Equalizer

---

Overview

Equalizer is an essential parametric EQ with up to four flexible filters to balance and enhance the input signal. Advanced tools like Solo and Adaptive Q streamline workflow and expand creative possibilities.

1. Effect Dropdown

The Effect Dropdown lets you remove or swap the effect and load or save sub-presets. See Shared Settings for dropdown options and detailed descriptions.

2. Equalizer Settings

Solo. Solos the currently selected filter so you can hear its effect in isolation for precise adjustment.

Adapt Q. When active, each filter’s internal Q setting is automatically adjusted based on its Gain setting: boosts and cuts become narrower at higher levels and wider at lower levels for more musical results.

3. Equalizer Display

The Equalizer Display provides an easy way to select and adjust EQ filters while viewing the EQ’s frequency response and its effect on the input signal.

Click and drag a circular indicator to select and adjust an individual filter. The controls to the right of the display always apply to the currently selected filter.

4. Equalizer Controls

All controls to the right of the Equalizer Display affect the currently selected filter.

Filter Bypass. Enable or disable the currently selected filter.

Filter Type. Each filter can be set to one of the following types:

• Low Pass. Cuts high frequencies; allows lows through.

• High Pass. Cuts low frequencies; allows highs through.

• Band Pass. Emphasizes a narrow frequency band while attenuating others.

• Notch. Removes a narrow frequency range; useful for eliminating resonances.

• Peak. Boosts or cuts around a center frequency; ideal for tone shaping.

• Low Shelf. Boosts or cuts low frequencies with a gradual slope.

• High Shelf. Boosts or cuts high frequencies with a gradual slope.

Frequency. Sets the filter’s center or cutoff frequency.

Gain. Adjusts the level of the peak or shelf filter to apply boosts or cuts to the selected range.

Q. Controls the bandwidth and resonance of the filter. Lower values produce narrower, more surgical responses; higher values result in wider responses.

5. Mix Controls

In. Sets the level of the wet signal path before processing. Use it for gain staging the processed path without affecting the dry signal.

Out. Sets the final level after processing and dry/wet mixing.

Mix. Blends the unprocessed (dry) and processed (wet) signals.
