Expand, gate, and duck signals easily

Give your mix more energy while eliminating noise with the Pro Expander AAX plugin, a unique high-quality expander that features SMART technology—and delivers exceptional sound quality and DSP efficiency. A sibling to the Pro Compressor, Pro Expander is based on the Avid Channel Strip plugin, which emulates the coveted dynamics characteristics of the renowned Avid System 5 console. Pro Expander goes even further, enabling you to quickly expand, gate, and duck signals with the utmost precision.

Pro Expander offers a wide range of easy-to-use features and improvements that go way beyond what you can do with the Avid Channel Strip plugin, plus some unique features not found in the Pro Compressor. Plus, Pro Expander is AAX DSP optimized, so you can handle massive Pro Tools | HDX mixes with ease.

Pro Expander is included in the Avid Complete Plugin Bundle, which is also included with all Pro Tools Ultimate subscriptions and 1-Year Software Updates + Support Plans.
