Essential Information About the Aligner Software
- Automatically corrects phase alignment and polarity issues between multi-mic takes.
- Improves spectral coherence for less "thin" and fuller tracks, without artifacts.
- Speeds up the workflow in studio and post-production with phase alignment in just a few clicks.
- Integrates into most DAWs via VST-3, AU, and AAX.
What Aligner Is For
Aligner is a plug-in dedicated to multi-mic recordings and doubled sources. It synchronizes the signal arrival between different tracks-for example, overheads and snare, DI and guitar amp, stereo pair and close mic-to restore constructive frequency addition and transient focus.
Main Features
Intelligent Analysis and Correction
The plug-in evaluates the time offset between tracks and applies the necessary compensation to realign the signals "in phase." It simultaneously manages polarity to avoid bass cancellations and the sensation of a "hollow" mix.
Fast and Reliable Workflow
Designed for daily use, Aligner reduces manual back-and-forth: a few adjustments are enough to achieve a clean and reproducible result, whether on a multichannel drum kit, guitar reamp, or a set of ambient microphones.
Fine Control and DAW Integration
Besides automatic alignment, manual settings allow adjustments down to the millisecond or sample level, with correlation meters to visually and audibly validate the correction. Compatible with the most common Mac and Windows environments.
