Reinventing The Wheel

Since the mid-20th century, audio dynamics processing has remained largely unchanged. Why fix something that works—at least on the surface?

For creative professionals striving for clarity and efficiency, traditional tools often fall short—feeling rigid, mechanical, and time-consuming. And with tighter deadlines and shrinking budgets, achieving high-quality results quickly isn’t just a goal; it’s a necessity.

That’s where Dynamic Grading comes in. With a fresh, fluid approach to dynamics processing, it redefines how you shape your sound—delivering smoother, more intuitive control for mixing engineers and musicians.

Are we reinventing the wheel? Not quite—we’re making it smoother, smarter, and more efficient than ever.

A Threefold Dynamics Engine

Dynamic Grading goes far beyond traditional dynamics processing by taking control of three distinct parts of the dynamic range, each serving a specific purpose.

Independently adjust compression or expansion ratios in the Punch, Body, and Floor of your signal for nuanced control.

Land A Punch

Think of it like a transient shaper. Make instruments more present and upfront, or push them farther away to create depth in your mix.

Get The Body In Shape

Here’s where a lot of the action happens. Apply compression or expansion to only the core dynamics of the sound, without affecting transient clarity.

Swipe The Floor

Make your mix shine and clean out unwanted noise. Or use this to increase or decrease reverb or room. It’s simple and almost like magic!

What Else Makes Dynamic Grading Different?

Dynamic Grading comes packed with features designed to achieve great sound and intuitive control without leaving you lost in a forest of knobs.

Dynamic Histograms

Stop guessing threshold and ratio values. Gain real-time visual insight into your audio's dynamic range. View the input and output signals side by side to shape your sound intuitively.

Spectrum Control

The easy to use sidechain tilt filter guarantees natural-sounding results by properly accounting for the spectral balance of your audio. Our Magic Eye guides your way to the sweet spot.

Precision Timing

Achieve natural and smooth dynamics with Auto-Lookahead and Natural Release Basllistics.

Multichannel Support

This is one of the few dynamics plugins offering support for multichannel audio formats like Atmos. Shape, mix and master everything form mono tracks to 3D audio beds and masters up to 16 channels. All with continuously variable channel link.
