preFIX is a pre-mixing and audio alignment tool which typically takes place upfront the mixing process.

It provides a clever tool-set to clean-up, fix and align audio tracks (typically taken from recordings) concerning overall frequency correction, phase alignment, spatial stereo field corrections and routing. It contains a complete gate/expander solution with a dedicated and comprehensive sidechain filtering path as well.
