The most flexible highend dynamics plugin on this planet.
Gravitas is a compressor and expander packed with unique features. It is optimized for mastering but it can be used for anything from single sources, groups, buses, and, of course, complete mixes. Treating gravitas gently it sounds marvellously transparent as if not existing but miraculously bringing the dynamic range in shape. But with the right settings gravitas can compress your drums to give them a punch never heard before. And it can do everything in between.
Gravitas can process every track format, from mono and stereo, up to 64 input channels in Plugin mode, while in Reaper on mac as an AU-Plugin gravitas features even up to 128 channels. Integrated as a master channel module in the Dolby Atmos Composer gravitas is capable of handling dynamics of all 128 possible channels (beds and objects) of a complex Dolby Atmos mix.
Gravitas offers you everything you will ever need for shaping your dynamics as well as unique features not available in any other dynamics processor. Create complex compression/expansion curves, limit gain reduction and gain increase, variable filters for both processing and detection, parameter linking across all instances in your session, variable channel linking, variable peak mode and the "3DET" mode (inspired by the famous AMEK mastering compressor) are among the highlights of Gravitas' feature set. The input configuration dialog provides you with unprecedented flexibility especially for multichannel signals.
A gorgeous and at the same time functional user interface gives you easy access to the immense potential of Gravitas. The meters, the amplification curve and the moving level curve provide the visualization you need to immediatly see what is going on.
Fully integrating with the Dolby Atmos Composer.
What’s more, integrated as a master channel module into the Dolby Atmos Composer v1.5, gravitas becomes the worlds first dynamics processor dedicated to tackling mix bus compression and mastering for Dolby Atmos, just like you know it from decades of stereo production. gravitas MDS and the Dolby Atmos Composer bring the most powerful integrated Dolby Atmos mixing and mastering dynamics solution to the world, approved and certified by Dolby Labs.

The Blackmagic Micro Converter HDMI to SDI 12G converter you supplied was used on the main studio camera for extra outputs to cover the richest harness race in the world, which is also broadcast around the world. The $2.1 million THE TAB EUREKA 2024 harness race run at Menangle on the 7th Sept. The 12G Micro Converter didn't miss a beat! Thanks guys!
Excellent library, useful control over the kits, mic and room. Great for scratching ideas out and i can usually find the beginnings of what the mix requires from the kit. Definate thumbs up from me.
