Feature update e for the our popular plugin designed for achieving the perfect balance of loudness and clarity in your mix and mastering
We at HoRNet Plugins are thrilled to announce the release of HoRNet Magnus MK3 version 1.0.2, the latest update to our powerful and versatile plugin designed for mixing and mastering. Whether you’re an aspiring producer or an experienced audio engineer, Magnus MK3 provides all the essential tools you need to achieve a perfect balance of loudness and clarity in your audio. With its intuitive interface and advanced algorithms, this plugin is built to give you total control over your sound, making it an essential addition to your audio toolkit.
HoRNet Magnus MK3 combines two essential functions: a clipper section and a limiter section. The clipper section gives you the ability to shape your audio in unique ways. With five different algorithms, including tape saturation, the clipper can add much-needed warmth, color, and character to your tracks. Whether you’re working on drums, vocals, or full mixes, the clipper section ensures your sound is smooth and rich, adding harmonic content that can bring your music to life.
The limiter section, on the other hand, is perfect for controlling dynamics in your track. This section features five specially designed algorithms, including one that emulates analog limiting. This gives you the ability to apply transparent compression and control the overall loudness of your mix without losing the natural dynamics or transparency. The plugin’s precise control helps you to achieve professional results, whether you are mastering a track or processing a single sound within a mix.
One of the defining features of Magnus MK3 is its intuitive interface. We’ve designed the plugin to be as user-friendly as possible, ensuring that you can focus on the creative aspects of your project rather than get bogged down by complicated settings. The gain controls for both the clipper and limiter sections allow you to fine-tune the input levels, giving you total control over how your sound evolves. You can increase or decrease the gain, sculpting your audio to achieve the precise tone and dynamics you’re aiming for.
The adjustable ceiling limit is another key feature. This control allows you to set a threshold that ensures audio peaks are kept in check, preventing distortion and clipping in the final output. It helps maintain consistency and avoids unwanted surprises in the mastering stage.
You can also synchronize the limiter’s release time with your DAW’s tempo, ensuring smooth integration with the tempo of your track. If you prefer a more automated process, the auto-release algorithm will intelligently adjust the release time for you, ensuring that your audio maintains its musicality and coherence without any effort on your part.
At HoRNet, we take pride in providing high-quality audio tools, and Magnus MK3 is no exception. With up to 16X oversampling for both the clipper and limiter sections, you can rest assured that the audio quality will remain pristine, free from unwanted distortion or artifacts. The oversampling ensures that you get the most transparent and accurate results possible, even when applying heavy processing.
To further enhance your ability to maintain consistent loudness across your track, Magnus MK3 features an output gain compensation tool. This helps you keep your loudness levels even throughout the entire track, whether you’re adjusting the levels during mixing or mastering. This feature is especially useful for preventing the loss of dynamic range during the limiting process and ensuring your mix maintains its punch and clarity.
The Delta mode allows you to focus on the specific differences between the original and processed audio, providing you with a more detailed view of how the plugin is affecting your track. This feature is invaluable when you need to make critical decisions about how much limiting is appropriate, especially during the brick wall limiting process.
Accurate metering is crucial in both mixing and mastering, and Magnus MK3 delivers a suite of meters to help you make informed decisions about your audio. The LU range meter allows you to keep track of the dynamic range of your track, ensuring that you are not over-compressing or losing the musicality of your sound. By monitoring the LU range, you can make sure your mix is dynamic and lively, with enough contrast between the loud and quiet parts of your track.
In addition, Magnus MK3 comes with LUFS metering, which gives you precise control over the loudness of your audio. LUFS (Loudness Units relative to Full Scale) is the industry standard for measuring loudness, and this meter ensures that your track is within the required levels for professional broadcast or streaming services. Additionally, the True Peak meter helps you identify any inter-sample peaks, ensuring that your audio is compliant with industry standards and will sound great across all listening platforms.
The release of HoRNet Magnus MK3 version 1.0.2 brings several important updates and fixes to improve the plugin’s functionality:
Oversampling Issue Fixed: In the previous version, there was an issue where oversampling was not functioning properly in the limiter section. This has been addressed, ensuring that both the clipper and limiter sections now offer optimal audio quality and transparency.
Negative Value for Limiter Ceiling: The new update allows you to enter negative values for the limiter ceiling. This added feature provides even more control, enabling you to tweak your settings with greater precision.
Crash/Fix on Windows: We have resolved the issue that caused the plugin to crash or freeze on Windows systems. This fix ensures that Magnus MK3 runs smoothly and reliably on all systems.
Improved Input Box Behavior: The behavior of input boxes has been optimized for better functionality when entering values via the keyboard, making the plugin even easier to use.
This update is available free of charge for all current owners of HoRNet Magnus MK3. To download the latest version, simply visit the user area on our website or use the HoRNet DoIn downloader/installer. We encourage all users to download and install this update to take full advantage of the new features and improvements.
HoRNet Magnus MK3 is the go-to tool for mixing and mastering. Its powerful combination of a clipper and limiter, along with its precise control and intuitive interface, make it an essential plugin for audio professionals. Whether you’re adding warmth to your tracks with tape saturation or controlling dynamic range with an analog-style limiter, Magnus MK3 gives you the flexibility and control you need to achieve the perfect sound.
With oversampling, accurate metering, and an auto-release feature, Magnus MK3 ensures that your audio remains transparent and high-quality throughout the entire process. The ease of use, combined with its powerful capabilities, makes this plugin an invaluable tool for both beginners and experienced professionals alike.
