RRS MEQ-5

The MEQ-5 AUv3 plug-in — comes as time-limited Demo-version for you to try. It gives you 5 minutes of Free play time. (You can reload the MEQ-5 AUv3 plug-in as many times as you want, thereby you get the Demo period again and again.) Unlimited version of MEQ-5 AUv3 plug-in comes as In-App Purchase. The MEQ-5 based on Classic Mid-Range Equalizer from the '70s, with two bands of midrange boost and one band of midrange dip, the MEQ-5 gets the very best out of the «power region» where guitars and vocals can make or break a mix. SPECIFICATIONS: • Standalone and AUv3 Plug-in; • Modeled vintage Equalizer; • Low-midrange peak Boost: 200, 300, 500, 700, 1000 Hz; • High-midrange peak Boost: 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5 kHz; • Dip Atten: 200, 300, 500, 700 Hz and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 kHz; • On/Off Analog Saturation; • Undo/Redo; • A/B; • 2x/4x/8x Upsampling. The MEQ-5 provides exacting control of the «power region» in program material, that frequency range from about 300 Hz to 5000 Hz in which most of the sound energy is concentrated. The ear is especially sensitive to sounds in this region. In this region, even small resonances in studio acoustics and microphone and speaker responses are very evident in their effect on the listenability of the sound. Three independent sets of controls make it possible to boost on a peak curve at 200…1000 Hz while simultaneously boosting on a peak curve at 1.5…5 kHz, while simultaneously dipping at 200…7000 Hz. The HLF-3C completes the Passive EQ Collection. This plug-in has 12 dB per octave low and high cut filters, providing broad retro-tonal sculpting or bygone-era special effects, without the inconvenience of insertion loss found with the unamplified passive hardware. You can easily subtract the unnecessary frequencies in any instrument and sub-group so they stay wonderfully musical in the mix. The original HLF-3C hardware unit is a true passive design: there are no input/output amplifiers and it does not require any external power. As a result, there is an inherent loss of signal level when using the HLF-3C hardware. The RRS HLF-3C plug-in compensates for this inherent signal loss for simplified use in the modern era: it has unity gain upon insertion (there is no insertion loss until one or both of the cut filters is engaged). The HLF-3C interface is very simple and includes only three controls: • Enable — This toggle switch is the plug-in bypass control. When in the down position (bypassed), plug-in processing is disabled altogether. The plug-in is engaged with the switch is in the up position. This switch can be used to compare the processed settings to that of the original signal; • Low Cut — This rotary switch specifies the cutoff frequency of the low cut filter. Ten frequencies are available: 50, 80, 100, 150, 250, 500, 750, 1000, 1500 and 2000 CPS; • High Cut — This rotary switch specifies the cutoff frequency of the high cut filter. Ten frequencies are available: 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 15 KCS. The midrange MEQ-5, Passive Filter HLF-3C and the broadband EQP-1A together comprise a full range vintage EQ chain. To use MEQ-5 as a plug-in, you need an AUv3-compatible host app like GarageBand, Auria, AUM, Cubasis and more — MEQ-5 will appear in the list of Audio Unit extensions for effect plug-ins in the host app.
