Welcome to the world of precise and musical sound shaping with the EX-EQ plugin from Samsara Cycle Audio! This equalizer is not just a correction tool, but a true assistant in achieving the perfect timbre of your audio recordings.
EX-EQ: Your Path to Perfect Sound
EX-EQ is designed as an “enhanced” equalizer that combines intuitive control with powerful processing capabilities. Whether you’re working on a single track or an entire mix, EX-EQ provides the flexibility and character needed to make your sound stand out.
It’s especially worth noting its low-frequency section, inspired by classic Pultec-style EQs. This means you get a unique opportunity to simultaneously boost and attenuate at the same frequency, allowing you to create rich but controlled basses with a special “musical” coloring. This feature adds depth and warmth, often associated with vintage analog equipment, while remaining in a convenient VST digital format.
Key Features and Capabilities:
- Mono/Stereo Versatility: EX-EQ is available in both mono and stereo versions, making it suitable for a wide range of tasks – from processing individual mono instruments to working with a full stereo mix or master bus.
- Detailed Low-Frequency Control: The Low Freq section allows you to work in the range of 20 – 120 Hz. Thanks to the Pultec-style implementation, you have up to 18 dB of boost and attenuation, which gives unprecedented control over the “foundation” of your sound. This is ideal for adding weight to the kick drum, bass, or other low-frequency instruments.
- Flexible Mid-Range Adjustment: The Mid Freq section covers the range from 100 to 900 Hz with the ability to boost up to 18 dB. Bandwidth control allows you to precisely adjust the width of the effect, enabling you to accentuate or correct vocals, guitars, synthesizers, and other instruments in the mid-range, where the main energy and clarity of the mix are located.
- Bright Highs: The High Freq section operates in the range of 1 kHz – 16 kHz with a boost of up to 18 dB and bandwidth control. It is ideal for adding “air”, “sparkle” or presence and detail to cymbals, percussion, acoustic instruments and vocals.
- Precise High Cut: The High Cut function with attenuation up to 18 dB allows you to effectively remove unwanted high frequencies or noise, helping to make your mix cleaner and more focused.
- Convenient Control: The plugin is equipped with a general On/Off switch for quick comparison of processed and unprocessed signal, as well as an Output Level control for precise volume control after equalization.
