Neo TUBE
One plug-in to finish the mix — an oversampled triode tube, six loudness targets for wherever the track is going, and Neo AI Remaster that listens to the song and undoes the squash and hiss.
No subscription, no account. The trial is the full plug-in for 14 days — after that it keeps running in demo mode until you add a key.

One tube, oversampled
An asymmetric triode curve, 4× oversampled and run 12 dB below full scale, so loud masters saturate instead of clipping. Input drives it, Warmth pre-emphasises, Drive and Bias shape the harmonics, Mix blends it back.
It's the glow of a 12AX7 on your master bus — without the heat.

Mastered for where it's going
Six targets, each a full chain voiced for its destination — its own loudness goal, EQ, mono-bass and a true-peak-safe limiter. Pick where the track is headed; Neo TUBE lands it there.

The six targets, in full
CD · INSTAGRAM · RADIO · VINYL · CLUB · STREAMINGCD
Flat and transparent. Gentle 1.5:1 glue, a −10.5 LUFS goal and a −0.3 dB ceiling. The honest master.
Voiced for the phone speaker: high-pass at 70 Hz, +2.5 dB presence, a touch of air, mono bass. 2:1 glue, −9.5 LUFS, −1 dB ceiling so the encoder never clips.
RADIO
Broadcast-dense. High-pass at 45 Hz, mid-forward at 1.8 kHz, 3:1 glue. −10.5 LUFS, −1 dB ceiling.
VINYL
Warm and cutter-friendly: +2 dB low shelf, −3 dB at 10 kHz, mono bass. Light 1.5:1 glue, −13 LUFS, −0.5 dB ceiling.
CLUB
+3 dB sub shelf, tight and loud. 2:1 glue, −9 LUFS, −0.3 dB ceiling.
STREAMING
Flat and conservative for the −14 LUFS platforms. 1.5:1 glue, −14 LUFS, −1 dB ceiling — nothing for the normalizer to undo.
Every target runs the same chain, voiced for where the track is going: WARMTH pre-emphasis → the tube stage (asymmetric triode curve, 4× oversampled, running 12 dB below full scale so loud masters saturate instead of clipping) → mode EQ and mono-bass → a stereo-linked glue compressor → loudness makeup → a 3 ms lookahead brickwall limiter with program-dependent release and a true-peak margin under the ceiling → MIX.
It undoes the AI sound
AI-generated and over-limited tracks share the same tells: drums squashed flat, a hiss floor under everything, a fizzy fake top. Flip NEO AI REMASTER and Neo TUBE listens in 3-second windows, lets the loudest section of the song decide, and sets the remaster from what it measured.
Play it through a chorus, not just the intro — the readout counts the windows it hears.
REVIVE
Crest factor — peak against body — tells it how flat the drums are. Revive re-inflates the transients and loosens the sustain, while the glue compressor and the drive back off.
DE-HISS
The hiss floor is learned only in genuinely quiet passages — intros, gaps, tails — so cymbal tails are never mistaken for noise. A dynamic high-frequency expander plus a gentle 10 kHz shelf take it out.
TARGET
K-weighted, gated loudness of the loudest section sets the makeup that lands the mode's target — and it never asks the limiter for more than about 4 dB, so nothing pumps.
The readout shows windows heard, the loudest section, crest, hiss floor and every setting it chose. RE-LISTEN forgets and starts over for a new song. Turn AUTO LISTEN off to drive DE-HISS and REVIVE by hand.
You'll miss it when it's gone
Finish a mix through Neo TUBE, pick your target, then hit bypass. The glue lets go, the loudness drops, the top end turns to fizz again — and you hear what it was doing.

Neo TUBE is the master-bus finisher from the Deestech bench — tube colour, loudness targeting, and an AI remaster that cleans up what modern (and AI-generated) masters get wrong. Built for tracks going straight to streaming, social and the club.

Open Neo TUBE on the master bus, click the TRIAL or DEMO button in the top right, paste the whole key, click ACTIVATE. It checks in with deestechholdings.com once and stores an activation for that computer — after that it works offline, in every host, in every session.
Up to 5 computers
Same key on the studio Mac, the laptop, the one at the rehearsal room — up to five at once. A computer you've already activated never uses a second seat.

Nothing disappears. Neo TUBE keeps running in demo mode: fully working, with a 3-second dip to bypass every 40 seconds. Paste a key and the dips stop. Your sessions and settings are untouched.
No — it's a listener, not a detector. Over-limited human masters, loud MP3s and squashed bounces get the same treatment. On a clean, dynamic mix it finds little to revive or de-hiss and mostly lands the loudness on the target you picked.
Each target carries its own goal and ceiling. STREAMING aims at −14 LUFS with a −1 dB ceiling so the normalizer has nothing to turn down; INSTAGRAM and CLUB go loud on purpose. Pick the target for where the song is going and Neo TUBE handles the rest.
Only for the moment you activate or deactivate. The plug-in verifies your activation offline every time it loads; audio never touches the network.
