GE-1 Gravity Engine

GE-1 Gravity Engine.

Bass and kick fight for the same low-end space. Push the bass and the kick disappears; carve the bass and the groove loses weight. GE-1 solves both problems from a single control — a tilt EQ pivoting on the exact frequency your bass lives at, with automatic kick-triggered ducking underneath.

Hit LEARN and play a short phrase — the way you actually play. GE-1 analyses your bass in real time, finds the pivot frequency from its spectral centroid, and configures the sub-cut high-pass, side-chain threshold and ratio, gain reference, and kick phase alignment automatically. From there, a single Gravity knob tilts the low and high bands around the pivot — clockwise for weight, counter-clockwise for definition — while spectral ducking keeps the bass and kick out of each other's way.

Underneath the auto-analysis engine sits a clean tilt EQ with full manual control, a bass-presence-gated ducking engine that only carves where bass energy is actually present, and true-peak-safe output limiting. Multi-kick aggregation (up to four kicks per group, four groups total) and a dual side-chain path (DAW bus or shared-memory from a separate kick instance) let it slot into any bass/kick routing.

Built specifically for bass and low-frequency instruments, GE-1 brings a producer's low-end intuition into a plugin that sets itself up in seconds.

Features:

• LEARN — play a phrase, let GE-1 set pivot, sub-cut, ducking, and kick phase.
• Gravity — one knob tilts low and high bands around the pivot (up to ±25 dB).
• Pivot / Slope — 20–500 Hz pivot, adjustable shelf slope.
• Spectral ducking with bass-presence gating.
• Multi-kick aggregation: up to 4 kicks per group, 4 independent groups.
• Dual side-chain routing: DAW bus or shared-memory from separate kick instance.
• Sub Cut high-pass (20–100 Hz) with click-free crossfade.
• 4x oversampled true-peak safety limiter.
• Latency-compensated bypass.
• Real-time analyzer overlaying input, output, EQ curve, and kick spectrum.
• VST3 + AU | Windows & macOS (Universal Binary).

Applications:

• Bass guitar sitting cleanly with a kick drum.
• Sub-heavy productions where kick and 808 overlap.
• Live bass tracks with variable low-end energy.
• Mixing sessions where the low end feels muddy or unfocused.

A 3-day free trial is available in-plugin when you sign in with an AIDE AUDIO account. All features are unrestricted during the trial, so you can evaluate GE-1 on real material before purchasing.
