Punch

The intelligent dynamics shaper

Punch is suitable for both individual sounds and complex material like mixed music, even when excessive dynamic processing has been applied, which would normally leave traditional transient shapers ineffective. It applies its processing to all sound components separately, with up to more than one hundred bands of exquisite filtering. With two alternative algorithms, a transparent sounding output clipper, support for up to 16 channels for immersive workflows, and Zynaptiq's signature workflow, you’ll be ready for a punchy, present, and transparent sound in seconds!
