A-EQ revolutionizes your audio experience with its modular approach, offering a versatile selection of eight interchangeable modules. This innovative design empowers you to fully customize your signal path, giving you unparalleled control over your audio processing.
HiQ is a bell mode like the original hardware but with a narrower bandwidth, enabling precise and surgical control over the audio signal.
Mid range bands
Choose between a tonal bell and a surgical HiQ bell.
Low & High range bands
Shelf as well as standard & HiQ bells.
Polarity inversion
Flip the polarity to make it negative, relative to its original state.
Line Preamp
Low gain harmonics going from very subtle to punchy, with drive at +4 for soft harmonics and +8 for clipping.
Mic Preamp
High gain harmonics, results from evident all the way to a highly aggressive distortion.
Oversampling up to x16. Convert the audio to a higher sample rate for processing.
*Oversampling is recommended at saturation levels from +7 and above.

C’est un excellent plugin pour colorer le son et ajuster un équilibre si besoin durant le mixage….

I don’t have access to the API hardware so I can’t compare but I find this EQ well made with modern algorithms (de-cramp, oversampling with anti aliasing filter etc).
The two Q-values seams well thought out and sounds to me like 0.7 and 1.5
which is common on several analog consoles with two selectable Q-values.
And the proportional gain / Q interaction (same as the API hardware) feels natural and makes my EQ decisions easier.
The modular design is genius and is together with the overall quality the main reason that the A-EQ is now my new goto for musical EQ correction.
And last but not least, the pre amp saturation sounds really good and the ability to switch the preamp off (select line, mic, none), makes this EQ suitable for every channel in the mix.

I really like it’s character, crunchy but high quality. Pairs nicely with the a-console emu, which I intend to buy shortly. Y. Gagarin

I still have a ways to go regarding the exploration of its functionality (haven’t put it on a master track yet, for instance), but there are things I can already say.
First off, it’s subtle. No over-characterisation on bandwidth control, keeping the audio tracks in good shape with everything you’d ever want an EQ to do to them otherwise. Cutting out the mid frequencies on an instrumental group? You got it. It’ll still sound nice and natural. Want an unmistakably grungy feel to the vocals without making you sound like you’re bellowing into a tin can? No problem. Want a small choir of backing vocals actually sound like they’re somewhere in the back while the lead threads the track undisturbed? Doable. I’m very happy with it, as you can tell.
I’d say it’s well worth the expense.

Really great sound! You might add the option of choosing between the standard setup and a setup with the three “free modules” (I use the “free modules” more than the standard modules😉). A “midQ” setting might be nice.

Dear Carsten, after reading your message, we believe it’s worth mentioning that the possibility of adding specific configurations for users is well addressed through the functionality of presets. To better illustrate this and see the application in action, please take a look at the following link where you will find detailed comments.
