Blue Cat Audio released FreqAnalyst Pro, a real time spectrum analyzer with advanced functionalities. It uses the same smooth algorithms as its little brother (the freeware Blue Cat’s FreqAnalyst): it has been designed to provide extreme smoothness and high resolution for both time and frequency.

The frequency analysis can be fine tuned in details: manage its precision and rate, apply an offset or slope to the measured spectrum. Two thresholding systems are available, and the time response can be changed thanks to the attack and release parameters. Three modes are offered for each channel: instant, peak or average response can be displayed on the same graph. Zooming capabilities and coordinates display let you exactly measure the characteristics of the spectrum.

The four memory slots let you store any curve in memory: it helps you make comparisons between several tracks or effects setup very easily. A spectrogram view has been added so that you can monitor the evolution of the spectrum over time. All channels are of course available in this view, with exact coordinates display and zooming capabilities.

You can now control any effect with the pitch of the audio signal: imagine a filter on an instrument controlled by the pitch of another instrument, compression depending on the pitch of the signal. The skinning language support and the included window opacity management feature can adapt the plug-in user interface to your personal needs and enhance your workflow: work faster and more efficiently.
