Oeksound has released Soothe3 promising significant improvements on its predecessor, Soothe2. Upgrades are available and there’s a grace period for anyone who’s recently purchased Soothe2.
Main Features:
New, improved algorithms
Soft mode: our most transparent resonance suppression, with an adaptive threshold. Ideal for most sound sources, works especially well with dynamic instruments.
Hard mode: in the style of Soothe2, with a fixed threshold. Ideal for more aggressive control and popular sidechain effects.
Low latency mode
In low latency mode Soothe3 adds zero samples of latency at base sample rates and ~1 ms at higher sample rates, enabling tracking and live applications.
Workflow improvements
Detail parameter combines Soothe2’s sharpness and selectivity under one control for more streamlined use.
More flexibility with nodes: Create or delete nodes, and choose between eight different band shapes – including bandpass and tilt – to make adjustments quickly.
Collapsible side panel: Keep essential controls at hand and more advanced settings out of the way when working fast.
More advanced controls
Multichannel support: Soothe3 supports up to 9.1.6 channel configurations with full control over the linking of channel sets.
Customize Soothe’s response with tilt controls: Scale detail, attack and release frequency-dependently.
Max cut parameter: Drive Soothe harder while keeping the biggest cuts in check.
Linear phase mode can be useful for parallel processing, or when using unlinked processing in mid-side to prevent changes in panning
