Hornet Plugins have released Hornet ZeroBus, available for €24.99.
HoRNet ZeroBus is an intelligent plugin designed to automatically balance spectral content and apply bus compression to individual tracks, addressing common mixing issues like muddy low-end and harsh mids that arise when tracks hit the mix bus.
The plugin features a continuous automatic equalization across 31 bands that analyzes and balances the audio spectrum in real-time, offering instant tonal correction without manual frequency hunting or endless sweeping.
ZeroBus includes two compression modes, FAT and GLUE, which intelligently adapt threshold, makeup gain, and processing based on the audio material to achieve either parallel punch reminiscent of an 1176 or cohesive mix binding similar to an SSL.
By simply loading ZeroBus onto a mix bus or subgroup and starting playback, the AutoEQ corrects the spectrum immediately, while the compressor learns the material’s dynamics within seconds, allowing users to select a mode and adjust equalization and compression levels for professional polish in a fraction of the time.
Features include:
- 31-BAND AUTO EQ – Continuous spectral analysis and correction that keeps your frequency balance in check without manual intervention.
- INTELLIGENT LEARNING – The compressor analyzes your material’s RMS and peak levels to automatically set optimal threshold and makeup gain.
- DUAL COMPRESSION MODES –
- FAT: Parallel 1176-style targeting ~19dB GR
- GLUE: Serial SSL-style targeting ~9dB GR
- VISUAL FEEDBACK – Real-time EQ curve display and segmented gain reduction meter (0 to -20dB) for precise monitoring.
- AUTO OVERSAMPLING – Automatic 2× oversampling below 88.2kHz for pristine audio quality with minimal latency.
- ADAPTIVE UI – Light/Dark/Auto themes that follow your system preferences. Clean, brutalist interface that stays out of your way.
Hornet ZeroBus is available to PC and Mac users (VST3, AU and AAX).
