What People Are Saying

Real feedback from singer-songwriters using Saelin in their workflow.

"

Shine is especially handy if you’re a singer-songwriter or producer who doesn’t want to spend an evening tweaking EQ, saturation, and de-essing to find the sweet spot.

I installed it and put it on a vocal track. Instantly, I got a sheen i have never heard before. I’m excited. I think you’ve got something amazing here.

Three Characters. One System.

Smooth is a suite of three adaptive characters — each designed for a specific moment in your recording.

Intimate

Dusk For the quiet moments

Warm, close, personal. Designed for singer-songwriters and soft vocals. Controlled proximity, smooth top-end, forgiving on plosives.

Close vocalsLow room treatmentEmotional delivery

"I want to sing quietly and feel close without harshness."

Natural

Grain For the honest sound

True, uncolored, organic. Built for acoustic guitar and natural recordings. Fast transients, balanced body, minimal hype.

Acoustic guitarAmericana / FolkNatural capture

"I want it to sound like me in the room, not a demo."

Forward

Flare For the moment you need to be heard

Present, punchy, cuts through. For choruses and energy. Forward presence, tight low end, defined transients.

ChorusesEnergy momentsMix presence

"My vocal gets lost in the mix — I need it to sit on top."

Not a Mic Model. A Mic Behavior.

Most plugins are static. They sound the same no matter how you perform.

Smooth listens to how you're performing — not just what — and adapts in real time. Singing quietly? Smooth enhances proximity warmth. Building to a chorus? Smooth adds sparkle and tightens transients.

Smooth adjusts to you. You just perform.

Common Questions

How is Smooth different from Shine?

Shine adds clarity. Smooth shapes character.

Shine is a single adaptive tool for adding presence and air — perfect for quick clarity fixes. Smooth gives you three full mic characters (Dusk, Grain, Flare), each with deeper adaptive processing for shaping tone, intimacy, and energy. They work beautifully together: Shine on the way in for clarity, Smooth for character.

What do I need to run Smooth?

Smooth is a macOS plugin (Big Sur 11 or later).

Runs inside a DAW like Logic Pro, GarageBand, Ableton, or Reaper. Windows support is on the roadmap and based on demand.

Do I use Smooth while recording or after?

Both work, but recording is where it shines.

Smooth adapts in real time to how you're performing. Using it while recording captures the adaptation as you sing — distance, intensity, character. You can also process existing tracks through it, but the real magic is the live response.

Will I still need EQ and compression after?

Often less. Sometimes none.

Smooth handles the reactive work engineers usually do:

  • Proximity management
  • Dynamic tone shifts
  • Harshness vs intimacy balance

You can still shape creatively in the mix — but you're no longer fixing problems caused by the recording itself.

What if it's not for me?

14-day money-back guarantee.

Try Smooth on your own recordings for two weeks. If it's not the right fit, just email us. Full refund, no questions, no hassle. We'd rather have you happy than hold onto a sale.
