Shape Vocals, Instruments, and MixesGive vocal recordings a steadier presence and bring uneven instrumental performances under control. Process drums, bass, guitars, or keyboards to help each part sit in your arrangement.

Work on individual tracks or apply processing across a complete mix. Build a restrained sound for quieter material or push toward a more compressed character for energetic productions.

Add Tube Character and Shape AttackTube Driver saturation adds warmth and harmonic color to your recordings. Adjust the drive to move from subtle coloration toward a more distorted texture.

Choose Center detection for a more assertive attack that brings a source forward. Select Stereo detection for a softer response on material such as synths or stereo acoustic guitars.

Process Audio Inside Your DAWUse VST or AAX in a compatible Windows host, or AU, VST, or AAX on Mac OS X. Insert the plugin into your DAW’s signal chain to process audio within the session.

Save your own settings as named presets for later projects. Recall them as starting points when you return to a familiar instrument or recording setup.
