Released in 2016, the original soothe was billed as an “automatic dynamic frequency notcher” designed to effortlessly eliminate harshness and overly bright top end in any instrumental or vocal signal. It scored 8/10 in our review ( 239), where we praised its uncanny ability to transparently suppress uncomfortable mid-high resonances - as long as its application was driven by judgement and mixing experience.
