RJ Studios has released SubMassive, a sub-harmonic generator plugin for macOS and Windows.
The idea behind SubMassive is that "you can't EQ what isn't there". In the same way that harmonic exciters can be used to generate high end for sounds lacking high frequencies SubMassive can be used to generate low frequencies that do not exist in the source material.
SubMassive works by synthesizing low frequency audio an octave below the source audio using a high quality pitch shift algorithm that has been optimized for low frequencies. The plugin uses audio information above the "Fill Below" threshold to generate audio information below the threshold, thereby adding "weight" to the source signal. The new low frequencies are harmonically related to the source audio and tightly coupled in transient accuracy.
The generated LFE signal can further be adjusted to lead or lag the source signal allowing unique sound modifications.
SubMassive can be used to:
- Create massive low end in EDM mixes.
- Add "weight" to kick drums, snare drums and toms.
- Fatten lead vocal and instrument tracks.
- Generate an LFE channel for post-production video.
- Modify sounds using low end time shift effects.
SubMassive is a 64-bit plugin available in VST, VST3 and AAX formats for Windows and AU, VST, VST3, AAX formats for Mac OS 10.11+ on Intel and Apple Silicon.
Intro Price: $24.95 USD through 4 February, 2024 ($29.95 regular price thereafter).
Free 14-day trial demos are available at the RJ Studios website.
