The Inflator window

The StudioZIO Inflator window: an Amount slider, Input and Output gain fields, the Engaged switch, and input/output level meters.

Surface

Deliberately simple

Inflator does one job, so its window asks one thing of you at a time.

Inflator is StudioZIO’s own design — not a port or an emulation of another plug-in. One fixed curve rounds peaks off smoothly rather than cutting them, so the sound thickens and gains apparent loudness without the edge a clipper leaves behind.

Amount
The harmonic enhancement control.
Input Gain
Trims level going into the stage.
Output Gain
Trims level coming back out.
Engaged
Crossfaded bypass, switched without a click.
Metering
Input and output levels, live.
