Elevate
Elevate is an advanced mastering plugin that combines a multi-band limiter, human-ear EQ, and audio maximizer to enhance the loudness of your mix while preserving or improving its dynamic perception. It utilizes intelligent, adaptive technology that responds in real-time to your music, ensuring not only increased loudness but also superior sound quality. The adaptive limiter analyzes 26 frequency bands, adjusting gain, speed, and transients for each band in real time, resulting in a transparent and natural sound, regardless of the applied gain. Elevate's EQ is modeled on the human ear, with 26 critical filter bands spaced to provide maximum control over how the sound interacts with your eardrum. This design allows for precise manipulation of transient attacks for individual instruments, such as kick or snare drums. The plugin also includes a spectral clipper to overdrive the final output without affecting tonal balance or introducing unwanted artifacts.

Haaze 2
The upgraded Haaze v2 from Klevgrand is an elegant solution for controlling stereo width and spatially positioning a sound in a stereo mix. Regular L-R panning is a weak tool that doesn't resemble real-world acoustics, which becomes clear when trying to place a mono sound naturally in a stereo mix (especially on headphones). The result still feels very "mono". Haaze is an audio plugin that makes the positioning feel more natural, understandable and pleasant for the ears. It splits the audio signal into 16 frequency bands. On each band, you can delay the left or right signal (which will make the listener believe the sound arrives from the side that’s reaching the ear first), pan it to the left or right, or adjust the overall width on that band (for example, make the lower frequencies more focused in the middle than the higher). Haaze can also diffuse a mono signal and make it wider. If this sounds complicated.
