Features

  • Use five bands to creatively change the sound of your mix by replacing existing parts with synth sounds
  • Blend the original sound in with a subtle synthesizer sine wave or get aggressive by pushing into a mean square wave!
  • Easily set the channel bands by dragging the sliders on the chromatic bar
  • Set how fast a band follows the material using the slow or fast response toggle
  • Set a low number of voices for a real reduced sound or go up to 8 voices for a high resolution digital version of your track
