Blue Cat Audio Releases Analysis Audio Units for Mac

Blue Cat Audio has released its audio analysis plugins for the Mac platform in Audio Unit format. The DirectX and VST for PC and VST for Mac versions of the six plugins have also been updated for this occasion, including several fixes and improvements.

These audio analysis plugins offering original interaction capabilities are available as a single bundle (Blue Cat's Analysis Pack) or separately. The bundle consists in a versatile audio level meter, spectrum and stereo field analyzers as well as a multiple tracks oscilloscope. While the "Multi" series propose simultaneous multiple tracks analysis with multiple instances linking support, the "Pro" series let you extract parameters from the incoming audio signal and record them as automation curves or send them as MIDI CC messages. Typical applications are the creation of unique side chaining effects or external signal based hardware control.

To celebrate the support of this new format, the company proposes a 15% price reduction on the Blue Cat's Analysis Pack bundle, and the upgrade is free for existing customers. Demo versions and available for download and the site offers many tutorials to get started with these plugins.
