The IIEQ is a free, fully parametric 10-band equalizer with its own, characteristic sound and low CPU consumption. The 1st and the 10th band are low and high shelf filters, respectively; all other bands are peak filters. Individual bands can be switched on and off (click on the turqoise buttons!). IIEQ comes in two GUI flavors, so you can freely choose which style suits you and your work flow.
CDSoundMaster has announced the release of version 2.0 of Nice EQ, a VST effect plug-in for Windows that contains two analog-style equalizers in one release. It features a Solid State Op-Amp design and a High Voltage Vacuum Tube design, each with its own signature frequency response and harmonic content.
Features:
Bell-shaped Solid State and Vacuum Tube EQs with a unique 1.0 “Q” width, including first order even and odd harmonics, and +/- 20dB of Gain.
10EQ is a VST plugin based on the API 560 Graphic Equalizer. Originally developed in the 60’s, it was used in many API consoles in the 70’s and 80’s.
Just like its hardware counterpart, 10EQ is a very versatile tool and can be used for many mixing and mastering purposes. It features 10 bands of equalization with a special “Proportional Q” design, which automatically narrows or widens the filter bandwidth. The CPU usage of the plugin is very low, so it can be used in large quantities at the same time. 10EQ contains 20 presets, which provide useful starting values for further adjustments.
As its name suggests, EQuality is an EQ plug-in. It is not a model of a specific piece of hardware – it’s more ambitious than that. EQuality aims to be a great replacement for all your EQs. From the top-down, it’s designed to allow you to make it work the way you want it to.
DMG Audio says that “from the bottom up, EQuality sounds as good as an EQ can sound. By that, I mean the prototypes are as close to the consistent analogue shapes as can be achieved digitally, without spending extra CPU. When you want to spend extra CPU to close the deal, you can do that too, but so far not many people have reported finding occasions where the difference is perceptible.”
Rhinoceros is a very colored channel strip designed to add weight and character to otherwise stale or thin sounds. With a three band parametric EQ, dual mode lowpass / hipass filter (12dB/oct and 24dB/oct), variable tube saturation and independent wet / dry outputs, Rhinoceros can add fat, grizzly meat to anything you throw at it.
Feature List:
-3 Band Parametric EQ
-12dB/oct or 24dB/oct Hipass and Lowpass filter
-Variable ‘tube’ saturation
-Independent dry and wet outputs
-Phase inversion capability on output
Changes in this version: Added phase inverter to the output stage, minor tweaks to the ‘tube’ design.
