Sonalksis has released TBK3 Über Compressor, the third plug-in in the Creative Elements range, and like the other TBK plug-ins it has the same simple one knob interface and is fully loaded with exploding sound mangling processing and features.
Beneath its simple interface lies a radical analogue modelled compressor that can be pushed much further and harder than you ever imagined possible! In essence the TBK3 is analogue compression taken to the extreme.
Features
- Extreme analogue-modelled compression algorithm
- Optional ‘true analogue noise’ colouration
- Four selectable fully adaptive attack/release modes
- Modifiable side-chain filter character
- 64bit floating point precision internal processing throughout
- Ultra efficient processing, with specific optimisations for native processors
- Zero latency throughput – absolutely no internal signal delay whatsoever
TBK3 is available for Windows (VST/RTAS) and Mac OSX (VST/AU/UB/RTAS) and costs $149.99 USD/119.99 EUR.

Sonalksis has updated FreeG to version 1.08.
FreeG is an intuitive tool that can be used for a variety of applications to increase the control and flexibility of the signal flow in the insert chain of the host.
Updated in v1.08
- fixes and improvements in functionality
A quick guide (.pdf format) is available explaining all the features of FreeG.
You’ll need to be a registered user (free registration) to download FreeG.
FreeG is available as VST and RTAS for both Windows and Mac OSX, and AU format for Mac OSX as well.

Sonalksis has recently launced their latest product, the Sonalksis SV-719.
The Sonalksis SV-719 is an analogue-modelled dynamics processor developed for professional audio applications. In keeping with the other plug-ins in the Sonalksis ‘SV’ series, it employs unique design methods to provide a gate/expander with true ‘Analogue’ characteristics
Now this one doesn’t come cheap (currently USD 259.99/EUR 209.99), but it according to Sonalksis the SV-719 is the most extensively featured gate/expander available. Aside from all the standard gate parameters, it features external side-chain inputs, multiple band side-chain filtering, midi triggering capability, and independent left/right channel triggering possibilities. In addition, a hybrid analogue/digital signal chain path allows look-ahead processing if required.
Additional features
- Separate gate and expander models, with soft or hard-knee expansion capability
- Ducking capability – a mechanism often used in voiceover production, but which can also be used creatively for example to de-emphasize effects which might cloud a mix when there’s too much going on
- Zero latency throughput – enables the gate to be used in the monitor path for tracking situations
- Sonalksis ‘State-space’ physical model design for true analogue response
- 64bit floating point precision internal processing throughout
- Support for sampling rates of up to 192 kHz
- Ultra efficient processing, with specific optimisations for all native processors
- Support for most native plug-in formats on OS X and Windows
A fully functional 30-day demo is available for download.

Sonalksis has released TBK, the world’s first ‘Adaptive Resonance’ filter – an entirely new generation of filter that automatically adapts filter resonance and saturation characteristics according to a psychoacoustic model.
‘Adaptive Resonance’ is the technology in the Sonalksis TBK that controls the interaction between frequency, resonance and circuit saturation with respect to this psychoacoustic model, in order to give an improved sonic aesthetic in any circumstances.
Features
- Adaptive Resonance Technology with adaptive saturation algorithm
- Four available ‘modes’ of adaptive resonance
- Multi-mode filter response types
- High quality, analogue-modelled minimum phase filters
- 64bit floating point precision internal processing throughout
- Ultra efficient processing, with specific optimisations for native processors
- Zero latency throughput – absolutely no internal signal delay whatsoever
