MDWDRC2-Native Professional
Dynamic Range Controller

State of the Art Sound Quality & Transparency

Like No Other

Now Available in Pro Tools AAX Native, VST3 & AU

Massenburg DesignWorks® announces the MDWDRC2-Native high-resolution Dynamic Range Controller plugin, setting new professional standards for much-improved dynamics in the digital audio space. Previously limited to development partners around the world, the Best Worst Kept Secret in audio processing has finally become available.

The MDWDRC2-Native is best utilized as a Dynamic Loudness Controller, an ‘Automatic Intelligent Level Controller’ which responds to loudness much as our ears do, and does so unlike no other. It utilizes the advanced sensing and broad applicability established by the GML 8900, demonstrating dramatically reduced artifact compared with traditional peak/average devices, even with 15-20dB of gain reduction.

The MDWDRC2-Natve is fundamentally a ‘True RMS Sensing’ device, as contrasted with an ‘Average’ or ‘Peak’ sensing device — more sensitive to ‘Loudness’ than to peak or average digital (or electrical) levels. The MDWDCR2-Native is the culmination of 26 years of extensive research, listening, testing and development of a unique technology termed VEA (Variable Exponent Averager, which is a patented method to vary its detector’s sensitivity from RMS-responding to peak-responding).

It’s just better..!!

BENEFITS

• Dramatically reduces artifact compared with traditional peak/average devices, even with 15-20dB of gain reduction
• Extraordinary control of gain reduction artifacts, from imperceptable to highly-audible (highly-affected)
• The low end does not sound ‘crumpled’ it stays clear, warm, and just compressed/processed as it should
• The attack sounds right, you’ll hear it right away, the attack can screw up your ears with most digital compressors
• MDWDRC2 sounds like good high-quality pro-audio analog on **** steroids
• It’s just better – try out the demo to fully understand how dynamics should sound. We reset the demo in Feb23 so you can check out the latest features even if you checked out the MDWDRC2-Native demo previously.
