Voxengo is very happy to announce the release of
its newest plug-in: Drumformer. Drumformer is a multiband drum and master track dynamics processing plug-in for professional music and audio production applications.

Drumformer can operate in broadband, 2-band and 3-band modes, with each band having compressor-expander and saturation modules. The sound of the compressor can be defined as "gluey with a ping", because it instantly creates a "tight and glued together" sound while masterfully emphasizing the transients.
