MAAT thEQorange

A remedial linear phase EQ with unparalleled clarity. For mastering ears, and other discerning engineers.

Features

• Exclusive Contribution Control™ — positive addition only, negative addition only, EQ contribution only, and “normal” EQ out helps to aurally keep track of your progress
• Proprietary algorithms result in extremely low noise and vanishingly small nonlinear distortion
• Unique EQ design results in no perceptible unwanted coloration with mixes (processing artifacts well below -100 dBFS) — work with clarity, transparency, and definition
• Equal delay at all frequencies regardless of filter settings, perfectly preserving the time relationship of harmonics in the original signal
• Operates at up to 384 kHz sampling rate, suitable for high resolution audio (HRA), DSD or DXD production and post
• Extended resonant or center frequencies up to 174.14 kHz, for processing in ultrasonic and near ultrasonic for all HRA production and post
• Exceptionally transparent ELF response, perfect for DC removal
• 12 sections with 5 freely assignable parametric filter types; bell, low shelf, high shelf, low cut, and high cut
• 5 freely assignable Panorama modes; stereo, mono (sum), L-R (difference), left–only and right–only
• 80 bit internals (long double floats) virtually eliminate rounding errors
• Adjustable Q for bell and high/low pass filters make musical adjustments easy
• Adjustable slope for shelving filters improve precision in the pass and stopbands
• Double the stopband attenuation (ripple) compared to other filter implementations
• Additional low and high pass filters can be overlapped to achieve steep “brickwall” slopes
• Special oversampling for reduced aliasing when working with baseband (44.1 & 48 kHz) sample rates
• No coloration or amplitude bumps even at very low frequencies
• Optional inbuilt tone generator makes for quick location of trouble spots
• SORT function organizes active Sections in ascending order
• TUNE function aligns center frequencies to Western tunings
• Sections have Solo and FLIP to quickly find and address trouble spots
• Grid snap toggles between surgical and musical applications, emulating popular hardware resonant frequency choices, including Maselec and Manley
• True Peak metering to avoid overs
• AutoGain for effortless A/B comparisons
• Resizable frequency response display for easy, high precision adjustments
• Exclusive dual view, monochrome/color real time spectrogram with user adjustable temporal wiper lets you choose “when” to transition to low clutter monochrome
• Choice of parametric editing via numerical fields or directly on the graphical display
• Complete setup exchange across multiple instances
