De-: Tone Tamer

Mixing is about balance—but sometimes, certain frequencies take over, and your mix starts to feel harsh, muddy, or boxed in. That’s where De- comes in: an all-in-one plugin designed to tackle common problem areas like sibilance, mud, and boxiness with precision and ease.

De- gives you control over:

• De-Esser: Tame harsh "S" sounds with Peak or Shelf modes, giving you flexibility to target exactly the problem area.
• De-Mud & De-Box: Dial in clarity by focusing on low-mid buildup and boxy resonances, using adjustable frequency controls for pinpoint accuracy.

With De-, you can:

• Select frequencies to target specific tonal issues (Mud, Box, Esse).
• Adjust the Threshold and Range to precisely control how much processing is applied.

Whether you’re polishing vocals, cleaning up a muddy mix, or giving your production that final professional touch, De- is your secret weapon for tonal balance.

Take control of your sound and say goodbye to harshness, mud, and boxiness—let De- handle the heavy lifting.

This audio plugin is currently in open beta, meaning it's freely available but still in testing phase. Due to Apple Gatekeeper restrictions, the plugin is not currently compatible with all OSX versions and Logic Pro. The main priority during this phase is to analyze plugin functionality and expand compatibility across operating systems.
To Avoid Apple Gatekeepers, copy your plugin in Components path:
/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/

and open your terminal:

sudo xattr -cr /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/De.componet

Apologies for any inconvenience to Apple users. Users are encouraged to stay updated on future releases as compatibility issues continue to be resolved.
