OneMove Keel

OneMove Keel is a perceptual unmasking EQ plug-in in development at OneMove Audio. It is designed to rebalance a sound continuously, turning down what crowds it and lifting what is buried, and to make room for a voice. OneMove Keel is a working name and may change.

What will it do?

When two parts share the same frequencies, the louder one hides the quieter one. That is masking. An unmasking EQ listens to the whole spectrum and keeps adjusting it, instead of holding one fixed curve.

How does it relate to OneMove Vocal Console?

OneMove Vocal Console works on the voice. Keel is a separate plug-in for what surrounds it, such as a music bus or a mix. It is planned to listen to the vocal over Key Link, and to turn the music down only in the voice's own frequency bands, and only while the voice is there.

Which desktop tools do this job?

On desktop computers, this kind of processing is best known from Soundtheory Gullfoss. We name it only so you know the category. OneMove Keel is our own design, and we have published no comparison with it. When we do, it will be on our comparisons page, with the method.
