Planar

The deal

$23.99 at KVR Marketplace (down from $29.99). Sale ends July 16, 2026.

What it is

Planar is an intelligent spectral equalizer plugin for Windows (VST3 and CLAP formats, with macOS, Linux, AU, and AAX support in development). It continuously analyzes your audio in real time and guides it toward a target frequency curve you define, making automatic corrections without imposing any preset opinion about what your mix should sound like. Unlike most smart EQ tools, Planar gives you complete control over the target response, so the plugin intelligence works for your sound rather than second-guessing your decisions.

Who it's for

Mix engineers and producers who want automated spectral balancing across multiple tracks without constant manual EQ adjustments. It fits naturally into dense sessions where maintaining consistent frequency balance across many tracks would otherwise require lots of repetitive EQ work.

Key features

• Intelligent real-time spectral balancing with extremely low CPU usage, designed to run comfortably across multiple tracks simultaneously
• Fully customizable target curve based on balanced pink noise response, giving you full control over what the plugin balances toward
• Adjustable correction speed and transient handling with threshold and knee controls to protect subtle sounds from over-correction
• Linear Phase and Minimum Phase modes with detailed visual feedback so you can see exactly what the plugin is doing
