Avid Collaborates with oeksound to Deliver Game-Changing In-Studio Sound Quality to Live Sound
April 10 2023 - 10:21AM
Avid® (Nasdaq: AVID) today announced the
integration of oeksound’s Soothe Live mixing plug-in available
exclusively on Avid’s VENUE | S6L™ platform, alleviating
common challenges and offering greater sound quality for live sound
mixing. Designed with unprecedented reliability and response,
Soothe Live is trusted by professionals worldwide for its ability
to deliver the sound they want for live events night after night,
regardless of venue size, layout, or difficult acoustics.
Soothe Live was built to address common problems in mixing live
sound, such as overly bright instruments, proximity effect in
vocals, muddiness and instrument bleed. It removes extreme
harshness, calms unwanted resonances and sibilance, controls bleed
from instruments and helps achieve tonal balance across the
frequency spectrum. Soothe Live reduces unwanted frequencies in
real time, letting engineers focus on delivering extremely
high-quality live sound mixes.
“Turning Soothe into a live plug-in has always been our goal,
and we’re thrilled that our vision has come to fruition with the
Avid VENUE | S6L platform as its host,” said Olli Erik Keskinen,
Founder of oeksound. “Together we’ve succeeded in bringing the
industry a solution that addresses users’ fundamental challenges in
live audio and mixing.”
Ashton Parsons, sound engineer (Cage The Elephant, Disturbed,
Alice Cooper, Lil Durk) added, “Soothe for S6L gives me all the
help in the world when it comes to taming a cupped vocal, a gnarly
guitar amp, an uneven bassist, or just 'soothing' my overall mix.
Soothe Live has become indispensable for me.”
Soothe Live was rearchitected to suit the VENUE | S6L live sound
environment with an intuitive and responsive user interface
optimized for the S6L system. It can also be used in the Pro Tools®
environment with an HDX card. Equipped with ultra-low latency and
touch screen usability, its parameters have been designed
specifically for live mixing and are mapped to favor standard
settings and common use cases. Sound engineers can interact with
Soothe Live in a way that best fits their workflows, using knobs on
the control surface, a mouse, or the touch screen.
“The intelligent nature of the Soothe Live plug-in will no doubt
usher in a new era in live sound,” said Robb Allan Sr. Principal
Product Manager, Live Sound, Avid. “Its ability to identify
problematic resonances and apply forensic reduction without
supervision is a game-changer for the live sound industry. We’re
excited to continue our work with oeksound and to deliver
best-in-class offerings to the live sound community.”
Avid is thrilled to offer all Avid VENUE | S6L owners on a
current support contract, a free one year authorization of Soothe
Live and will be extending this offer to new S6L users in 2023.
