Newfangled Audio Fixate:Midrange

[bnz]

It seems some shops are listing a new Newfangled Audio plugin Fixate:Midrange. Unfortunately not yet listed on the Newfangled or Eventide website and no demo yet as far as I can see, but Newfangled usually create very good plugins, so I presume this might be something interesting. Here is some information.

Fixate:Midrange
Intelligent midrange problem correction

Melody, harmony, texture, ambience... all fighting for space in the midrange, all causing problems. Fixate:Midrange clears the mud, tames the harshness, and restores balance to the busiest region of your mix. Just Analyze, Fix, and wonder why midrange was ever hard.

At a Glance:
Intelligent midrange problem detection
One-click Analyze + Fix workflow
Six targeted issue controls
Dynamic processing (only activates when needed)
Works on master bus, vocals, guitars, and more

Six Problems. Six Knobs. Zero Guesswork.

Fixate targets Mud, Thinness, Honk, Nasalness, Harshness, and Spectral Imbalance with dedicated processors that transparently tame problems to bring out punch and clarity. Analyze your track, press fix, and get fast, reliable results. Or to get hands on, follow visual hints which highlight problem areas across the plugin on knobs, meters, and throughout the interface.

Finding Balance.

Built for the master bus but flexible enough for any track, Fixate:Midrange works on vocals, guitars, synths, or any critical midrange source. The Balance section refines your overall tone while preserving character, so the result stays true to your sound, just cleaner and more controlled. Ideal for producers who want better mixes and engineers who want them faster.

Critical-band resonance detection modeled on human hearing

Price is a bit hefty.

Demo is available now: https://www.eventideaudio.com/demo/?pro ... 3AMidrange

Loyalty price seems to be the same as the intro price (at least for me).

[jules99]

Yeah, I own all NA plugins and some of Eventide's and loyalty pricing changes nothing. Maybe there will be Fixate: Bass and Fixate:High down the line with reduced prices

[jules99]

Crossgrade paths seem to be working now, it was $55.30 for me.

[mellotronaut]

my crossgrade price is 55.30$

maybe im using it wrong or my mixes are so well (with Ozone 12 i get more noticable adjustments) but it doesnt do much somehow, i tested 10 songs and it only did minor changes which sounded not bad but i wouldnt have noticed them if i woulnt have A/B'ed them carefully.

Ooo, a tad expensive for an upgrade.
