@@Sigorzav_Mixing my best audio choices were soothe2, spiff and getting a plugin alliance subscription.
İ find this to make vocals a bit hollow use it very carefully. Very very little like no more than 15 or 20 . Sooth 2 is so much more pro in every aspect. Oversampling in ultra setting. Mid side options. And its for every sound not just vocals. And its smooth it doesnt take away the colour of your sound. Good time to buy it now if its in your budget of coarse.

This is exactly what I've been searching for, thank you Wave's. Thank you for making this video, much appreciated.
The Smoother is also available now, which is said to be a less subtle version of Soothe 2, but at a fraction of the cost. I also think RESRES may be better for resonance removal at low cost.
Loving it so far.. Now trying to find a place for it in the template!
Listened to the voices through my phone, but I'm not sure specially the male vocal, sounds better. It's really important to rely on your ears with this kind of tools.

Yah 100%. I talk about that towards the end of the video. You gotta be careful with all these dynamics plugins cause they can suck the life out of a performance.
Cool review, thanks Matty.
soothe killer already exists: DSEQ3
I thought I was done with waves but this plugin worked better for me than soothe2
Sounds great to me it makes removing harsh sounds super easy if u did smooth op or soothe 2 it would take longer than a view clicks on silk
Where should I put this plugin in a vocaL chain ? Thanks for the review.

Depends on how you use it. If you’re using it to cut out a lot of low end then def use it before compressor.
I don’t have Soothe 2, so I’ll definitely pick this up. Thx!
Probably still use Soothe for stdio projects but definitely try this out of for my broadcast mix template. Can't hurt to try getting the free license.
why are so many youtubers promoting this thing? it's like all the pumpers have been called on mass.. what's up with all the marketing?

I found the male voice was too thin after processing and upper mids were annoying.
also because soothe is now a live plugin for avid hardware live show applications waves had to step in
This is like that Josh Gudwin Plugin not comparable to Soothe
The vocals in your project suffer from s-es you would be better off de-essing also you have probably put a high shelf on the vocals before using it with silk vocal didn't you? From what is see this plugin is nice and it could save people a whole lot of something, but it is by no means a sooth 2 killer. Waves are known for top end plugins but also for re-using modules in their engine and they did it with silk vocal i quess.

@@mixedbymatty yeah, I had issues right around the time you mentioned it, but it got better for me a few weeks later. I love the macros in this DAW. Close to 30 of my favorite plugins are on a hotkey and I'm living that life lol. Only thing that annoys me about version 6 is the plugin pin behavior and that you cannot permanently disable "stretch files to song tempo". They really messed that up. They took so many nifty options away from the new song window I had to go back to 5 despite the awesome workflow improvements of 6.
Might be a good Plugin but i am denying downloading any waves plugins ever again. I hate this company

Calling this a Soothe 2 killer is pure clickbait.
its not even the same thing as sooth2 or the new up coming soothe 3, and besides its already cracked and out
Should say free for 1 year. Subscriptions for plugs are about as stupid as leasing a car.
You look like the Austrian rapper money boy
This plug-in more like advance fresh air but not Soothe
the most anoying thing about the headline is that it isn't free at all
