Kiive Audio releases KStrip - Modular Channel Strip Plugin

Kiive Audio has released KStrip, a plugin that takes three of the world's most popular large-format consoles and fuses them together to let you create the ultimate channel strip.

With a completely modular design, KStrip features the ability to choose between the three distinct circuits (A, N, S) for each of the individual modules (Comp, EQ, Saturation), for the ultimate flexibility across your entire mix.

Main Sections

Preamp Color/Harmonics

• A: Punchy, forward-mids and subtle grit - perfect for drums and guitars that need some extra attitude.
• N: Warm and rich tones with a world-renowned analog color, ideal for vocals and low-end focused instruments.
• S: Clean, detailed, and transparent (until you want more) —excellent for acoustic instruments, or getting aggression in a rock mix, a true work-horse preamp.

Equalizer

• A: Punchy, musical EQ that adds energy with bold, yet natural boosts. Ideal for giving drums or guitars more presence and thump without harshness.
• N: Smooth, musical EQ with broad curves that naturally sweeten any source. Perfect for gently shaping vocals, piano, or bass with rich lows and silky highs.
• S: Aggressive, precise EQ capable of surgical cuts and bold boosts for extreme moves. Great for giving drums more attack or dialing out mud from any source.

Dynamics

• A: Fast, punchy compressor that adds snap and keeps the energy high. Great for adding smack to drums or guitars, thanks to a quick response that keeps transients snappy and in-your-face.
• N: Smooth, vintage-style compressor that glues tracks together with rich, musical compression. Perfect for leveling vocals or bass with a gentle touch, while adding weight and cohesion without the pumping.
• S: Tight, transparent compressor that adds punch without muddying the source. Ideal for controlling peaks on everything from drums to the group tracks, providing glue and shine with minimal coloration.
