Baby Audio Baby Audio Smooth Operator Pro

The Definitive Clarity Tool

• Smooth Operator Pro removes the bloated frequency energy your tracks don’t need
• Achieve clarity in your mixes by eliminating mud, harsh resonances and masking
• Fix specific problem areas with surgical control or re-shape the tonal balance entirely

Instant Track Optimizer

We’ve engineered the new Pro version without compromising on the fast workflow that made Smooth Operator 1 so popular.

Set the desired target curve, then turn the global threshold knob until the plugin starts rebalancing your audio. Dive into deep settings optionally for total control.

Smooth Operator Pro removes fatiguing frequency energy as and where it occurs, improving your audio’s clarity. Dial it in gently and it will feel like lifting a blanket from your speakers.

Resonance Suppression 2.0

Where other spectral balancers offer global settings to affect the signal, Smooth Operator Pro brings unprecedented depth: Overwrite the global settings for any frequency node to set individual dynamic profiles across the spectrum.

Examples (within the same plugin instance)

• Target the left side at 7500 hz to fix a harsh cymbal.
• Address only the sides at 150 hz to clean up the bass.
• Tame a vocal at 2.5 khz with a softer compression profile.

Smooth(er) Operator

We’ve listened and learned. The all-new Pro version incorporates four years of user feedback since V1.

• Enhanced performance and sound quality
• Full control over all dynamic and imaging parameters
• Freely add and remove nodes across the spectrum
• Create individual dynamic processing profiles per node
• Two cutting-edge correction algorithms: Even and Skew

Presets By The World’s Top Engineers

Smooth Operator Pro ships with 184 presets created by some of the world’s most renowned engineers for use in their own sessions.

Preset creators include 30+ Grammy Nominee Craig Bauer, Max Jaeger (Ariana Grande, Drake, Diplo), Preston Reid (Chris Brown, Usher, Muni Long) and Ryan ‘Skinny’ Shanahan (Zedd, Lady Gaga).

A Pro-Level Spectral Workstation

Smooth Operator’s spectral processing manipulates each of the tiny particles that make up a signal individually – instead of the whole signal at once. By splitting a sound into individual components, we can rebalance harmonic material more effectively than traditional EQ and compression tools.

The plugin brings surgical control over your sound at the ‘DNA level’. Fixing problems is only the beginning: Use Smooth Operator Pro to dramatically re-shape the tonal balance with fewer side-effects and smoother results.
