What it is
A flexible parametric equalizer with up to 31 fully parametric bands. Each band has frequency, gain, Q, and a filter type (Peaking, Low-Shelf, High-Shelf, HPF, LPF, Notch). You can switch the entire chain between Min-Phase (zero latency, gentle phase rotation) and Linear-Phase (transient-preserving, with pre-ringing trade-off and added latency) per session — no rebuild required.
How to use it
- Double-click anywhere on the EQ canvas to add a band
- Drag a band node to position it on frequency and gain
- Scroll over a band to adjust Q; hold Shift for fine control
- Click-select a band to expose its filter type, exact frequency, gain, and Q in the controls
- R-click a band to remove it
- Use the mode dropdown to switch the whole chain between Peaking / Min-Phase / Linear-Phase
What it affects
Every tonal decision routes through the parametric EQ — it sits early in the chain so downstream stages see the corrected spectrum. Linear-Phase preserves transient alignment and is mastering-grade for stereo bus work, but adds latency and a small amount of pre-ringing. Min-Phase is zero-latency and rotates phase like a classic analog EQ; preferable for mix-stage moves where alignment with other phase-rotated processors matters.
