The ERA plugin bundle by Accusonus brings you a group of plugin tools that let you quickly repair audio under an easy-to-use graphic user interface.

At first, it is easy to see how most of the plugins included in the ERA’s bundle are very simple to use since they are designed under a single-knob operation philosophy.
In the case of the Voice AutoEQ, this plugin can turn the difficult and time consuming task of speech equalization into an effortless and creative process. It can be used on vocals for music purposes or voice-over work.
The specific parameters are:
- A/B Switch: This switch lets you toggle between configuration A and configuration B to easily test and A/B their differences.
- ON/OFF Switch: This switch lets you toggle the plugin ON/OFF. When it is set to OFF, the plugin is completely bypassed.
- Output gain: This slider controls the gain applied to the output of the processor.
- Blending Triangle: This is the main processing parameter of the plugin. Each corner of the triangle represents a tonal preset, fine tuned to enhance different aspects of a voice. You can simply click and drag within the triangle to adapt your voice to any of these tonal characteristics. The closer you are to one of these edges, the more pronounced this tonal character will be.
- Intensity: This slider lets you control the overall EQ amount applied to your signal.
For the purpose of this tutorial we will use the plugin to add AIR and a touch of clarity to the vocals. The parameters will be:
- A/B Switch: A.
- ON/OFF Switch: ON.
- Output gain: 0 dB.
- Intensity: 4.9
6. Apply the previous configurations and the plugin will look like this:
After we playback the track, the voice definitively was Auto-EQ’d and now has more Air and Clarity!
