Software Compatibility

Most software is compatible with both Mac and Windows computers, but check to make sure.

If you're using Pro Tools, AAX plug-ins (or RTAS for older versions) are what you need. Most other Mac DAWs support AU plug-ins. VST is compatible with a number of Mac and Windows programs. Be sure you choose plug-ins that work with your DAW!

A Next-gen Swiss Army Knife Filtering Tool

UVI’s Shade is a powerful creative plug-in with unlimited sound design potential. It combines 35 filter shapes with nine modulator types, supplying you with an endless array of sound-shaping tools and mind-bending effects. A configurable semi-modular system enables you to drag and drop modulation onto any parameter with one-to-many and many-to-one routing, cross-modulation, and muting. You also get envelope followers with sidechain and filter inputs and multiple-segment envelope generators, plus triggerable envelopes that can sync to your DAW, audio, or MIDI. Comprehensive multichannel support rounds out Shade’s impressive features. Shade is a next-gen Swiss Army knife filtering tool, delivering everything from traditional EQing and filtering to creative, out-of-this-world effects.

Note: This product requires that you have an iLok account for authorization, although it does not require a physical iLok key. Please call your Sweetwater Sales Engineer if you have questions.

35 filter shapes range from subtle to insane

UVI’s Shade is jam-packed with 35 unique filter shapes that range from digital to analog to something else entirely. With these filters, you can make transparent adjustments, tame unwieldy resonances, or create hardware-modeled warmth. Shade’s resonant filters boast discrete Q-Up and Q-Down controls, and all shelf and peak shapes provide continuous slopes up to 2,000dB/octave. At Sweetwater, we’ve used Shade’s filters to make subtle frequency adjustments, unleash resonant cacophony, and yield everything in between. You can create nonlinear phase-shifted sounds, craft weird notched-out textures, or even completely decimate a track — it’s a lot of fun!

Nine modulator types offer endless sound design possibilities

As cool as Shade’s filters can be, it’s this plug-in’s modulation system that really takes it over the top. There are nine modulator types lurking inside, providing you with a host of sound design possibilities. You can target all of Shade’s parameters with one-to-many and many-to-one routing, cross-modulation, and muting. And it’s a breeze to navigate, thanks to its double-click show/hide and click-drag rearrangement functions. There’s no limit to what you can create with Shade. It’s a powerful creative filter and EQ plug-in!
