- Genre shaping: In pop/electronic, higher settings (tastefully automated) add modern sheen; in acoustic/folk, tiny doses preserve authenticity while making the vocal more present.
Digital EQs, by contrast, are linear. If you boost 15kHz by 6dB on a digital EQ, you get exactly 6dB of boost. If the vocal has a harsh spike at 10kHz, you just made it 6dB harsher. Fresh Air behaves like an analog circuit. It applies dynamic saturation. slate digital fresh air
