SPL Vitalizer MK2-T
SPL Vitalizer MK2-T is a VST audio plugin that emulates the hardware Stereo Vitalizer unit, a tube-based unmasking EQ used in mixing and mastering. It allows engineers to enhance perceived loudness and clarity, increase stereo width, and reveal overlapping frequency content without unnatural artifacts. The plugin uses psychoacoustic principles to balance frequency response according to human hearing. It is available in VST2, VST3, and AU formats from Plugin Alliance, typically integrated into digital audio workstations like Logic Pro, Pro Tools, Studio One, and Ableton Live.
