HoRNet AutoGain Pro

€22

Set your Gain Level, Maximum and Minimum, and the Attack and Release to get started with AutoGain Pro and have the yellow triangle ‘fader’ dancing in response to your audio and your settings. There are plenty more parameters to be getting on with, turning AutoGain Pro into a full-on gain-riding workstation. Sidechain parameters allow you to control response with an external signal, and choose detector Attack, Release, High-Pass and Low-Pass. Reverse mode flips positive and negative gain, you can gate the signal, process in RMS or Peak mode, and Classic mode strips it all back to basics.

The implementation of gain-riding and the plethora of controls can hurt the process, depending on the task you’re doing, but this isn’t the only AutoGain option from HoRNet. The vanilla AutoGain does a similar job with fewer tools, while AutoGain Pro Mk2 provides two detectors, two processors, and also adds mid/side capability.
