NoiseWorks GainAim

Vocal rider with five different speed modes

The GainAim vocal rider plugin comes with a variety of modes. This allows GainAim to react appropriately to different music genres and vocal dynamics. No matter the genre—be it opera, rock, hip-hop, or rap—selecting the right mode grants you precise control over volume adjustments. This also applies to the sound processing of other signals such as guitar and drums.

You can use the modes to set how quickly GainAim should adjust the actual volume to the target volume.

• Rider: The “Rider” mode enables you to preserve the natural sound of your vocals, whether in the studio or live.
• Leveler: The “Leveler” mode makes it possible to use GainAim as an autogain for each vocal track.
• Fast: The “Fast” mode is a bass rider. It is equally suitable for very dynamic signals and fast sounds, such as rap.
• Squash: The “Squash” mode turns your signal into a sausage.
• Locked: The “Locked” mode fixes the current gain setting.
