AYAIC Dragon Fader 是一款由音频软件开发商 Ayaic 推出的高端 LUFS 电平调整（Leveler）插件，旨在以极度透明和自然的方式自动“抚平”或“控制”（ride）任意音频信号的响度。
非 AI 驱动：与当今大量依赖云端或预测性人工智能（AI）的现代电平器不同，Ayaic 秉持其一贯的数学、物理与心理声学设计理念，拒绝预测性 AI。Dragon Fader 采用极其透明的压缩器/扩展器架构，在赋予用户完全控制权的同时，实现自然流畅的动态平衡。
超越传统压缩：它不仅具备高级的侧链（Sidechain）功能，还能进行精准的电平塑形（level-shaping），远超标准压缩器的常规表现。
兼容性与格式：支持 AAX、AU、VST2 和 VST3 插件格式，需通过 iLok（USB Key、iLok Cloud 或 iLok Manager）进行授权。

Dragon Fader is a premium LUFS leveler designed to beautifully “ride” any audio signal. While modern levelers rely on AI, Dragon Fader uses one of the most transparent compressor/expanders ever created to deliver flawless, natural results—while keeping you in complete control. Packed full of advanced features and powerful side-chain capabilities, it goes far beyond standard compression to give you total creative freedom over your level-shaping.
Whether you are a Producer, Mix/Mastering Engineer, Musician or Singer/Songwriter, the Dragon Fader will help you shape your audio levels around a target LUFS.
Automatically adjusts gain to meet target LUFS (Loudness Units Full Scale) while preserving the dynamic character of the source.
Uses a highly transparent design to avoid coloration, ensuring the processed audio sounds as close as possible to the original.
Offers powerful side-chain options for creative ducking, expansion, and dynamic shaping beyond standard compression.
Goes far beyond basic compression, allowing you to sculpt dynamics in ways that suit your artistic vision.
Delivers smooth, musical level changes without the harshness or unnatural compression often found in AI-driven tools.
Four modes: FREE, INT, WRITE and READ. INT analyses the source file of the track in advance.
Target from -50 to -10 LUFS, measured to BS.1770. Fader range from -20 to +30 dB.
True peak brickwall limiter, four times oversampled and checked against a sixteen-fold reference. No extra headroom needed.
Seven Level Planes, shared by every instance. Quick Set picks one with a click.
The same latency in every mode, so your DAW never rebuilds when you switch.
106 factory presets. Stereo or mono, sidechain mono or stereo.
Dragon Fader is ideal for mastering engineers, producers, and mixers who want to automate loudness compliance while maintaining dynamic integrity and creative freedom. In short, it combines precision loudness automation with musical, transparent dynamics control, making it a strong choice for professional audio workflows where natural sound quality is paramount.
