Finesse
Spectral resonance processor
Static EQ doesn't know which notes are the problem. Cut 3 dB at 200 Hz to tame one boomy chord and every other chord on the piano gets thinner too. Finesse only acts on the bands that misbehave. Only as long as the problem persists.
Many simultaneous bands processed through minimum-phase filtering — surgical at any frequency, transient response intact. Three curves (Depth, Timing, Guard) shape exactly how the processor responds across the spectrum: tighter timing on cymbals, slower on bass, deeper cuts on persistent resonances. Independent of input level — set it on the bus and it works on every track that passes through.
Features
Dynamic, not static
Detects resonances relative to the music. Acts only on what stands out — the rest of your tone passes through.
Frequency-dependent timing
Fast on harsh highs, slow on bass body. One static setting can't do both. Finesse can.
No fixed crossovers
Many bands processed simultaneously. Surgical at any frequency.
Minimum-phase
Preserves transients. Drums stay tight, vocals stay forward.
ReTilt
Automatic spectral balance and loudness compensation. What you crafted goes through unchanged — minus what stood out.
Sidechain & Delta
External sidechain for cross-spectrum work. Delta lets you hear exactly what Finesse removes.
What users say
“This sounds SOOOOOOO good! Despite one video reviewer's comment, I'd urge anyone to demo, it's not difficult to grasp. Just have a little patience and listen carefully. The delta function really helps. As has been mentioned, Finesse clears up a mix while respecting the music. Wonderful stuff!” — TheTruffleKing
“In a mastering context Finesse is in a league of its own as a transparent demasking tool. With complex material Finesse unveils important and complimentary details that dramatically improve the overall impact and listening experience.” — Simon Morrison
“Well … THIS plugin is better for treating resonances on a 'master' than any others I own!!! […] With the proper settings, it will not suck the soul/mojo out of the recording, but it polishes the same. BRAVO to this product!!!!” — cefshah
“Man this is amazing, instantly bought after trial. Super clean and without the usual spectral artifacts from plugins of this kind. Well tuned for complex material.” — FoodProduct
“Tried for 15 minutes, then purchased. Very impressive! […] this can do things, I can't do with other plugins.” — DotRob
“It definitely gives better results and is less taxing to think through than my previous combo […].” — badmark
“Like a busy army of de-edgers turning your hot mess of a backyard into garden of the year.” — badmark
