Plug-ins : Waves Center - macmusicWaves has just released a new plug-in called Center.

Ideal for final mixes and mastering, Waves Center is an innovative new processor that separates phantom Center content from Side (L/R) content. With Center, you can zero in on the phantom center and bring out or bring down the vocals without affecting everything else. Perfect for post-production engineers and DJs as well, Center lets you reposition, isolate, and even eliminate elements of your mix.

Using a unique dynamic engine which considers the amplitude, frequency, and time envelope of stereo sources, Center gives you the power to radically re-balance your spatial imagery. Adjustable punch, high frequency, and low frequency controls let you enhance detail with maximum impact.

Controls :

- High controls balance of high frequency content between the Center and Sides. 0 - 100 (0=Center)
- Low controls balance of low frequency content between the Center and Sides. 0 - 100 (0=Center)
- Punch controls the spread of transient content between the Center and Sides. 0 - 100 (0=Center)
- Center controls the Center gain. +6dB to Off
- Sides controls the Sides gain +6dB to Off
- Master Gain controls the overall stereo gain. +6dB to -24dB
- Output Meters displays the stereo output after processing. 0 dBFS to -36 dBFS
- Center Detection Meter Displays the Center content of the stereo source

Waves Center is available now for both Mac and PC in VST, AU and RTAS formats for a fee of $400 and in TDM formats for $800.

Plug-ins : Review : Mu Technologies Mu Voice - macmusicHere's a great review about Mu Voice, an inline vocal effects processor focused on harmonization, tuning, and effects.

"For those of us who have ever spent time in a studio situation attempting to give a vocalist a crash course in harmonies, or having a loop that we wished had a three part harmony, or the performer that wants backing vocals but does not have the resources or funds to support such a group, Mu Voice just might be the plug-in for you."
