Smooth Operator is an intelligent spectral EQ that automatically tames resonances in your audio in realtime. A great tool for mellowing out harsh recordings and kind of balancing the frequency spectrum. Adjust the EQ curve with 4 nodes and threshold control.
In my demonstration today I’m using many instances of Smooth Operator in normal and sidechain modes to process various music loops in a mix.

My voice for this video and some other recent videos are also processed through Smooth Operator and I expect I’ll have this as part of my dialogue chain going forward.
