Dynamic EQ
The dynamic EQ is a 4-band parametric dynamic equaliser, which is able to provide
frequency selective compression or expansion. The dynamic EQ features proportional-q
filters that, when boosting or cutting by small amounts, reduce the bandwidth of the
filter compared to the setting at maximum cut/boost. Filter coefficients are calculated
at the audio rate to provide a lightning fast attack time, which is essential for
transparent operation. Each band features a full-band EQ type that switches out the EQ
filter so that the band operates as a non-frequency selective, or 'full-band'
compressor/expander. Flexible routing options allow for the following configuration
modes:
• One chain of stereo 4-band processing.
• Two chains of stereo 2-band processing.
• Four chains of stereo single-band
processing.
