Engineers Filter – Your tool for surgical filtering
In the world of recording and music production, there is often a need for extremely precise and aggressive filtering. Standard EQs and filters may not always provide the necessary cutoff, leaving unwanted frequencies or artifacts. That’s where Robin Schmidt’s Engineers Filter comes in, a plug-in designed for applications that require maximum precision and extreme slope.
Unparalleled Precision Through Engineering Methods
The heart of Engineers Filter is the implementation of high-order digital filter design methods commonly used in science and engineering. The plugin uses such well-known algorithms as Butterworth, Chebychev type I and II (inverse Chebychev) filters, as well as elliptic filters (known as Kauer filters). These methods allow you to achieve a steepness of response that is unattainable for many other plug-ins on the market.
The use of these engineering approaches guarantees not only extreme steepness, but also controlled phase response behavior, which is critical when working with audio signals. You can make surgical cuts by completely isolating or removing certain frequency ranges with unprecedented precision, making this plugin an indispensable tool for sound restoration, sound design, or complex frequency editing.
Wide Range of Filters and Incredible Order
Engineers Filter offers the flexibility to choose the type of filter that adapts to any of your needs. The following filter types are available:
- Lowpass filter
- Highpass filter (Highpass)
- Bandpass filter
- Bandreject filter
- High/Low shelving filter (High/Low shelving)
- Peak/Dip filter (Peak/Dip)
But what really sets Engineers Filter apart is the ability to apply filters up to the 20th order! This means that you can get a slope of up to 120 dB/octave, which provides a virtually vertical cut. This feature opens up new horizons for creative and corrective audio work, allowing you to achieve results that previously required complex multi-band settings or were simply impossible.
For professional tasks on the Windows platform
Engineers Filter is available in VST format for Windows operating systems (32-bit). It is a reliable tool for mixing and mastering engineers, sound designers, and anyone who strives for excellence in sound and needs maximum control over the frequency spectrum. If you need extreme precision, surgical accuracy, and the ability to cut frequencies with unprecedented steepness, Engineers Filter will be an indispensable addition to your plugin arsenal.
