Blue Cat’s Re-Head

Blue Cat’s Re-Head is a headphone monitoring plugin that makes listening on headphones feel closer to working with studio speakers. Its head response model reshapes the listening experience, while adjustable virtual speaker positions and angles help soften the exaggerated separation of hard-panned sounds. Brightness controls, a built-in EQ and a spectrum analyzer let you refine the tonal balance. An impulse response loader can also help recreate your listening room or compensate for your headphones. Re-Head suits home producers mixing late at night, musicians tracking through headphones and anyone working away from their usual setup. It can make distorted guitars and other upfront instruments feel less unnaturally close, without adding latency. Rather than replacing your monitors, it offers a more comfortable bridge between speaker and headphone listening, with MIDI control, automation and preset management for convenient workflow integration.
