SOFTCLIP v1.0 — Now Available

Our mastering-grade soft clipper is here. Five saturation algorithms, built-in RMS compression, and a real-time waveform display.

We're thrilled to announce the release of SOFTCLIP v1.0 — the latest addition to the Neu Audio plugin family.

SOFTCLIP is a mastering-grade soft clipper and limiter designed for transparent loudness. It features five distinct saturation algorithms (Tanh, Sine, Arctangent, Cubic, and Hard), each offering a different flavor of harmonic saturation.

The built-in RMS compressor lets you tame dynamics before they hit the clipper, giving you surgical control over your master bus. The real-time waveform display shows exactly where clipping occurs, so you always know what's happening to your signal.

Key features include up to 8x oversampling, auto-gain compensation, A/B/C/D preset comparison slots, and a tilt filter for pre and post shaping.

Available now for macOS (AU, VST3, CLAP) with Windows support coming soon.
