Bit man, I look forward to seeing any of your in-depth reviews on the Melda plugs.  They are certainly deep!
 
That Auto EQ function sounds a lot like Ozone's matching EQ feature.  Any real diff between the two?  
 
(I don't own the AutoDynamicEQ plug, just the regular DynamicEQ.)
 
Cheers,
Eddie
 




Yes, Ozone's EQ-matching feature is an obvious comparison. The two are indeed nearly functionally equivalent, differing mainly in the mechanics of how you go about it and how the data is presented.
 
I especially like Ozone's ability to simply draw a reference over the equalizer as a visual guide. I can display a curve for, say, Dark Side of the Moon and see if I'm in the same ballpark with a similar tune. I like that you can have up to ten references available at all times for quick comparison.
 
MAutoDynamicEQ is easier to use when comparing tracks within a project, easier to tweak the computer-suggested filter curve, and easier to moderate the intensity of the effect. It's also lighter on the CPU and doesn't have Ozone's latency issues.
 
Honestly, if you've got MDynamicEQ and Ozone then MAutoDynamicEQ might be a bit redundant. But if you do spectrum matching often (e.g. dialog editing) then MAutoDynamicEQ would be a justifiable addition.

I love Melda plugins. When does the sale end. I want to puck up the vocoder and the rhymicizer.



PM me for the "Magic" word to get the price down...

Are any of the melda limiters comparable to Ozone or worth mentioning? I have been looking at Ozone or toneboosters for a master limiter. Would any of the melda ones be worth checking out?

Thanks

If their limiters are as good as the EQ I'd buy one in a minute..IJS...


Download a demo and try it...

Many of the Melda plugins are now on the www.jrrshop.com and many are $39 dollars



Just under the wire, I got the MAutoVolume for $39.
 
I was going to upgrade to X3 and get the VocalRider (full featured) but in absence of that, this seemed sensical since most of my work involves female vocalists, some of whom get pretty aggressive in the chorus and such - I spend a LOT of time on vocal automation and I'm probably not that good on it, at least not like bitflipper ( I have never drawn an automation curve for a reverb bus) :)
 
We'll see, it's going to be fun!

and very nice...

MUltraMaximizer is pretty cool if you're after loud masters. It just happens to be on sale for $33 today only.
 
That's "today" as in what day it is in London, not today as here on the west coast, where it's still yesterday for another three hours.

Thanks kindly cclarry, the HorNet AutoGainPro looks very good also...perhaps a little more complex? I will demo it after I get the MAutovolume going...if either do what I'm hoping for, I'll have a little more time in my days and have a better end product as well :)
