01) Introducing GOLD CLIP PACK: More Than a Clipper
GOLD CLIP is much more than just another clipper.
Gold Clip Pack is a family of plugins designed to bring loudness, saturation, and energy to your mixes and masters. It includes both a Mastering Clipper and a Track Clipper, powered by the same advanced internal technology. With unique features like Boxtone, the digital tape-style dynamic processor Alchemy, a parallel mixer, and anti-overshoot oversampling, these tools help you craft mixes and masters with loudness and impact.
02) Get Quick Results with Gold Clip Pack
This is a simple, straightforward way to use GOLD CLIP for mixing and mastering in any genre.
03) Gain Staging in Gold Clip Pack
Don't be intimidated. While the internal gain staging of GOLD CLIP is complex, the functionality on the interface is very simple. Once you understand it, you'll be ready to use the plugin in any scenario.

Box Tone is one of the more subtle processors on GOLD CLIP, but I often find it helpful when I want to smooth out the top end of digital recordings. In effect, Box Tone is a hyper-sonic low-pass filter that cleans up some of the digital ugliness on the very top of a mix.
09) Unlocking True Parallel Processing
In my mixing I use a lot of parallel processing. Parallel compression, distortion, modulation, and obviously time-based effects. The benefit of using parallel processing is …
10) Zooming In: Master Metering with Gold Clip
Did you know that GOLD CLIP's meters and waveform display scaling can be magnified?
The default scaling is +6 dBFS -> -36 dBFS, but if you double-click the scale …
11) Sophisticated Oversampling, Simplified
Oversampling is a passionate subject for a lot of people, but I believe many spend far too much time thinking about it.
