Essentials
BEVELBEVEL is an equaliser with 24 bands of ten shapes that you drag on a display, dynamic bands that can follow a span of frequencies, a side chain or each frequency on its own, and minimum, matched or linear phase.CLAMPCLAMP is a compressor with six voicings, a display you drag, a sidechain, look-ahead and a parallel mix.PLANEPLANE is a free resonance reducer that turns down the narrow peaks standing out of the sound around them, with protections for a note's partials and for the front of a hit, a weighting curve you drag and a display of what it takes out.LATCHLATCH is a gate and expander with a look-ahead, hysteresis and a filtered key you can listen to, with a display that draws the curve, the last five seconds and the gain taken off.SCRAPERSCRAPER is a de-esser that watches a band you place by frequency and Q and turns it down while it is over a threshold, with a display that draws the cut, the band's level and the reduction.CHARCHAR is a saturator with three curves, a drive you can see, tilt, a parallel mix, oversampling and level matching, with a display that draws what the curve does to a tone and which overtones it makes.TAPTAP is a stereo delay with three characters, stereo or ping-pong repeats, a time in milliseconds or in note values at the host's tempo, filters, drive and diffusion in the loop, a moving delay time, ducking, width and a freeze, with a display that draws every repeat.CASKCASK is a stereo reverb with six modes, a decay you set at 1 kHz and shape with two corners, early reflections from a box-shaped room, a gate, a freeze and a ducking control, and a display that draws what the reverb is doing.RIDGERIDGE is a look-ahead limiter with seven styles, a peak search between the samples, a soft clip, a loudness readout and a display of the last four seconds.CHESTCHEST is a rack of eight processors in an order you set by dragging, with a gate and expander, an equaliser, a compressor, a de-esser, a saturator, a delay, a reverb and a limiter, each with its own switch, its own panel and its own display.
Specialist tools
LATHELATHE is a vocal channel strip with fourteen modules in a fixed order, a display of the take stage by stage, and a key, LISTEN, that measures a take.VENEERVENEER is a channel strip with a gate, colour, four-band EQ, compressor, de-esser and output, whose colour can follow the playing.CHISELCHISEL turns the first milliseconds of a hit and the tail after it up or down separately, with no crossover, and can learn how a reference hit is shaped.WEDGEWEDGE turns a pad, guitar or keys down where the voice is, driven from the side chain and locked to the voice's own partials.SQUARESQUARE measures how late and how upside down a track is against a reference and lines it up by time, polarity and phase, following clock drift over a long recording.GAUGEGAUGE reads a song as it plays against your target and ceiling, and plays a reference back at your mix's loudness, section by section.LEVELLEVEL brings up to four sources to the same loudness and runs blind ABX and ranking tests between them.
