The TDR Nova GE Black Friday deal takes 51% off Tokyo Dawn Labs' parallel dynamic equalizer plugin, so it costs $29 until Nov 19, 2026.
Nova GE looks like a regular parametric EQ. Underneath, each band can also run its own dynamics processing, which is what makes it a dynamic EQ rather than a static one.
The plugin has six dynamic EQ bands. Every band has independent dynamics, and the modes run from downward compression through upward compression and upward expansion to downward expansion, gating included.
Highpass and lowpass filters sit on either end of the bands. The maker lists these use-cases:
The maker pitches it at problems like a master that lacks density, a drum bus that needs more crispiness, or sibilance in an otherwise perfect take.
You get a drag and drop display that shows what you are changing, plus a classic knob interface for the same parameters. Use whichever is quicker for the move you are making.
A "Smart Operation" panel handles automating and orchestrating the plugin. The maker says it covers spectral matching, resonance removal and more.
Equal loudness functions are built in. They let you judge a setting without being fooled by level changes, so you hear the EQ move and not just a louder signal.
The usual TDR workflow helpers are here too:
On Windows, you need Win XP SP2 or above. Formats are VST2 and VST3 in 32-bit and 64-bit, and AAX in 64-bit only.
On Mac, you need macOS 10.9 or above. Formats are VST2, VST3, AU and AAX, all 64-bit only.
If you want one EQ that can sit as a static parametric on one track and as a frequency-selective compressor on the next, that is the range this plugin is built to cover.
Yes. The TDR Nova GE Black Friday deal takes 51% off, bringing the plugin to $29, and it runs until Nov 19, 2026. It is Tokyo Dawn Labs' parallel dynamic equalizer with six dynamic EQ bands.
Six dynamic EQ bands, each with independent dynamics processing, plus highpass and lowpass filters. You also get the Smart Operation panel, equal loudness functions, a preset manager, undo/redo, A/B, copy and paste, and detailed documentation.
On Windows it comes as VST2 and VST3 in 32-bit and 64-bit, and as AAX in 64-bit only. On Mac it comes as VST2, VST3, AU and AAX, all 64-bit only.
Each band can do downward compression, upward compression, upward expansion or downward expansion, including gating. That covers dynamic EQ, frequency selective compression and expansion, multiband work, and wideband compression or expansion.
