TENSHIN-2
Adaptive tilt EQLean the whole spectral balance around one pivot, darker or brighter in a single move. A dynamic corridor keeps the bands the tilt pushes out of line in check, without undoing the tilt itself.

Pick an example track or upload your own, then turn the pivot and tilt. You hear and see the tilt change the balance.
- 01PivotPick the frequency the tilt turns around.
- 02TiltLean the balance up or down. SLOPE sets how wide the turn is.
- 03DensityUPPER and LOWER form a corridor. Peaks the tilt lifts too far get caught, thin bands get lifted.
Operated exactly like the plugin: drag up and down on knobs, Cmd/Ctrl for fine, double-click to reset (twice: back to the previous value), drag the pivot, slope diamonds and corridor squares in the analyzer. The sound is a simplified browser rebuild; your file stays on your device.
In detail
Tilt
FREQUENCY sets the pivot anywhere from 40 Hz to 12 kHz. TILT raises one side of it and lowers the other by up to 12 dB. SLOPE sets how wide the turn is, from about seven octaves down to under two.
At TILT 0 the whole plugin passes audio through unchanged.
Corridor
24 detector bands compare each region with its own surroundings. On the boosted side, DYN catches peaks that rise more than UPPER above them. On the lowered side, LOWER lifts bands that dip below their surroundings, by up to 6 dB.
DENSITY sets how tight the corridor is. Up to 50 % it tightens the lines; above that, band compression fades in. A broad tilt is never compressed away, only what sticks out of it.
Colour
SATURATION adds even and odd harmonics, mainly on the boosted side, 4× oversampled and gain-matched. The LOW and HIGH pads set per side how much goes to compression or saturation, and how fast each side reacts.
Workflow
HP and LP edge filters (12, 24 or 48 dB/oct, or shelf), input and output trim, AUTO GAIN loudness match, A/B snapshots, factory and user presets, importable DSP tunings, dark and light theme.
