Knif Audio-Plugin Alliance Soma 1.3.1

The first passive tube EQ with "Real Q Adjustment" taking out the guesswork
Despite their wonderful sound, old school passive EQs have their shortcomings as well. Changing the bandwidth control on a conventional passive EQ will cause you to inadvertently increase or reduce the amount of boost or cut you are applying, leading to unexpected changes in your EQ curve. The Soma EQ finally solves this problem by adding "Real Q Adjustment". A first in the world of passive tube EQs, it allows for much more predictability and precision than any other EQ of its type.

Sophisticated and flexible color for discerning ears
While classic passive tube EQs like the Pultec and Massive Passive are celebrated for their warmth, saturation and character, there is such a thing as "too much of a good thing". Sometimes the tone of these beautiful EQs can be excessive for a given track, forcing a mastering engineer to choose a totally different type of tool for the task. The Soma EQ offers a slightly cleaner and more subtle tone by default, with the option to drive it harder for additional warmth, making it one of the most adaptable processors of its kind.

Now with new features only possible in the digital domain
The plugin version of Knif's Soma takes a high end analog EQ and updates it with extra features only possible in the digital domain. It is now easier than ever to increase or decrease the drive applied at the input and output stages to dial in just the right amount of analog goodness. The engineers at Brainworx have added indispensable tools for mastering, including a mono maker, stereo width control, and additional options for TMT.
