This week's featured free plug-in from our free plug-ins database is OTT from Xfer Records.
What Is OTT?
OTT started life as a preset for the Multiband Dynamics plug-in in Ableton Live. As the name suggests it is Over The Top and if you really want to hype your signal, this is a good choice. Xfer Records released this Freeware version so if you want to access this sound outside of Ableton Live, you can.
its a 3 band dynamics plug-in which combines standard downward processing with upwards processing meaning that the peaks are pulled down and just as importantly the low level sounds are boosted. Basically its a case of everything louder than everything else. it’s possible to use it subtly but we’d argue that that would be missing the point!
