FLUX Pure DExpander Audio Dynamics Processing Plug-In

Restore the original dynamics of audio material with Pure DExpander from FLUX, an expander and dynamics processor plug-in designed to carefully restore the organic character of audio. By intensifying sound energy below the threshold, you can restore natural dynamics to heavily compressed audio for a louder signal without harshness.

Full Control over Processing

In addition to the common controls on a dynamics processor (ratio, attack, release), Pure DExpander offers control over the fundamental characteristics of the dynamics processing:

Extended envelope settings with full control of Attack, Hold, and Release, with Manual, Auto, and Advanced Release modes

Zero attack time dynamics processing, generated by a delay, reflecting the attack into the signal path

Eight different detection modes interacting with the time and envelope settings

Dynamic Factor amplified or diminishes the extracted real-time dynamics information

Open Up the Sound

Dynamics Ratio controls the auto ratio determined by the signal dynamics, literally opening up the sound and increasing the dynamic impression

Level Independent Detection (LID) controls the amount of auto threshold determined by the signal dynamics and manual threshold value

Maximum mode can be engaged from the LID control, allowing for processing that accounts for the maximum values of both standard and LID detection schemes

Control the Stereo Width of Your Mix

To control the actual Stereo width of the mix, a built-in mid-side (M/S) encoder/decoder is used to split the stereo-signal into its mid and side components in order to control the actual stereo width of the mix.

The M/S width control sets the stereo width of the processed signal with a maximum range of ±6 dB

M/S mode control enables one M/S encoding matrix on the input and one M/S decoding matrix at the output, creating a side-chain that is fed by the M/S encoded signal

Individual Multichannel Processing

Up to sixteen channels of simultaneous processing for multichannel surround configuration is provided. The processing can be disengaged on any of the channels leaving the material unprocessed and bypassing the original sound.

Dual Preset Slots and Parameter Morphing

The built-in preset manager and preset morphing slider provide instant and intuitive control of all parameters and controls. With simple one-click operation, everything is copied from one of the two preset slots to the other, even during playback.
