FIXATE:MIDRANGE
Intelligent Midrange EQ
MIDRANGE PROBLEMS, SOLVED
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.
SIX PROBLEMS. SIX KNOBS. ZERO GUESSWORK.
Mud. Thinness. Honk. Nasalness. Harshness. Spectral Imbalance.
Fixate:Midrange targets the six most common midrange issues, each with a dedicated intelligent processor. Every correction is dynamic and signal-dependent, activating only when a problem is detected.
ANALYZE.
FIX.
Two steps to a polished midrange:
Fixate listens to your track, finds the problems, and fixes them with one click.
No tweaking, no guessing, no deep menu diving. Just results.

SOLUTION.
FIND
BALANCE.
Your mix has a sound. Fixate keeps it.
The Balance section preserves character while refining the tone for professional results.
The result isn’t a different mix, it’s your mix, polished.
NOT JUST FOR MASTERING
Fixate:Midrange was built for the master bus, but it doesn’t stop there.
Apply the same intelligent correction to individual tracks with dedicated profiles for vocals, guitars, and more.
Clean up a vocal mix. Tame an unruly guitar bus. Fix dialog.
Ella - Oceans
Fixate:Midrange opens up the low mids on this downtempo electronic track. This allows the bass to sit better and the whole mix to be more inviting. The profiles give two slightly different feels, but each solves the low mid congestion.

Miguel Pinheiro Marques
(Mocky, Dora Morelenbaum, Della)
“Fixate:Midrange is really fast for mastering, sometimes it feels like cheating.”

TECHNOLOGY
Fixate:Midrange is built on a model of human hearing. The plug-in divides the midrange into critical bands (frequency regions where your ear groups sound together) and analyzes energy within each band relative to its neighbors. This is how your ears actually detect resonances, and it's why Fixate catches problems that conventional spectrum analyzers miss. The result is processing that feels natural and sounds musical, because it's working the way your hearing does.
