Description

SEGX2 is a smooth dual-band expander gate from Sonic Anomaly with soft-knee operation beginning at the threshold. Its low and high bands have independent release times, while the band-link control can join their behavior for wide-band operation.

The plugin includes adjustable ratio, detector-sidechain monitoring, and a pre-gate option that opens the gate in advance. It is listed as a Win32 and Win64 VST with 6 dB/octave crossover filters.
