Three-Body Technology UNMASK: A Psychoacoustic Dynamic EQ
A powerful and intuitive tool for mixing.
“You are about to experience the awe and mystery…” Three-Body Technology UNMASK is a dynamic EQ plugin that uses psychoacoustic principles.
While Three-Body Technology may sound like a malevolent corporation from an episode of The Outer Limits, the company seems to be on a never-ending quest to provide innovation in a flooded plugin market.

So, if Three-Body already has the Kirchhoff EQ, you’re probably wondering why they’ve developed another similar EQ processor. Well, in comparison, UNMASK is a far simpler and more specialized tool. To improve the tonal balance and overall clarity of a signal, UNMASK uses continuous analysis and applies corrective processing in real time.
The processing engine acts upon three different sonic aspects with independent spectral, temporal, and tonal controls. Each one of these modules has a depth control, which lets you adjust the processing amount. With the SPEC module, you can reveal obscured details within a signal. Its intuitive detection engine reads the transients that are masking an area and adjusts both aspects simultaneously.
This process is continuous and dynamic, so it will follow a performance and let it breathe within a dense mix. Meanwhile, with the TILT module, you can reshape and balance a signal tonally through the analysis of the spectral envelope. This process can be as subtle or as drastic as you like, with different slope settings that help with the reshaping.

Also, the TIME module can reinforce the parts of a signal that happen just after the transient, which are being overshadowed. In addition, the EXT Glue function allows you to use an external sidechain signal to help an element stand out better in a mix. Overall, UNMASK presents extremely complex processing concepts in a way that is both practical and fun to use.
