Arboretum Realizer - Best sound quality enhancement plug-in for Winamp ;)

Arboretum Realizer is a free real-time MP3 music enhancement plug-in for Winamp.It makes MP3s sound closer to CD quality, lets you hear better bass with your current speakers, improves the stereo image and lets you customize your internet music listening experience. Millions are using Nullsoft's Winamp to listen to music from the Internet, but MP3 files just don't sound as good as the original CD-quality recordings.People are often listening on inexpensive, low-quality speakers. We decided to use studio magic DSP technology originally designed for recording engineers to address these problems and improve the Internet listening experience.Realizer's three processing stages make the bass richer and deeper, add sparkle and vibrance to the high end and create a wider, more three dimensional stereo impression. Realizer does it all in real time, as the music plays. Unlike conventional equalizers and bass/treble controls, Realizer actually adds missing low end frequencies and synthesizes new harmonics, restoring much of what is lost to compression. Realizer combines Arboretum's proprietary Bass Maximizer, Harmonic Exciter and stereo enhancement algorithms - the same processes found in Arboretum's professional Hyperprism products - in a simple-to-use interface designed for personal music enjoyment. Realizer is completely user-configurable and includes a number of factory settings designed to bring the most out of each musical style. If you love this plug-in, you can purchase an improved version:Realizer Plus, for more details visit our site.Realizer is a trademark of Arboretum Systems.
