anymore. * Make adjustments to a whole folder of files at once, for example to adapt a whole folder of recordings to the same tempo, or to make the same pitch or key adjustment to all of them. ![]() * Save your changes into new audio files in lossless (WAV) or lossy (M4A) formats. * Change the pitch in semitones or smaller increments, or up to two octaves in either direction. * Rubber Band Audio picks up the tempo from the file and you can set it to a chosen target tempo or speed up and slow down as you desire. * Open and play audio files in numerous formats (MP3, M4A/AAC, WAV, Opus and others), changing the pitch and tempo live as you listen. Its exceptional sound quality and its ability to tempo-match loops, perform both tiny and huge pitch changes, and process batches of files at once, make it a professional tool as well as one for the keen amateur musician. ![]() Its quality and features mean it can even be used in a music-production workflow. What's different about Rubber Band Audio? Our latest processing engine, introduced with the 3.0 release, gives studio quality results with almost any kind of music. You can speed up or slow down music recordings without affecting their pitch transpose or adjust pitch precisely without affecting tempo change any combination of them together and save the results as new audio files. Rubber Band Audio allows you to change the pitch and tempo of music recordings independently of each other. ![]()
