Smart equalization for effortless mixing
Balance takes the guesswork out of EQ adjustments by intelligently shaping your audio to match a target frequency curve. It works like a match EQ but is as easy to handle as a tilt EQ, giving you precise control over your sound with just a few adjustments. Whether you need to place a source cleanly in the mix, enhance clarity, or fine-tune the overall balance of a track, Balance makes it fast and intuitive. Simply adjust the target curve and let the plug-in handle the rest.
Optimised filtering with low CPU impact
Balance features custom-engineered minimum-phase filtering, designed for pristine sound quality while keeping CPU load low. With just three samples of latency, it integrates seamlessly into any production workflow without causing delays or performance issues. The included low-cut and high-cut filters (12dB per octave) help further shape your mix, making it easy to control unwanted frequencies without introducing artefacts.
Supports immersive and multichannel audio
With support for up to 16 channels, Balance is built for modern production needs, from stereo to immersive formats like Dolby Atmos. Whether you’re working on music, film, or game audio, it ensures each element sits perfectly in the mix. The wet gain control also scales with the EQ amount, helping to maintain consistent loudness across adjustments.
Intuitive interface with real-time feedback
Balance’s scalable, vectorized UI adapts to your workflow, whether you prefer a compact EASY view or a detailed analyser display. Real-time visual feedback makes it easy to see how the EQ is shaping your sound. With Metal and Direct3D acceleration, the interface runs smoothly, ensuring a responsive experience even in demanding sessions.
