Auto-Align 2

Auto-Align 2 is ideal for stationary multi-mic recordings like drum kits. It automatically corrects phase issues between mics and applies spectral phase optimization to fix phase shifts caused by the recording chain for a powerful, defined sound. With ARA2 integration, you enjoy zero latency and real-time track-based processing, so you can keep the plugin open while recording. The processing is applied instantly when you hit play, with no need to capture new clips. Streamline your workflow and achieve faster, more efficient results effortlessly.

Auto-Align Post 2

On a film set, you often juggle a mix of moving and stationary mics capturing the same scene—from lav mics and boom mics to multiple on-set mics, all capturing the story. By applying adaptive time alignment and spectral phase correction, Auto-Align Post 2 helps you bring out the true richness of your dialogue. With ARA2, you get real-time processing and a new track-focused edit window in Pro Tools, making your workflow more streamlined and intuitive than ever.

Pi

When tracks play together, they overlap and interact across the frequency range and phase position. Pi automatically adjusts the phase of each channel to minimize frequency cancellations and enhance the overall punch and depth of your mix. It’s essential for unleashing the full impact of your mix, ensuring overlapping frequencies interact constructively. It’s like having an invisible hand fine-tuning your mix to perfection.
