BBE Sound Sonic Sweet v4.5.0 Incl Patched and Keygen-R2R screenshot
Team R2R | 2023.06.29 | 13.4 MB
The BBE Sonic Sweet v4 plug-ins give you exactly the same brightness, clarity, and fullness as the hardware modules with the added bonus of being fully automatable. The "Sonic Sweet”" bundle consists of four amazing plug-ins that bring the legendary BBE Sound into your productions.

Sonic Maximizer

Musicians and studio engineers for years have known that the D82 Sonic Maximizer is the best way to get that professional sound and extra sparkle that is so difficult to capture.

Harmonic Maximizer

The H82 Harmonic Maximizer increases presence and clarity. It restores natural brightness and adds deeper and extended low frequencies. It can be used in the studio on individual tracks or an entire mix, or live to enhance the sound of a P.A. system.

Loudness Maximizer

The L82 Loudness Maximizer is a mixing and mastering multi-band limiter plug-in. Its ultimate transparency allows the L82 Loudness Maximizer to dramatically increase the overall level of your mix without audible artefacts and pumping effects.

Mach 3 Bass

As a new addition to the β€œSonic Sweet” lineup, Mach 3 Bass will take your low end to new sonic depths. Insert this plug-in on any type off bass instrument or signal where you need a big boost on the low end.

For what do you use it?

Sometimes is better than simple EQ. Is really useful to brighten sounds in a different way. Even in full masters can be used with caution.

These 4 plugins are the perfect example of how powerful an EQ could be, if you really learn how to use them. Screenshot

They advertised it as "Parallel Equalizer" which is exactly what it is.

// EDIT //
@Stevie Dude:
You do know you have to do harmonic distortion measurements to find out what it does, do you? Thats the one where you get k2 and k3 and that percentage thingy, you know, from back in the days.. valves, transistors...
You cant just dial in white noise and do an f-plot. that would look like it was an eq.
Because if it adds high frequencies that have not been in the signal before and you analyze that...it looks like... eeh, eeeh??
Thats what exciters do. Make more airband from the frequencies below.
while eqs amplify what's already there.
so what have we learned:
exciter: new treble
eq: louder treble
Tomorrow we learn how they do it and how to build one with dads homestereo.

quote by Plendixwhere you get k2 and k3


it's the screenshot from the Hammerstein test that does exactly that, except no nothing because nothing is there. Oversampled to 96kHz. If you have different method of measurement, prove it please. I'd love to know. Also I'm talking about the plugin being snake oil the hardware is different and I own a pedal version of Sonic Maximizer. It's different, night and day.

Oh OK, then I'm sorry that I've been so blunt about it.
That's a shame for BBE and they should take that one out of the product range.
Could you please do that analysis with the harmonic maximizer? That's the one I use from those four and I consider it being an exciter that adds something.
I'm pretty sure about this cause I use it often to fix things that are completely broken for reasons and lack airband.
It's dumb when companies bundle good products with snakeoil.

1. Harmonic Maximizer - Screenshot
- same behavior, just EQ shelves, no added stuff

2. Loudness Maximizer - Hammerstein Screenshot
- that looks like harmonics but it's just limiter distortion and it's artifacts.
- proof that there's limiting happening -> Loudness Max Limiting
- it's normal that loudness is gained by limiting, but that's just normal digital limiting, I bet DAW stock limiter can do this better with lower distortion.

3. Mach 3 Bass - Screenshot
- again same behavior, just a bell EQ boost at low end.
- Mach 3 Bass = gain, Freq Set = frequency, Response = Q control
- while one can argue 2 of the plugins have unique shelves curve to its own (it's not) this is just a simple bell boost, THE WORST!

If there's some weird under the hood shit using all-pass filter (or the phi filter) to lag the low end time domain and such, it will show on the Hammerstein test, this showing absolutely nothing under the hood. Check out TDR SlickEQ GE for more info.

People buying this type of plugin for the promise of there will be non-linearities included that couldn't be achieved with using just EQ but doing it like this is just abusing your popularity as a hardware maker.

I admit, I have used them because of the name without checking and they did give me results that I want until I started to compare with EQ and turns out they sound too similar and got me curious, so I did the test.

what do you think ?

Better alternatives : Ozone Exciter, Process Audio Sugar, Audiority Harmonic Maximizer, Waves Aphex Aural Exciter, Overloud Gem Dopamine, Audiothing Type A, B to name a few.

Superb info! I have to admit I used BBE for quite some time until my ears started telling me to wake up.

This community is many times more than just downloading stuff. Here is a great example. Thanks for sharing.

I did the same test and agree that Mach3Bass is a simple bell filter. Loudness Maximizer it's kinda different from a stock limiter, cause it's multiband (and it has also an unusual stereo spreader). I'm not a fan of mb limiters (and if I have to use one, I'm gonna use TR5 classic limiter), but it's not a normal one. For Sonic Maximizer and Harmonic Maximizer it's true that they don't generate harmonics, but I found theire curves (and their manipulation of phase) very difficult to replicate with EQ. And I also noticed that their noise floor is lower compared to Pro-Q 3. So they could be worth trying. Also on their site it isn't stated anywhere that they generate harmonics (I apologize in advance for my possibly bad english)

Ok, I've never been on their site. I put the harmonic maximizer into the exciter category because I used it for the same stuff I used to use aphex or behringers 19" exciter unit.
@ franksq98: What's the deal with the phase? A stereo widening?
I only use it on mono sources and as far as I know there the human ear has no sense for phase.
(but phase is of course an issue the moment other signals are added)
I need to feed an 1khz sine through and have a look at insight.
I definitely gave stuff some airband that had nothing above 7khz...
But it wouldnt be the first time my mind played tricks on me.

It's not stereowidening, but a very uncommon phase rotation, here's the phase plot in PD Screenshot (pink: D82; green: H82). I guess the Harmonic Maximizer works by "unmasking" and/or phase aligning fundamentals and overtones, but it could be placebo. Still I think they've got very unique EQ curves. Just that? Well, it's mainly the quality of the curves which makes EQ different from each other. So I think they're worth trying. I'm also interested in this concept of "phase aligning". Let me know if you find the H82 useful for this purpose

1. Every EQ move will introduce phase rotation because that's how it works. Here's screenshot of roughly matching the curve using pro-Q3. I didn't even try to match it, just do it under 10 seconds to prove my point but still got atleast 95% identical there. Screenshot of the phase rotation. The EQ shelves are really similar too, I didnt try to 100% match it at all.

2. nothing special about the "quality" of the curves and I've went through more than 100 EQs on plugin doctors. Just normal digital shelves. What suppose to be unique about curves isn't the curve itself, but the behavior of it while you boosting or cutting, which i found none on the BBE plugins. The behavior I meant, is how the Gain and Q interacts while boosting/cutting/overlaying. For that thing, you get " faster workflow" point even the curve can easily be matched.
- another worth mentioning unique curve is how the filters interact with each other, Parallel, Serial. Read about why Motown EQ still highly sought after until today.
- You could learn more about EQ topology by trying the MAAT thEQBlue and read the manuals.
- I assume you already know but check out how Pultec does it's curve too in this video. That's why it's legendary.

3. no such thing as unmasking or anything, I really checked thoroughly even loading Metaplugin inside PD to see the Mid/Side response. NONE whatsoever.

4. My point stands, about how EQ can be really powerful tool if you really learn to use it and understand everything that comes with it.

5. The hardware is an exciter, with audible added complex harmonics from the treble to the supersonic frequency range. It creates high end stuff even when used on bass that has no high end content at all. The plugin is just EQ. They should've name it something else.

6. You like the plugin, go ahead and use it.

@Stevie Dude. Thank you, that's extremely interesting. Please what software are you using to test? Is it Plugin Doctor?
