Smarter resonance suppression & frequency unmasking
- Description
Description
paragraph: Curves Equator is a smarter resonance suppression plugin. It immediately improves any full mix, vocal, instrument or sample by removing problematic frequencies, fixing resonances and balancing inconsistencies.
,
paragraph: Additionally, it can learn your content & safeguard your work with a personalized suppression curve to avoid overprocessing. It offers groundbreaking frequency unmasking by learning the sidechain of a clashing source and dynamically applying the inverse curve on the part you’re mixing.
,
paragraph: Equator is the first in our new Curves Spectral Series of plugins, which pioneers the evolution of EQ. Two more Curves plugins will be available in early 2025: Welcome to your first self-driving EQs!

heading: Fix the Bad Stuff,
paragraph: Most sources have some issues. Just because they’re being masked by your room, your speakers, or other instruments, it doesn’t mean they’re not there.
,
paragraph: This is why we made Equator. Simply bring the Equator line down – you’ll hear the blanket lifted off your mix.
,
heading: Safeguard the Good Stuff,
paragraph: Most other solutions are one-size-fits-all. They process your sound via a generic average curve, often harming the unique sound you created.
,
paragraph: By ‘Learning’ your audio, Equator gives you a personalized suppression curve, protecting against anomalies and imbalances and avoiding overprocessing.
,
paragraph: TIP: Use Learn to capture a healthy part of your audio as a template. Equator will then process the rest of the signal to match it.
,
heading: Everything in its Right Place,
paragraph: ‘Learning’ via sidechain can create some truly magical results in your mix, where sources will no longer clash in the same frequencies.
,
paragraph: If the vocals are most important, you can ‘SC Learn’ the vocal curve and apply its inverse shape on the instrument bus to carve perfect space for both.
,
paragraph: TIP: When using the Rider feature for dynamic carving, the louder the SC audio, the more carving occurs.
,
heading: Choose Your Flavor of Balanced,
paragraph: Some problems are objective, and we fix all those. But some are subjective, and not everyone has the same idea of balanced.
,
paragraph: That’s why we have the Shape & Tilt controls, which adjust the target for the processing according to your taste.
,
heading: Same Energy, Better Sound,
paragraph: Resonance suppression using regular or dynamic EQ can quickly kill the vibe by overprocessing the problem areas.
,
paragraph: Equator has a unique Dynamic Auto Makeup Gain feature which matches the input RMS by boosting the volume of the frequencies you don’t attenuate. This can be toggled on/off.
,
heading: Advanced Control,
paragraph: There’s no shortage of additional features under the hood including 4 customizable processing bands, 8 nodes and a host of parameters for tweaking.
