2. Tokyo Dawn Labs Plugin Lineup (Including Products on Sale)
Tokyo Dawn Labs develops the following plugins.
OD Finesse
OD Finesse is a professional-quality spectral resonance processor developed by mastering engineer Jan Ohlhorst. It is designed to musically tame excessive resonances and harsh peaks while preserving the naturalness of the sound and its transients.
The plugin is built around three main parameters: Depth (processing intensity), Timing (smoothness of the response) and Guard (protection of musical detail), enabling delicate tonal adjustments with simple controls. In addition, the ReTilt function keeps the tonal balance and loudness of the source intact even after spectral processing.
Its proprietary algorithm, based on minimum-phase filtering, removes unwanted resonances without damaging the phase relationships or transients of the original sound. The result is a more refined sound that maintains transparency and musical consistency in mastering and mixing.
Limiter 6 GE
TDR Limiter 6 GE is a modern dynamics compression and limiting toolkit. It covers a wide range of applications, from delicate loudness control to brutal brickwall limiting and creative mix bus crunch.
- Dynamics compressor
- Clipper
- High-frequency limiter
- Peak limiter
- Output protection limiter
- True peak and EBU loudness meters
Each of these modules is dedicated to controlling a different type of event, from macro to micro, and you can determine the signal path. Combined wisely, they can significantly increase the perceived loudness of a mix while maintaining excellent musical fidelity, punch and excitement.
TDR Molot GE
Molot, meaning “hammer” in Russian, is the name of a popular dynamic compressor released by Vladislav Goncharov in 2011. With a modernized concept, expanded flexibility and plenty of rock ‘n’ roll, Molot GE proudly carries on the work of its predecessor.
Molot GE is a particularly characterful dynamic range compressor that blends a classic compression mechanism with refined saturation, creative tone controls and a snappy peak limiter. Whether you need mellow leveling, tight dynamic control or aggressive compression, Molot GE covers a surprisingly wide range of compression colors.
TDR Kotelnikov GE
Kotelnikov GE is a wideband dynamics processor that combines high-fidelity dynamic range control with deep musical flexibility. As part of the TDR feedback compressor series, Kotelnikov directly inherits several unique features, including a proven control scheme, separate release controls for peak and RMS content, an intuitive user interface and powerful, state-of-the-art high-precision algorithms.
Kotelnikov has a sound signature described as “stealth,” allowing it to change the dynamic range dramatically while carefully preserving the original sound, timbre and punch of the music signal. This makes it ideal for stereo bus compression and other critical applications.
TDR SlickEQ M
TDR SlickEQ M (Mastering Edition) develops the proven concept of SlickEQ into a full-fledged stereophonic equalizer. Developed specifically for audio mastering engineers, it delivers exceptional musical flexibility and audio fidelity.
A set of musical high-pass and low-pass filters, including a low-frequency “mono-maker” section, provides detailed control over signal bandwidth. Six powerful parametric filter bands give precise access to harmonics, timbre and stereo image, while sophisticated meta filters provide direct, intuitive access to the brightness, hardness and equal-loudness curve of the audio signal.
All filters except HP and LP operate in a parallel EQ configuration. The EQ bands in particular contain elaborate nonlinearities inspired by the musically beneficial side effects found in inductor filter technology. An effective auto-gain mechanism automatically compensates for perceived loudness changes while you adjust the EQ. Semi-intelligent signal analysis options let you match the input signal spectrum against a pink noise reference or automatically set the HP and LP filters according to the audible bandwidth of the signal.
TDR VOS SlickEQ GE
TDR VOS SlickEQ – Gentleman’s Edition takes the SlickEQ concept further by adding an exotic tilt filter sandwiched between flexible low-pass and high-pass filters. Five different EQ models provide a rich set of predefined EQ curves and behaviors for the three main semi-parametric filter bands.
SlickEQ GE offers switchable EQ nonlinearities and seven different output stages. These options provide subtle and interesting textures, ranging from the typical “mojo” often found in high-quality analog audio equipment to more obvious saturation.
TDR Nova GE
Nova GE is a parallel dynamic equalizer. With the familiar layout of a parametric equalizer plus flexible dynamics processing options, it covers a surprisingly wide range of applications. Whether your master lacks density, your drum bus needs more clarity, or a perfect take has sibilance problems, NOVA has an elegant and musical answer.
NOVA GE features a total of six dynamic EQ bands, each with independent dynamics processing that supports downward compression, upward compression, upward expansion and downward expansion (including gating). Flanked by powerful high-pass and low-pass filters, this processor covers a wide range of tasks.

TDR Special Filters Series
TDR Special Filters currently consists of four specialized filter plugins, sold individually or as a bundle. The following products are included.
TDR Elliptical
TDR Elliptical specializes in controlling stereo width at low frequencies. The Elliptical filter operates on the stereo difference channel. It has important applications in disc mastering and wherever control over the amount of positional information in a mix is required.
Unlike traditional elliptical filters, this filter features continuously variable slopes, minimum and linear phase modes, and a dry mix control. Various compensation options, from a dynamic bump with harmonic generators to a Haas delay, let you creatively counteract the subjective energy loss caused by filtering and stereo-to-mono summing. A frequency analyzer that reveals stereo differences in the lowest frequencies down to DC is also included.
- Minimum phase and linear phase operation
- Continuously variable filter slopes
- Various filter energy compensation options
- Effective stereo-to-mono loss compensation
TDR Infrasonic
TDR Infrasonic addresses the mostly inaudible low-frequency region of a mix. This specialized filter operates in minimum phase and mixed phase modes and features continuously variable filter slope control, a dry mix option and exotic filter loss compensation methods. A dynamic bump mode and a set of harmonic generators allow the operator to creatively compensate for unwanted energy loss caused by filtering.
This plugin is an ideal choice when transferring material to media or environments with low spectral bandwidth, such as disc mastering, audio cassettes, analog broadcasting and P.A. systems. Its creative filter compensation options also make it a valuable tool for all conventional recording, mixing, restoration and mastering applications. The low-frequency spectrum analyzer gives a highly detailed view of the lowest range of the mix down to DC.
- Minimum phase and mixed phase operation
- Continuously variable filter slopes
- Various energy compensation options
- High-precision low-frequency spectrum analyzer
TDR Ultrasonic
TDR Ultrasonic is a filter designed to control the build-up of high-frequency content beyond the audible range in oversampled recording, processing and playback chains. The idea is to keep ultrasonics from hitting nonlinear systems.
Examples of nonlinear systems include peak limiters, creative distortion devices, compressors and other modulation. Analog capture devices such as tape recorders and disc cutting systems also exhibit nonlinear behavior, as do all playback systems.
The total distortion generated by a nonlinear system grows with the bandwidth of the incoming signal. This applies to both audible and inaudible content, and to the production as a whole: narrowband monophonic signals such as guitars and vocals can artistically handle large amounts of distortion, while a wideband mix can audibly fall apart with just a little saturation.
This is because nonlinearities generate not only harmonic distortion but also intermodulation distortion (IMD). IMD creates new partials at the sum and difference frequencies of the original partials. As a result, these new partials can land above or below the frequencies of the source, and the latter may end up in the audible band.
TDR Ultrasonic controls the same effect on a larger scale. It can losslessly reduce the amount of intermodulation distortion caused by ultrasonic content hitting nonlinear devices.
- Linear phase, continuously variable slope filter
- Ultrasonic gate
- Supports sample rates up to 20 MHz
TDR Arbiter
TDR Arbiter is a frequency-specific spectral balancer. Working independently of absolute level, this audio plugin is an ideal solution for a wide range of typical audio mixing, restoration and mastering challenges. Whether de-essing, attenuating plosives or fixing broad frequency balance issues, the level-independent nature of its algorithm lets you achieve musically convincing results smoothly and in the shortest time, and maintain them throughout the mix.
Filters can be specified as bell, flat-top or traditional shelving types. Maximum reduction range and reaction speed controls let you fine-tune the depth and timing of processing. A set of harmonic generators allows you to creatively compensate for losses caused by filtering, extending an almost transparent filtering process with useful sonic options. A wideband spectrum analyzer provides insight into the instantaneous filter magnitude and how it affects the signal from input to output.
- Musically convincing spectral balance control independent of absolute level
- Largely preserves the original dynamic structure
- Wide operating range
- Anti-aliased, ultra-low distortion algorithms
- Supports bell, flat-top, low shelf and high shelf types
- Per-band and wideband modes
