Dropshot Audio Tight Lines

Tight Lines is a free, low-CPU dual-band dynamics processor for macOS, Windows and Linux.

Split your signal into low and high bands, then gain-stage each side independently before bringing them back together. Tight Lines supports downward and upward dynamics, adjustable crossover, knee, attack, release, look-ahead, dry/wet blend, optional over-sampled soft clipping, and separate dry/wet output metering.

Choose Normal mode for direct dynamics behaviour, or Fishy mode for a feedback-style response that listens to the output and steers the gain from there.

Available as VST3, AU, CLAP and standalone.
