One plugin instead of a whole rack.

Audio Forensix is a 24-band dynamic and spectral EQ with multiband saturation, an echo for any EQ band, a tape machine with double tracking and a rotary cabinet, a mastering compressor you can see and shape, and a modulation system that reaches right into the bands. Six modules, one window, laid out in the order your sound flows.

The Audio Forensix EQ page with five bands, one of them dynamic
01 EQ

A precision dynamic EQ.

Up to 24 bands with bells, shelves, notches, band pass, tilt, and cuts up to 96 dB per octave. Drag a dot to shape the sound, and every band shows its own glowing curve on the analyzer.

  • Zero Latency, Natural Phase or Linear Phase
  • Any band can go dynamic or fully spectral, with sidechain
  • Stereo, left, right, mid or side on every band
  • EQ Match learns a reference and adds the bands for you
  • Clean, Subtle or Warm analog character, Auto Gain and Scale
EQ page
The difference

Effects that live on the bands.

Most of these tools don't sit on top of your whole mix. Any EQ band can have its own dynamics, its own echo, its own stereo placement and its own modulation. Echo just the snare's crack, tame just the harsh note, widen just the air.

One EQ band with its own dynamics, echo and stereo placement
02 Saturation

Multiband saturation, 17 styles.

Split the sound into up to six bands, drop the crossovers anywhere, and give each slice its own character, from warm tubes and tape to transformers, classic consoles, fuzz and bit crush.

  • Three console styles: Brit Console, US Punch, Brit Desk 70s
  • Drive, Dynamics, Tone, Feedback, Mix and Level per band
  • Up to 8x oversampling for clean heavy distortion
Saturation page with four bands
03 Delay

An echo for any EQ band.

Give an 800 Hz bell an echo and only the 800 Hz area repeats. Your dry sound is never cut, and there's a full-mix echo too.

  • Tempo-synced from 1/32 to a bar, or free time in ms
  • Feedback, Tone, Duck, Level and Spread per echo
  • Ping-pong between the speakers
Delay page with an echo on two bands
04 Tape

Tape, double tracking and a rotary speaker.

A reel-to-reel machine at 7.5, 15 or 30 ips with head bump, bias, high-frequency loss and real wow and flutter. Underneath it, a double tracker (ADT) and a full rotary speaker cabinet.

  • Double the whole track, or just one frequency band
  • Rotary with Stop, Slow and Fast that spin up and down
  • Swirl just the doubled copy, or everything
Tape page with the double tracker and rotary
05 Compressor

A mastering compressor you can see and shape.

Drag the transfer curve's handles to set threshold, knee and ratio, bend the curve itself, and add an expander underneath. Then watch every decibel in the Gain Scope, with a built-in test tone.

  • Attack and release shapes: Smooth, Linear, Punchy, S-Curve
  • Feed-forward or feedback detection, sidechain filter, lookahead
  • Drive, Makeup, Stereo Link and parallel Mix
Compressor page with the transfer curve and Gain Scope
06 Modulation

Make the whole EQ move.

Four sources (LFOs, envelope followers and random) and eight routes that reach any band's frequency, gain or Q, any saturation band, the crossovers, the echoes, the tape, the compressor and the output.

  • LFO shapes with tempo sync, triplets and dotted notes
  • Envelope follower on the input or the sidechain
  • Positive or negative amounts; the EQ curve moves live
