THE ESSENTIAL WORKFLOW SIMPLIFIER
THE UTIL is a powerful, multi-purpose control plugin designed to streamline the music production process, whether you're working on individual tracks, group busses, or the final stereo master. We bring essential controls—including gain compensation, stereo width, phase inversion, and panning—together in one clean interface.
IT'S ALL ABOUT THAT (MONO) BASS!
THE UTIL features an intelligent Bass Control function that allows producers to instantly convert sub-frequency signals into perfect mono, ensuring a solid, focused low-end that translates flawlessly across all playback systems.
Simplify. Control. Finish.
Use THE UTIL to separate your creative automation from your static mix balancing. This allows you to apply surgical volume, width, and pan changes while keeping your main track fader purely for overall level control. • Clean up a cluttered worklow by separating channel strip & plug-in Gain/Pan • Add or Reduce Stereo Width from a Signal for cleaner mixes • Keep your Low End tight by making sub bass content mono
