Flux Pro vs FAC Clipper

Flux Pro is a multi-FX modulation plugin that transforms your sounds into colourful, characterful and dynamic tracks. Do you want to add graceful stereo waves to your keys, dirty pulsing side-chains to your bass, complex striking filters to your synths or noisy mechanical glitches to your drums? Modulation is king and we're offering you the throne. There are 3 customisable graphs which can perfectly sculpt your sound. Simply set the depth of the controls in the 4 effects slots, from which you can use a variety of 10 modulation effects. Are you in a hurry and need movement quickly? Easily drag 1 of the 48 built-in shapes onto the graph for fast and effective modulation. Key Features - 3 custom graphs that can be assigned to any modulation parameter. - 10 different effects in four effects slots. - 48 drag-able shapes for fast and effective rhythmic sketches. - MIDI Triggering; One-Shot & Retrigger. - Output graphs as MIDI CC to control other plugins* - Control Voltage graph output to send to external hardware. - 115 presets to get you started. * This feature is not supported by all DAWs. Effects Flux Pro has four effects slots from which you can use; Filter 1, Filter 2, Delay, Delay (Fixed), Width, Phaser, Chorus/Flanger, Rate Modulation, Ring Modulation and Utility. Try shaping the Ring Modulation's frequency and harmonic amount to add mechanical flavours to your bass. Or maybe create some ethereal vocal delays by programming audio reverses an octave up with Fixed Delay's sample control. Then, apply a slow sine to the other Delay's time and feedback controls to create more movement. Perhaps a mix approach, is your piano getting masked by a synth? Setup Flux Pro on the piano track with a boosted high shelf filter, some gentle chorus and additional width. Then, set Flux Pro's MIDI Input to the Synth, so that every time the synth plays the piano is given a little push to stand out in the mix. Not good enough, want to get weird? Vary the formant filters' cutoff and resonance as if your music is flowing through someone's throat. Why not set the Fixed Delay to repeat every other bar at an octave lower so you can moodily duet with yourself on those lonely nights. Lastly, have quick oscillations of Rate Modulation to add percussive texture to your audio, and more importantly, save yourself the humiliation of recording a shaker track. Flux Pro is both a stand-alone application as well as an AUv3 plugin, meaning it works within iOS and iPadOS hosts such as GarageBand.

While it is based on a similar DSP architecture to the Clip processor in FAC Punchlab, it takes a different approach to clipping control, featuring an advanced user interface with precise metering to track and manage the peaks of the audio signal. The plugin also includes both a full-band clipper that processes the entire spectrum and a multi-band clipper, allowing you to independently clip low, high, or both frequency bands. This provides the flexibility to maintain transparent processing or experiment with creative adjustments, depending on your needs. Built with simplicity and flexibility in mind, FAC Clipper is quick, lightweight, and highly intuitive. The clean, streamlined interface lets you focus on what matters most; controlling the peak levels to maximize loudness while preserving clarity and avoiding the pumping effects often associated with heavily limited signals. Thanks to its precise waveform and level meters, using FAC Clipper is a breeze. Simply add the plugin to your track and adjust the input gain until the waveform meter reaches 0 dB. This gives you a clear view of the signal's dynamic range, making it easier to identify peaks. Next, set the ceiling just below the peaks you wish to control. You can also adjust the Knee parameter for smoother clipping and fine-tune the saturation to achieve the perfect warmth and character. Use the Mix parameter to blend the clipped signal with the original audio, allowing you to control the amount of clipping applied. This helps preserve the natural character of the sound while enhancing loudness and harmonic warmth.
