Been waiting for a clipper from bx, so great news

[@Tabzunderground]

Woooohooooo I’ve been waiting for a clipper from Brainworx for a while now 🎉. Thank god this came at just the right time when I was looking at another Clipper. Can’t wait to try it out

[@PluginAllianceTV]

Awesome, let us know how it works for you!

[@Tabzunderground]

@@PluginAllianceTV Hi guys, thought I reply back and say this has been a real game changer for me , as I'm reaching higher audio levels i haven't been able to reach in a breeze.. Thank you for this tool

[@mattbigelow4355]

Would be nice to hear different genres of music. But well done Plugin Alliance and Brainworx teams on another release!

[@mendiapodaca]

Nicely explained and good tips. Thank you.

[@lennartrauhe7194]

Looks decent 😌 looking forward to trying it! Especially what it might do in parallel on the drum bus for electronic stuff

[@heyguesswhat2414]

This clipper sounds incredible highly highly recommend.

[@PluginAllianceTV]

Much appreciated. Thank you so much!

[@producermathew]

First plugin in a while I have been excited to try!!

[@bx_dirk2771]

Congrats team! This is an amazing release!

[@PluginAllianceTV]

Thank you so much!

[@croay]

Kudos for actually gain matching the examples and congratulations to BX for the release. It's not really for me, especially with Plugin Alliance's pricing/policies behind it but it's nice to have yet another clipper option around.

[@jorgefrias7889]

What policies are you concerned about? i'm asking because I own a ton of their plugins.

[@izakboom8487]

Well explained! Thanks PA!

[@PluginAllianceTV]

We're glad to hear it was helpful. Thank YOU for the nice feedback!

[@ernestbuckley8671]

Great plug, just started to use it and it delivers as promised.

[@PluginAllianceTV]

Nice, thanks for letting us know and enjoy your new tool!

[@MegaSoteris]

This clipper sound very natural...Good job.

[@PluginAllianceTV]

Thank you so much!

[@Jamusictv]

Yessssssssss! Lately I’ve been down a mad rabbit hole of clippers. And this thing looks incredible!!! Going to refresh my Mega XXL bundle right now. ❤

[@PluginAllianceTV]

Cheers and enjoy your sessions!

[@Jamusictv]

@@PluginAllianceTV thanks !!!

[@wallykuhlenberg]

Finally!!!!!!!

[@maxuno8524]

Finally! Beeen waiting.

[@abcdubeatmaking]

Nice clipper ❤😍😍

[@ipappiprinx3267]

Great Plugin.

[@Janomix]

Nice addition to compare and test beside with my loyal friend SIR StandardCLIP. Thanks.

[@PluginAllianceTV]

Cheers, and let us know how it goes!

[@paulosenoni]

Hey! Let us know how they compare. SIR is my go to clipper too, dying to know if this is better.

[@PluginAllianceTV]

To see and hear how our plugins work for you and how they compare to existing plugins or hardware, you can try individual plugins for 14 days by activating a trial license from your DAW - or just test our entire catalogue and services for 1 month! Just head over to our new MEGASTORE to start your free month of MEGA: www.pa-megastore.com/mega/

[@alfredgrupstra]

A great addition to the toolbox, but to be honest, couldn't buy it without my voucher codes. In my opinion this clipper is great for pre limiting. Testing it the coming few weeks.

[@Joeknowsit-ALL]

Can't wait to compare it next to my favourite clipper from Kazrog. Its good to have two clippers with two different flavours

[@PluginAllianceTV]

Let us know what you think!

[@royklerks1266]

Thank you. Wish masterdesk pro had the color option too !!!

[@PluginAllianceTV]

Thanks for letting us know!

[@Dysjoint]

Not too sure about the hard clip ceiling, I seem to be busting through 0 far too easily when I push it, but apart from that, as a saturator/soft clipper this sounds really good.

[@bassnavour]

would be nice to have an "offline render" option to set the oversampling higher when exporting files (i.e., while producing have 4x oversampling, when exporting have 16x)

[@marcin27barcikowsky22]

Not just product introduction and presentation but so many other very useful mixing tips. Excellent knowledge base and clear and concise video. Well done!

[@PluginAllianceTV]

We're glad it was helpful. Thanks for the awesome feedback!

[@GloveBunniesVideos]

The "auto ceiling" feature is very cool. Not even SiR Audio's StandardCLIP has something like this.

[@PluginAllianceTV]

Thanks for the nice feedback!

[@JoshuaTMagee]

Great news for the MEGA bundle, but holy moly, $250 for a clipper?!

[@happylittlesynth]

I wouldn't worry...they have nearly constant sales just like Waves. $250 is just fluff

[@PluginAllianceTV]

The Brainworx bx_clipper has more to offer than standard clippers. Inspired by analog circuits but designed from the beginning as a purely digital tool, it combines the best aspects of both worlds into a versatile tool with a modern, intuitive interface and a distinct sonic signature not found in other, purely digital clipping plugins. Our goal was to find just the right balance of features and ease of use to allow the seasoned engineers a wide palette of sounds while still getting the job done with just a few parameter adjustments in the hands of an up-and- coming enthusiast. The new Brainworx plugin has been added to MEGA and Brainworx Bundles at no extra cost. For a limited time only you get the new bx_clipper for just $149.99 with checkout code: CLIPPER-INTRO-14999

[@TheeRocker]

@@happylittlesynth I think we miss Dirk ;) lol...

[@MarcoS-pw9px]

But even on 4x Oversampling its very high on Cpu! Love it but I don't know on how many tracks/groups I can throw it....

[@JSSTUDIO-wr2jq]

🙂👍

[@hanspanzer]

performance heavy af

[@BigMTBrain]

Are there any presets for bx_clipper. I did a re-install of the Mega L bundle, also downloaded the VST presets and moved them to the proper locations, but there's only a .PDF manual for bx_clipper in either of the two PA presets locations. Any suggestions?

[@PluginAllianceTV]

The Brainworx bx_clipper comes with a smattering of presets. If you have trouble finding them or if you have technical questions, please contact our Product Support team: support.plugin-alliance.com/hc/en-us/categories/10092720300829-Product-Support

[@LCondabeat]

@2:20 XL V2 a saturator ? I know it has saturation but why not the bx_saturator v2. kinda threw me off is all.

[@xhrtrr]

is there an option to disable oversampling

[@PluginAllianceTV]

Yes, it's on the right side of the top tool bar. Please check out the manual on page 8 for further information.

[@101Licious]

Is it useful when you already have masterdesk pro ? Or just a waste of money ?

its pretty nice cant lie, not paying $250 for it though

If you're a MEGA Bundle subscriber, it's included in your subscription at no additional cost :)

[@0bsoninc.607]

@@PluginAllianceTV had it before, awesome bundle but I can’t justify paying that much for it all

[@hammerfall66rulz]

Good explanation of plug in, need better audio examples. Just using it on beats & loops doesn't show the potential capability of the clipper. Show it being used on mixes of different genres, hip hop rock metal pop.
