SKnote has released Baz, a bass saturator, compressor and exciter plug-in.

Main features:
  • Frequency splitting (incoming audio is divided in low and high frequencies for separate processing and mixing).
  • Input boost with automatic output compensation (controls dynamics while keeping the output level constant).
  • Level based compression (multistage "full band" compression).
  • Spectral based selective compression (bass range is divided in bands and each band is limited to tame resonances often found in recorded bass).
  • Low band drive. Introduces harmonics to modify the sound or "translate" low frequencies to more suitable range.

Main uses on Bass are:
  • Taming resonances (spectral compression).
  • Leveling RMS and adding sustain (full band compression).
  • Translating frequencies from low to mid-low band (drive).
  • Sound processing and equalization.

Baz is available now for Windows as a VST plug-in and is priced at €79.
