A head response plug-in that recreates the experience of studio monitors when working on headphones, reducing unnatural sound and ear fatigue.

At its core is a head response model that mimics the effect of your head on the sound of loudspeakers. Stereo processing with adjustable Haas effect avoids the typical hard-panned headphone sound, complemented by a spectrum analyser, EQ, a stereo field visualiser and an impulse response loader for recreating your favourite mixing room and compensating your headphones. Re-Head will not replace your studio monitors, but it makes the transition from speakers to headphones less dramatic, whether tracking, working away from your studio or late at night.
