HitStrip

HitStrip is the most versatile and powerful channel strip plugin available today. Designed by Grammy-winning producer and mix engineer DJ Swivel, HitStrip redefines how modern producers and engineers will shape their sound. With 9 effect modules, 3 EQ styles, over 61,000 strip combinations, combined with a slick single page intuitive user interface, very low CPU usage, and presets recreated from some of the biggest hit records ever, HitStrip has solved all 3 of the major problems with most modern channel strips:

1. Great sounding: We've meticulously crafted HitStrip to not only match but surpass the best EQ's and channel strips available. Understanding that producers and engineers rely on familiar tools, we prioritized delivering exceptional sound quality to truly stand out in a competitive field.
2. Intuitive: Any great channel strip should offer a single-page UI with no complex menus or module loading. HitStrip is designed for ease of use across multiple tracks, with a layout that fosters muscle memory. By incorporating familiar design cues from top EQs, we've spent 3 years refining it to seamlessly handle the added complexity of channel strip functions.
3. Low CPU Usage: Your channel strip will likely be your most-used plugin, so it must be low CPU to avoid limitations. In a head-to-head comparison with popular channel strip Neutron, attempting to load 50 instances of each product into a session, HitStrip completed the task in just 7 seconds, while Neutron took roughly 6 minutes and eventually crashed the session.

Dynamic, Transient & Tonal EQ's

• Dynamic EQ: Adjusts specific frequency bands in real-time based on the level of the audio signal, allowing for more precise, responsive control over tonal balance and dynamics.
• Transient EQ: Focuses on shaping the attack of your audio signal, allowing users to enhance or reduce the impact of transients. This EQ features a transient length control and enables workflows that support not only mixing, but also mastering.
• Tonal EQ: The inverse of our transient EQ, the Tonal EQ focuses on shaping the sustain of your audio signal, allowing users to enhance or reduce the non-transient signal. This EQ also features a length control, ideal for dialing in your drum tones without deeply impacting the dynamics.

Color Your Sound

Color: Breathe life and warmth into your tracks, transforming flat audio into vibrant, rich, and even gritty tones with our finely tuned saturation control. This module was designed to introduce that warm subtle distortion that producers often aim for when polishing their tracks.
