Equipped with linear-phase oversampling, mid/side processing and metering, Pro-G can be added to the FabFilter tool kit.
FabFilter Pro-G offers five algorithms, including classic analog models and upward expansion, as well as specific designs for vocal and guitar processing. In combination with the adjustable threshold, ratio, range settings and attack, release, hold and look-ahead times, Pro-G will process your drum and vocal tracks. At the same time, Pro-G is also a tool to restore lost dynamics while mastering.
FabFilter Pro-G’s real-time level display and accurate meters combine input, output and gain reduction levels.
A click on the Expert button will resize the interface to make space for additional external side-chain input and side-chain filtering controls. The expert panel contains wet/dry level and panning controls, and allows the side-chain path and linking to be set up in various ways. The interface adapts its size to reveal the expert controls when needed, making it possible to use FabFilter Pro-G as a straightforward gate, or as a creative expander.
