EQUALISER

Shape what matters.

Inside the current build

Find the curve.
Keep the character.

Five bands, direct control

Drag a numbered point to set frequency and gain, then adjust its width or shelf slope. The outer bands switch between shelves and bells. Select a band to bring its controls into focus, with individual and combined curves visible together.

Independent roll-offs

Separate high- and low-pass filters provide 12 dB/octave roll-offs, controlled from their own graph handles or precise frequency entries. The five tone bands remain available independently for shaping the body and balance.

Musical starting points

Start with Studio Smile, Console Smile, Warm & Open or Presence, or make a targeted vocal or piano move on the selected band. Each setting remains editable; the display remembers the chosen starting point and marks subsequent tone changes.

Open or Classic Air

OPEN adds signal-dependent harmonic presence, with an assertive upper range. CLASSIC provides the earlier broad high shelf. The amount and Air Tone controls let you choose how much lift to bring into the part.

Compare, then check

Use A/B and captured level matching for listening comparisons. CHECK measures five seconds of audible output for sample overload, broad tonal concerns and large EQ boosts. It reports its findings for you to review. Live left/right peak meters keep levels visible.
