Smile v5.00 - Equal Loudness Contour Tilt Filter

Smile v5.00 - Equal Loudness Contour Tilt Filter
Noisebud Smile v5 – Equal Loudness Contours Tilt Filter

Smile started out as a Fletcher-Munson-based de-harser, designed to naturally shape your spectrum and remove harsh elements without hurting the mix. From version 5 and onwards, it has evolved into a full-blown equal loudness contours tilt filter, merging the plugins Smile and Fletchy-Muncher into one. That means you still get the subtle ear-friendly de-harshing from earlier versions, but can now also test for harshness or add clarity and sparkle to a dull mix.

The filter is no longer just approximated. Each position of the main knob is now mapped to an actual phon-based loudness curve, based on the latest ISO 226:2003 standard. This makes Smile more precise, natural, and musical than ever before.
