Testimonial It is very hard to find something bad to say about your plugs.  You have helped me make giant leaps in terms of mastering.  As you know, I own most of your plugins and will continue to do so. Patrick de Caumette Add Your Testimonial

Voxengo LF-Punch PC VST plug-in is an FX processor for music and sounds where low-frequency thump and punch are most welcome, and where distortion is applied specifically to bring the bass kicks to life.

LF-Punch is a pretty specific FX not suitable for everything, but we felt like there is a lack of such effects specially designed for serious contemporary music producers.

In the essence, LF-Punch is able to give you the elements of low-frequency FX usually associated with tape machines thus giving you a convenient tool to apply smooth punch to your tracks and sounds whenever you need it.

LF-Punch plug-in dynamically emphasizes selected center bass frequency, performs adjustable amount of phase-shifting and then applies smooth distortion.  Optional compression can then be applied to the resulting sound.  Note that LF-Punch first splits the broad-band signal into low- and high-frequency bands and applies FX to the lower band only.

This FX can be used with a wide range of program material: various drum tracks, bass tracks, contemporary music mixes: rap, trance, club music; even rock music can benefit from LF-Punch's low frequency adjustments.

Version 1.4, 14-sep-2007
Access violation error on systems with >2GB memory solved.

Version 1.3.1, 26-apr-2007
Fixed crackles and a high CPU load when Center freq value is changed.

Version 1.3, 14-nov-2005
"LF Mono" switch implemented.  When it is enabled, low-frequency band which is being processed will be converted to mono before processing takes place.

Version 1.2, 15-aug-2005
"Hi Cut" parameter implemented.  This parameter filters out higher harmonics in the processed low-frequency signal.
