The free version is functional, just that some of the feature set is limited (more on this in a moment). What I should point out, in advance, is that there are generally two editions to Auburn Sounds VSTs, and Renegate is no exception. We usually sound like freshly minted fanboys at a Comic Con when talking about Auburn Sounds plugins, but we swear there is a good reason for that. But if you’ve captured a performance, you’re happy with and are wondering whether you can save it because of the excess background noise, a gate will come in extremely handy.

Meaning – if you have a distorted vocal track (because of too much gain), a gate is not going to fix that. The main thing to remember is to start with a source you’re happy with. With a bit of tweaking, you can remove a lot of background noise using FLOORFISH. The graphical user interface is a little early 2000s, to be sure, but it has a pleasing, brushed metallic quality, and it’s easy on the eyes. Simple enough to figure out even for the beginner music producer. It comes with controls for listen, detect freq, bypass, stereo, soft, sense, expansion, attack, and release. You can even scan the source and adjust the transition curve. Basically, a set of plugins that help you even out and clean up your soundwaves.įLOORFISH lets you tap into a variety of processing options, from slight expansion and background noise attenuation to extreme gating for specialized effects and sounds that cut in and out.

The fish fillets are made up of the BLOCKFISH compressor, SPITFISH de-esser, and of course, the FLOORFISH expander/gate.
