Description

The MixAssist Plugin equips the Sound Devices MixPre-3 with professional-grade automixing, making it easier to capture clean, balanced audio when using multiple microphones. Adapted from Sound Devices' 6-, 7-, and 8-Series recorders, MixAssist intelligently manages open mics by reducing background buildup and attenuating unused inputs, ensuring natural, polished dialogue.

Ideal for podcasts, interviews, and small multi-speaker setups, MixAssist provides smoother mixes straight from the recorder, reducing the need for heavy post-production. The plugin operates seamlessly within the MixPre-3, supporting 44.1, 47.952, 48, and 48.048 kHz sample rates at 24-bit or 32-bit float for high-quality recordings.
