Overview
soothe2 is a dynamic resonance suppressor designed to automatically identify and reduce problematic resonances in audio signals. It excels at smoothing uneven tonal balances, managing sibilance in vocals, and clearing muddiness without affecting the original timbre. The algorithm adapts in real-time, applying reduction only where and when needed, thus preserving the clarity of the audio. It supports mid/side and left/right processing, along with external sidechain input for spectral ducking. Its primary value proposition lies in its ability to save audio engineers time by automating the tedious process of manually notching out resonant frequencies, improving workflow and enabling faster mixing and mastering.
