Dugan Speech and Dugan Automixer are the definitive solution for broadcast news panels, radio and TV talk shows, houses of prayer, motion picture dialog recording, discussion panels, and any other situation involving numerous microphones and participants.
In this high-value package, you get the Dugan Speech plugin for integrated use inside the eMotion LV1 mixing console, and the Dugan Automixer plugin for use with other major consoles via the SuperRack plugin host. Developed with pro audio inventor Dan Dugan, both Dugan plugins are powered by his patented voice-activated process.
The Dugan plugins save you the need to manually ride faders while trying to keep up with several people talking. They can auto-mix up to 64 channels simultaneously and make perfectly matched crossfades, without compression or noise gates that would cause unwanted artifacts. They also reduce noise, feedback and comb filtering from neighboring microphones, ensuring consistent overall gain even when numerous speakers are talking simultaneously.
