iZotope RX Leveler

of RX Advanced)

Available only as part of RX 7 Advanced, and coming without a separate plugin version, the Leveler module is a great solution to quickly ride your audio and come out on-the-level. No, we’re not suggesting you part with $1,199 just to get your hands on a gain-riding processor, but if RX is already hiding in your production tool kit, the Leveler is an often overlooked but excellent way to get the job done.

The Leveler is simple. Just set the Target Level, Responsiveness, Dynamics Preservation, optimise for Dialogue or music, and even get some Breath Control and De-essing while you’re at it. All this can be previewed, and several setups rendered and compared so you can choose which to commit to. It’s great if you own it already, but out of reach for most.
