Wave Rider : virtual fader control for Pro Tools

Wednesday April 8, 2009. 12:11 PM, by Nantho Plug-ins > Quiet Art
Plug-ins : Wave Rider : virtual fader control for Pro Tools - macmusicWave Rider is a virtual fader controller plug-in for Digidesign Pro Tools. It's a unique RTAS plug-in that detects audio signal level on the inserted channel, and controls the fader movements with the following features :

- RIDE
In this default mode, Wave Rider's level detecting algorithm automatically raises or lowers the fader level to maintain a user selectable output level by writing volume automation on the timeline. User can then alter the volume automation as needed. Makes maintaining dialnorm levels a breeze!

- DUCK
This function will lower the signal of a target track by a user selectable amount if there's signal present on the inserted track. Narration and announcements over music as heard on radio channels rely on keyed compressors with poor results, now cooler with Wave Rider.

- PARK
This is a function you'll find in Automatic Mixer boxes. The faders are parked at a user defined low level when there's little signal, and they jump up to full output when there's strong signal present, maintaining a steady output level. Particularly useful in situations where there's a lot of mics open and you want to have the cleanest signal without much background noise.

Wave Rider is available now for Mac OS X at an introductory price of $75.
