Edelweiss`72 is a channel strip plugin by Black Rooster Audio that combines an expander, a 5-band equalizer, a compressor with auto-gain and a limiter in one unit. It is available in VST3, VST2, AU and AAX formats.
Edelweiss`72 is a four-module mixing tool that puts dynamics and equalization in a single plugin. The signal chain runs from expander to EQ, then compressor and limiter, so each stage can shape the signal before the next one processes it. Black Rooster Audio says the plugin is aimed at mix engineers who want precise control, and it includes metering for gain reduction, K-scale levels, phase correlation and L/R balance.
The channel strip starts with an expander that widens the dynamic range before spectral shaping. The 5-band equalizer can run in stereo or M/S mode, which lets you treat the center and sides of a mix differently.
A linear-phase mode is available for the EQ. Enabling it avoids phase shifts caused by frequency response delay, which can matter when you stack filters or work on full mixes.
The final stages are a compressor with auto-gain and make-up controls, followed by a limiter. Each module has its own gain-reduction meter.
For monitoring, the full-scale metering section shows K-12, K-14 and K-20 scales, along with phase correlation and L/R balance. The plugin also offers 17 individual bypass switches and several soloing options for auditioning modules during a mix.
