Description

Featuring a low shelf filter, a high shelf filter, and a boost/cut peak filter, this plugin allows for seamless customization of your audio landscape. The standout feature of the Triple EQ is its ability to link the three filters, enabling users to adjust the entire equalizer's characteristics with a single mouse click. This makes it a breeze to sculpt your sound with precision and ease.

The plugin comes equipped with dual channel capabilities, offering independent left/right or mid/side equalization. Its real-time display graph provides a clear, visual representation of your frequency response, ensuring that your adjustments are accurate and effective.

The user interface is skinnable and customizable, allowing for a personalized experience, while the no CPU load on idle feature ensures that your DAW runs efficiently. With its extensive range of gain (+/-40 dB per band) and bandwidth (0.01 to 5 Octave), this plugin is not just about adding more bands, it's about adding more possibilities to your creative process.
