iZotope Mobius Filter
Mobius Filter is an AAX audio plugin from iZotope that creates infinitely ascending or descending filter sweeps based on the Shepard tone auditory illusion. It is used within Avid Pro Tools and other compatible DAWs to add movement and emotion to music production through perpetually rising or falling filter effects while maintaining full-frequency bandwidth. The plugin offers controls for sweep speed, resonance, stereo width, and host tempo synchronisation, making it popular for creating filter swells, psychedelic effects, and spatial movement across vocals, instruments and full mixes.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionMobius Filter is an AAX plugin hosted within Pro Tools, not a standalone application. To update it to a native Apple Silicon build, you must first ensure Pro Tools itself is running on a native build (version 2023.6 or later), as plugin compatibility depends entirely on the host. Check your Pro Tools version by opening Pro Tools and navigating to Pro Tools → About Pro Tools. If you are on an older build, update Pro Tools through the Avid Application Manager (the official Avid update tool). Once Pro Tools is on a native build, Mobius Filter and other AAX plugins will be updated as part of that update. iZotope plugins are distributed and updated through the iZotope Product Portal or the vendor's own installer — visit izotope.com to download the latest version of Mobius Filter compatible with your Pro Tools build. If you are currently running Pro Tools under Rosetta 2, both the host and this plugin will stop working entirely when Apple removes Rosetta in macOS 28 (September 2028), so updating to a native Pro Tools build is critical.
