The mixer section also allows the overall EQ curve of each component to be scaled, which helps with fine-tuning the processor’s results. A pair of faders allows the balance of this mix to be controlled, and each component can be panned independently too, although, again, the ability to position transient and tonal components independently is of limited use. Once through all the EQ and panning, the two signal components are mixed back together. Outside of some very specific correction tasks, and perhaps special effects, it’s hard to envisage many situations where the pan mode would be useful, but the mid/side mode is capable of some really nice tricks, such as making a part sound super-wide whilst simultaneously making it sound centralised and focused. The former allows a band’s transient and tonal components to be given different pan positions the latter allows the mid/side balance of each component to be adjusted. When running on stereo tracks, SplitEQ can also manipulate a signal’s stereo image, with each band switchable between pan mode and mid/side mode. Each band can also be solo’d, as can each component within the band, so it’s easy to hear exactly what’s going on. Transient values/handles are green, tonal values/handles are blue, and global controls, that affect both components at the same time, are grey. Although this sounds fiddly it’s sensibly presented, with the EQ settings adjustable via a conventional settings panel, or by dragging handles on the plugin’s EQ graph/visualisation. Here, the type, slope and frequency of each band applies to both transient and tonal components, but the gain and Q values can be adjusted independently for each component. Once separated, the decomposed signals are fed into the EQ itself. Helpful here is the ability to solo the transient or tonal components so you can hear the results of the split, and you can also lock the settings so they are unaffected by loading different presets into the plugin. Version 3 added dynamics and mid/side processing to this EQ’s already near-perfect 24-band recipe.Īllows you to mix-and-match classic vintage EQ and filter circuits into the perfect EQ for any job.
