The deal
$89 at KVR Marketplace (down from $179). Sale ends August 21, 2026.
What it is
CGII is a mastering dynamics finishing plugin built around the techniques of veteran mastering engineer Chris Gehringer of Sterling Sound. It combines two dynamics-enhancement stages, a Density processor and a Loudness processor, that add perceived level and character to a mix without the flattening or smeared transients that typical limiters and compressors introduce. A built-in True Peak Limiter with lookahead handles the final ceiling, while up to 16x oversampling keeps the processing clean at high levels.
Who it's for
Mastering engineers and mix engineers chasing extra loudness and punch on finished tracks, especially those who want that push without sacrificing clarity or spatial depth. It suits producers polishing a final master or mix bus who care about how a track holds up next to commercially loud releases.
Key features
- Density and Loudness processors work together to raise perceived level while preserving detail and depth
- User-selectable oversampling up to 16x keeps high-level processing clean
- A True Peak Limiter with lookahead control manages the final ceiling accurately
- DC-block filtering and dither (16-24 bit) round out the signal chain, and Nixie tube-style metering displays LUFS or True Peak readings at a glance
