Zynaptiq releases Intensity 2 Early Access

Wednesday April 30, 2025. 04:50 PM , from KVR Audio
Zynaptiq has announced Intensity 2 with an Early Access program. Intensity 2 A massive update, Intensity 2 doubles down on the classic's core features and workflow, adding new features and improvements across the board, including new algorithms with low CPU use and near-zero latency, support for up to 16 channels for immersive workflows, more Bias Curve presets, mid/side processing options, and much more. Conceptually similar to what HDR does for photography, Intensity 2 brings out a sound's inherent detail, increases perceived loudness, and adds clarity and bite - and is operated using essentially a single control. Between three proprietary algorithms, mid/side processing, an optional soft-knee saturating limiter, 16-channel support, and a super-fast and inspiring workflow, Intensity 2 is a must-have for mixing, mastering, and sound design. New features in Intensity 2: New CRYSTAL and BRONZE algorithms: based on Zynaptiq's custom engineered minimum phase filter bank, CRYSTAL and BRONZE bring a sound with more bite and stronger transients to the table. Optionally running in 64-bit precision, both feature significantly reduced CPU load and near-zero latency (3 samples). The v1 algorithm is of course still included, and has been renamed to SMOOTH. Support for up to 16 channels for immersive workflows. M/S Processing: Stereo instances can now process either the stereo signal, just the Mid channel, or just the Side channel. Using Intensity on the Side channel produces a lovely, huge stereo image. More Bias Curve Presets: Intensity 2 now sports a total of 22 Bias Curve Presets, up from 10. Redesigned, scalable UI: the UI is now fully vectorized, provides up to 200% of zoom, features a new help text system, and has generally been streamlined. Previous/Next/Load/Save Preset can now be controlled via MIDI for improved accessibility. Version 2 comes with dual activations, like all Zynaptiq's latest releases. Specifications Intensity 2 supports channel counts from mono to 16 for immersive workflows, and all common sampling rates from 44.1kHz to 192kHz, depending on available CPU resources. Stereo instances provide additional mid-only and side-only processing options. Intensity 2 runs as 64-bit AAX Native, AU, and VST 3. The plug-in supports macOS 10.15.x or newer, on Intel & Apple Silicon processors, and Windows 10 or newer. Intensity 2 uses PACE copy protection, requiring a free ilok.com account, and can be activated to the hard drive of your computer or an iLok 2 or newer USB dongle. Intensity 2 is single user/seat licensed, but allows dual activations for convenience.
