MDWDRC2-Native Pro Tools Production Expert Review

Production Experts Gold Award “Responding primarily to loudness as opposed to signal levels alone, MDWDRC2 sets out to surpass the traditional combination of fader rides and compression. This promises automatic transparent level control of even the greatest of dynamic extremes”

The review includes two example videos showing how the DRC2 can control levels without the artefacts associated with other dynamics control plugins.

What the Reviewers and our Customers say about MDWDRC…

DRC2 has become an invaluable tool in mixing operas for broadcast.  It's ability to musically and transparently control the wide dynamic range of an operatic voice is truly incredible.  On a recent project, I inserted it on all 16 wireless body microphones, where I would have previously used a traditional compressor.  Not only were the results far better, but it saved an enormous amount of time.

MDWDRC2‑Native is a genuinely different dynamics plug‑in that has a unique ability to iron out level variations without sounding like it’s doing anything at all. If you demo it, you might find it hard to live without it.

MDWDRC2-Native - Incredible transparency: 15 dB of gain reduction on a solo piano - I couldn’t achieve this using any other dynamics tools I currently have.

Mike Thorne

Production Expert

The MDWDRC2-Native is by far the most transparent dynamics plugin in my folder. My main selling points are how different this plugin is from all my other compressor/limiters, along with how great it sounds – or doesn't sound

MDWDRC2 is revolutionary and I'm incorporating it in every mix for every use from natural sounding and gentle control to typical Pop music treatments and then for radical sound design and wacky effects. I'm hooked on it.

MDWDRC2-Native is unbelievably transparent like no other dynamics processor & arguably the most capable plug-in for leveling vocals, speech and dialog. Flexible enough to take on music or post-production with ease.
