Unlock the power of precise sound shaping with Acon Digital Equalize—a parametric equalizer plug-in designed to elevate your audio to perfection. With an intuitive interface and groundbreaking features, Equalize puts unmatched control at your fingertips. Unlike standard equalizers, it allows you to tweak not just center frequency, gain, and bandwidth, but also the filter slope for each band, ranging from a gentle 3 dB to an ultra-sharp 120 dB per octave.
But Equalize doesn’t stop there. It offers three versatile phase modes: zero-latency minimum phase, phase-preserving linear phase, and the revolutionary mixed phase mode. The mixed phase mode lets you freely adjust latency from 5 to 120 milliseconds, giving you unparalleled control over pre-ringing artifacts—a common challenge in linear phase filtering. With latency below 20 milliseconds, pre-ringing is masked by the natural temporal hearing process, ensuring perfect time-alignment across the frequency range.
Acon Digital Equalize isn’t just an EQ—it’s an audio revolution. Let your creativity soar with the precision and flexibility your sound deserves.
Great care has been taken to provide a user interface that is straight forward to use. Band parameters can be adjusted using handles directly in the graphical representation of the frequency response, including bandwidths and filter slopes. A flexible real-time analyzer lets you monitor every aspect of the processing. You can easily switch between full, mid, side, left or right channel processing for each band and Equalize automatically routes the audio signal internally to ensure the best results and lowest possible latency.
Highlights
- Eight different band filter types — low cut, low shelf, peak, tilt, bandpass, notch, high shelf and high cut
- Up to twelve independent bands
- Freely adjustable gain, frequency, bandwidth, resonance and filter slope
- Three different phase modes, including the novel mixed phase mode with adjustable latency
- Choose channel mode for each band independently (mid, side, left, right or full processing)
Acon Digital Equalize 2 is available as VST, VST3 or AAX for both Windows and Mac or as AU plug-ins for Mac. There are 32 and 64 bit versions for Windows. The Mac version is 64 bit and runs natively on both ARM (such as Apple M1) and Intel processors.
Equalize’s smoothly variable control over its filter slopes – something we don’t recall seeing on any other EQ – along with the ability to finetune phase/latency, will endear it to mixing perfectionists.
