Voxengo CurveEQ VST description
Voxengo CurveEQ VST was designed to be a professional WYSIWYG linear phase spline equalizer
Voxengo CurveEQ VST was designed to be a professional WYSIWYG linear phase spline equalizer.
CurveEQ shows you actual filtering information: the filter's frequency response, and both input and output FFT spectrums. You can actually see what the EQ is doing with the sound. This, in turn, allows you to get the best from your mix and your tracks. CurveEQ perfectly suits the needs of mastering, and in some cases CurveEQ is suitable for use as an in-track FX insert. Since CurveEQ is a linear phase equalizer, it offers a very easy tuning experience. This is especially true if you want to get your bass range right.
Besides the aforementioned features, Voxengo CurveEQ implements SpectruMatch spectrum matching technology that allows you to perfectly transfer a spectrum's slope from one recording to another. This allows you to `copy' a frequency balance of existing mixes so that other mixes that are still in the works will sound better. This technology also greatly helps in music disc mastering, since using it allows you to easily lessen any dramatic differences in the area of frequency balance between various tracks.
GearMatch technology allows you to transfer impulse
responses of high-end analog audio gear to your digital audio, while allowing you to adjust frequency response freely. This results in a great improvement of sonic qualities. With this technology, all your tracks will sound unbelievably professional and vintage.
CurveEQ has a Vintage Processor which allows you to polish your sounds. Just turn it on and you will get a great deal of presence effect. Also, CurveEQ includes a compressing saturator. When it is enabled, the processed sound gets an additional vintage feel. You can use the saturator to create professional sounding vocal, guitar and bass tracks. In addition, it can be used on almost any audio material, especially during the mastering process as a vintage loudness maximizer.
Voxengo CurveEQ is a great addition to your existing professional plug-ins collection. But if you are just starting with EQ plug-ins, CurveEQ is a great learning tool, too - just see how spectrum gets equalized and compare it to what you hear.
Here are some key features of "Voxengo CurveEQ VST":
· Actual filter's frequency response plot
· Ease of tuning
· Free-hand EQ curve drawing mode
· Input and output spectrum plots
· GearMatch technology
· SpectruMatch spectrum matching technology
· Vintage processor and saturator

Notes
Since equalizer uses digital filtering, it issues a sample delay (latency). If you are working in multitrack environment then possibly this will not bother you since multitrackers usually buffer this latency so it is consumed, but if you are using live audio processing, plug-in will issue a 3072 samples latency. Additional 512 samples of latency will be added if saturator latency buffering is enabled.
