GoodMath
The deal
$29 at KVR Marketplace (down from $49). Deal runs through August 21, 2026.
What it is
GoodMath is a dynamics plugin from Metric Halo, available in VST, VST3, Audio Unit, and AAX formats. It's built as a flexible gain-staging and clipping tool, giving you three distinct mathematical approaches to shaping dynamics rather than one fixed algorithm. A built-in soft-saturator (playfully nicknamed "the A-Hole") adds harmonic character and glue without locking you into a single tonal signature.
Who it's for
Mixing and mastering engineers who want a gain-staging tool they can shape by ear rather than by rigid presets, especially those already working with Metric Halo's ecosystem of plugins.
Key features
- Three selectable dynamics-processing modes for different gain-staging behavior
- Built-in soft-saturator for adding warmth, glue, and character
- MH Preset Manager for organizing and sharing presets across Metric Halo plugins
- Resizable interface with a set of ready-to-use starting presets
