MATASHI

A subtle finishing texture for your bus.

Your mix is 99% there. MATASHI adds the last 1% — presence, warmth, and character, without changing what already works. Like seasoning in cooking: you don't taste the salt, you taste a better dish.

Three Flavors

Leave it on. Forget it's there.
Your mix will thank you.

`AJI` controls how much seasoning you want. MATASHI is designed to stay musical, even when you push it.

SHIO

The lightest touch. Clean, airy texture that adds presence and a gentle high-end shimmer. The kind of difference you feel but can't quite name.

DASHI

Rich and warm. Brings out body and midrange depth with a smooth top end. The kind of weight that makes vocals sit and guitars breathe.

YAKI

The boldest flavor. Richer harmonics and a more defined feel, while naturally rounding off harshness. More color, still refined.

Hear the difference

Honest comparisons.

Only the harmonic difference is mixed, so your original signal stays intact underneath. `AUTO GAIN` compensates for perceived loudness changes in real time, so your comparisons are fair.

Master bus (SHIO) — Subtle lift, smoother edges
Drum bus (YAKI) — Defined transients, bite
Vocal bus (DASHI) — Intimate warmth
