Dynamic EQ
Dynamic EQ is a newly developed equalizer, and is not an emulation of a particular model. Since a filter
that extracts the same band as the EQ is set on the side-chain, the EQ gain changes dynamically only
when the frequency band with an input signal becomes large or small. You can apply EQ to a specific
band, like a compressor or an expander. For example, if you use it as a de-esser for vocals, the EQ will
be applied to that band only when the sibilants and high-frequency noises are at a jarring level. The
result is a natural sound that does not compromise the original sound quality. It is also equipped with
two full-band Dynamic EQs that can be used in various ways.
This plug-in operates in mono or stereo mode, depending on the channel configuration of the rack.
