Seven decades. One switch.
The ERA-Suite arrives Friday 6 November: twelve mixing and mastering plug-ins built for the small room.
Most of us learned to mix in a small room. A bedroom, a closet, a corner of somebody's apartment. Never in the big room with the console, the outboard racks and the invoice to match.
The ERA-Suite is twelve mixing and mastering plug-ins built for that small room. Every one of them carries the same control: a decade switch. Turn it from '67 to '76 to '84, all the way to '26, and the plug-in doesn't load a preset. It changes how it behaves. The filter voicings, the saturation, the envelope timing and the noise floor move together, the way the gear of each era did.
What's in the suite
Shape it. ERA-EQ4B and ERA-EQ8B, four- and eight-band parametric EQs whose curves morph as the decade changes. ERA-FLTR, a modulated filter with one handle across the spectrum.
Control it. ERA-CMP, a channel compressor that learns where your material lives. ERA-DSR, a de-esser that finds the esses for you. ERA-XPG, an expander and gate. ERA-STPR, where every ratio button is a different compressor. ERA-DSM, a dynamic spectrum mapper that mixes toward a record you love.
Space it. ERA-RVB, seven decades of room. ERA-DLA, an echo timeline you drag.
Finish it. ERA-BUS, the glue on the mix bus. And ERA-MASTR, the flagship, where every era is a whole mastering chain, not a preset.
How we built it
Every plug-in screen in our videos is the real plug-in, captured with real audio running through it. Every before-and-after comes from one record, Choklat-Greedi, mixed in a small room. We'd rather show you the knob than tell you about it.
One investment. Updates for life.
The ERA-Suite is $119, one investment, all twelve plug-ins. No iLok, no dongle, no always-on internet. A licence key covers up to three machines you own, and commercial use is included.
VST3, AU and Standalone for macOS 11 or later, Apple silicon and Intel. Windows is in development.
