Nugen Audio has updated its Visualizer audio analysis suite and real-time comparison toolset with the release of v2.

Designed for music mixing and mastering, and audio postproduction, Visualizer is now available in plug-in and stand-alone versions bringing user interface enhancements and support for Avid Pro Tools HDX.

‘This version is our first Pro Tools HDX plug-in,’ says company founder and Creative Director, N Jon Schorah. ‘Through more flexible use of display real estate and more robust diagnostic power, Visualizer is now the most powerful single analysis tool on the market. Engineers can access the information they need, when they need it, with no unnecessary clutter.’

The system has a fully resizable interface, allowing screen configurations to be adjusted to suit individual workflows. A new multiview feature enables comparison of multiple sources using a single plug-in, and a new difference view shows the contrast of two input signals. Visual ‘solo’ controls for all views enable rapid switching to full screen mode and highly efficient in-depth investigation of individual analysis views.

In addition, Visualizer now includes a moveable vectorscope boundary to further enhance view configuration, and a new Correlation by Frequency view for analysing how certain frequencies can affect correlation. It also works with the Nugen Audio ‘Send’ plug-in to allow two sources to be overlaid or compared, for example, to reveal differences clearly before or after the mastering chain or for notching out.
