Detect the collision
Clear compares the host and sidechain signals in real time to identify where they are masking one another.

CLEAR.
A focused VST built to clean up your sound and keep your mix moving. No price tag—just help spread the word.
Make room without losing energy
What Clear does.
Clear listens to a sidechain signal, finds the frequencies competing with your main sound, and dynamically reduces only that overlap. The result is more separation, definition, and headroom without carving permanent holes into your mix.
Create space dynamically
It applies responsive spectral ducking only where—and when—the competing signal needs room.
Keep the mix natural
Shape the timing, target a frequency range, then blend the processed signal with the original.
Simple controls. Precise results.
How it works.
