A five-plugin bundle for mixing and sound design, featuring equalization, compression, reverb, and visual analysis tools with a vintage-inspired interface.
Equalization and Dynamics
The EQ30 is a stereo equalizer with two complete 30-band 1/3-octave sections, modeled on the Alesis M-EQ 230. It allows precise boost or cut across the spectrum for corrective or creative tone shaping. The vintage rack-style GUI with 3D raytraced elements enhances the user experience, making it suitable for detailed frequency work in mixing or mastering.
NightShine is a compressor based on the Alesis 3630 peak compressor. It features a threshold range from -inf dB to 0.0 dB, an exponential response curve, and gain depth from 0% to 100%. Automake-up gain, softclip, and limiter switches simplify setup, allowing quick level control and peak management without manual adjustments, ideal for vocals, drums, or full mixes.
Reverb and Visual Analysis
Schroeder Reverb is a digital reverb effect based on algorithms developed by Manfred Schroeder in the 1960s. It adds depth, dimensionality, and natural ambience to recordings, producing a wide range of reverb types from subtle room tone to expansive spaces. This versatility makes it suitable across genres, from intimate acoustic tracks to large cinematic soundscapes.
Scope is a two-axis oscilloscope that visualizes waveform amplitude over time, with time on the horizontal axis and amplitude on the vertical. It assists in dynamics processing and sound synthesis by providing a visual representation. Typically placed last in the signal chain to analyze cumulative plugin effects, it can also be inserted anywhere to inspect the signal at a specific point.
ThrillMe 3 Multiband Compression
ThrillMe 3 is a multiband compressor with four independent dynamic bands, designed for precision control. Its DSP algorithms deliver warm, punchy compression. A Lock control enables simultaneous adjustments across all bands, while adaptive crossover filtering ensures clear frequency separation. Individual band soloing allows for focused sound sculpting, and sophisticated metering provides real-time gain reduction monitoring.
Customizable parameters include solo, threshold, attack, release, and make-up gain for each band. This level of control makes ThrillMe 3 ideal for audio engineers, musicians, and sound designers who need detailed dynamic management. It can be used for mastering, mixing, or creative sound design, offering flexibility for complex material.
ThrillMe 2 and Bundle Workflow
ThrillMe 2 is a combination compressor, limiter, and spectral enhancer in one unit. It adds warmth and depth to audio while maintaining cleanliness and crispness, serving as a versatile tool for both tracking and mixing. Its unique design allows for transparent dynamics control with enhanced tonal character, suitable for a variety of sources from individual tracks to full mixes.
A typical workflow using the bundle might involve EQ30 for surgical frequency correction, NightShine for level control, and ThrillMe 3 for multiband dynamics shaping. Schroeder Reverb adds space and depth, while Scope verifies the final signal visually. This cohesive set covers the entire mixing chain, from initial tone shaping to final monitoring.
