[LAA] B.Spacr - New LV2 sound effect plugin

by Sven Jaehnichen

Hi, after weeks of hard work I just released the first official version of a new sound effect plugin. B.Spacr is a unique LV2 effect plugin that enables a clear and brilliant audibility of your music production. B.Spacr is suited for *any* kind of music, including rock, funk, pop, rap, and electronic music. This plugin can be added to each track individually or to the master bus with *zero latency*. The result is a space-clear sound *without any loss* of audio signal information and without any artifacts only depending on the quality of the input signal. In contrast to many over-complex audio plugins, the number of parameters have been reduced to the minimum for the best *user experience*. https://github.com/sjaehn/BSpacr <https://github.com/sjaehn/BSpacr> Enjoy and make some music with it Sven
