iZotope’s latest offering brings a new reverb to their growing software collection, and combines their popular Stratus and Symphony engines into a single plug-in that’s capable of tackling both music and post-production projects. Equinox supports an array of surround and immersive formats, and also promises to ensure clean-sounding mixes thanks to iZotope’s adaptive unmasking technology.
The plug-in relies on Exponential Audio’s renowned reverb algorithms, and is said to be a versatile processor that is equally well suited to music and post-production tasks. For music projects, it promises to add a realistic depth to instruments and vocals, as well as facilitating more experimental sounds thanks to its Tempo Sync and Tail Suppression parameters. As for post-production, iZotope say that Equinox can help mixers to naturally place dialogue within scenes, while its creative tools will be welcomed by sound designers.
