In this video I’m showing the latest Polarity MD update and the new features I added to my free OTT-style multiband compressor and clipper. The biggest change is the new native GUI, which is much faster, sharper and more responsive than before. I also added crossover slope control, optional linear-phase crossovers, and a new Pro Mode with per-band clip thresholds plus individual attack and release settings. Polarity MD is still completely free, with no subscription, no telemetry and no activation. It runs on Windows, macOS and Linux. Let me know what you think and what I should improve next.
