Sonic Timeworks Equalizer V1

Equalizer V1 is a remake of the classic Sonic Timeworks plug-in from around the beginning of this millennia, offering an analogue-ish design. Unlike most other digital eq’s the frequency response does not go towards zero dB when approaching half the sample rate (“Vintage” algorithm only). This is achieved without the use of oversampling, the company says.

Equalizer V1 has two algorithms, six bands (two of which are switchable between shelf and bell curves), a low-cut, and a high-cut filter. The interface is divided into two pages, the first having all the controls in a classic setup with sliders, and the second having an EQ response curve laid on top of a frequency analyzer.

Features:

• 2 algorithms (Clean & Vintage) for versatility. Get the EQ sound you want.
• True stereo 64-bit internal precision.
• 30-Band frequency analyzer 'built in’.
• Standard and Graphic editing modes.
• Real-time previews (dependent of the hosting application).
• High Cut and Low Cut filters with resonant filter controls.
• Low shelf and High shelf filters.
• Sweep-able filter points with adjustable Q (bandwidth) controls.
• Complete with LED-style meter.
• Fader control while holding down the Shift button.
• Supports sample rates over 192kHz.
