FabFilter announces the release of Pro-Q, a new EQ plug-in for Mac OS X and Windows.
Key features:
• A great sound from state of the art filter algorithms with precise analog modeling and unlimited internal headroom (no clipping)
• Operates either in zero latency mode, or in linear phase mode with adjustable latency
• Incredible interface that is ideal for easy and precise editing
• What-you-use-is-what-you-see to minimize screen clutter and maximize usability
• The ability to create new EQ bands just by dragging the frequency curve
• Select multiple curves to drag and edit in parallel
• Up to 24 EQ bands
• Filter shapes: Bell, High/Low Shelf, High/Low Cut with 6, 12, 24 and 48dB/oct slopes
• Each band can operate on the stereo signal or on the left or right channels independently for per-channel EQ-ing
• Mid/side mode to EQ the mid and side signals separately
• Built-in real-time frequency analyzer with Pre- and Post-EQ modes
• Ability to double-click for text entry of parameter values
• Different display ranges: 6dB range for mastering use, 12dB, and 30dB for sound shaping during mixing
• All the usual FabFilter quality you've come to expect: perfectly fine-tuned knobs and controllers, interactive MIDI Learn, undo/redo and A/B switch, Smart Parameter Interpolation for smooth parameter transitions, an extensive help file with interactive help hints, sample accurate automation, and AltiVec and SSE optimization
FabFilter Pro-Q is now available for €139, $199 or £124. It can be used on Windows and Mac OS X in VST and VST 3, RTAS and Audio Units plug-in formats. Bundles with FabFilter Pro-Q and other FabFilter plug-ins are also available. Note that existing FabFilter customers can purchase Pro-Q with great discounts by logging in to their online user account.
