Neutron 5
Neutron 5 is an AI-assisted audio mixing plugin suite with EQ, compression, masking, phase, clipping, and other mix-processing tools.
Neutron 5 helps music producers, engineers, and editors shape tracks inside compatible digital audio workstations. It includes 11 plugins, including Mix Assistant, Clipper, Density, Phase, Unmask, Sculptor, Equalizer, Compressor, Exciter, Gate, and Transient Shaper.
It runs as AU, VST3, or AAX software on supported Mac and Windows systems rather than as a standalone DAW. A free trial is available, while the full product is sold as a one-time purchase; bundle products cost extra.
