HoRNet Plugins has announced the release of a free plugin that aims to capture the essence of vintage mixing console equalizers.

Emulating the 3-band semi-parametric EQ of classic mixers, TreBande aims to infuse your digital audio with nostalgic warmth and precision.

TreBande isn’t just an EQ; it’s a faithful reproduction of your average mixer’s EQ, meticulously crafted to mirror the sonic finesse and character of classic mixing consoles. This plugin, derived from the Equaliser section of our revered Cassette644 plugin, gives you the classic sound of that mixer channel, now refined into a standalone EQ.

TreBande features

  • Vintage EQ Reproduction: Faithfully emulates the three-band EQ of vintage mixing consoles.
  • Subtle Saturation and Warmth: Adds gentle saturation and warmth for a vintage vibe.
  • Authentic Hiss Simulation: Toggle on/off for authentic vintage hiss emulation.
  • Precise Control: High Shelf, Mid Band, and Low Shelf for comprehensive tonal shaping.
  • Adaptable Interface: Seamlessly adapts to dark and light mode settings across macOS and Windows platforms.

The plugin is free to download in VST/VST3, AU and AAX plugin formats for Windows and Mac.
