The beat detection-based dynamics processor that brings each individual drum hit to a target level – working as downward and upward compressor, expander and gate at the same time.

Drum Leveler brings a new approach to drum dynamics: instead of blanket processing, it applies exactly as much gain to each individual beat as needed to reach the desired target level. Bleed and any beats outside your user-defined processing range remain untouched. Dual thresholds let you process only specific beats such as ghost notes or bleed, and the transient-accurate gain changes keep transients clean, without artefacts. The result is solid, driving grooves, improved clarity and added punch for any percussive performance.
