About

Building upon the renowned X-EQ 2 Plug-in, Solid State Logic introduces X-DynEQ – the definitive tool for dynamic equalization during recording, mixing, and mastering. Drawing upon their extensive legacy in EQ innovation developed over decades of designing analogue and digital consoles, X-DynEQ is the most advanced EQ plug-in ever developed by Solid State Logic and represents the ultimate EQ tool available in a DAW.

A dynamic EQ can boost or cut frequencies based on changes in the audio signal's amplitude. They allow users to precisely sculpt instruments, vocals, and entire mixes without significantly altering their natural character or introducing unnecessary artifacts. X-DynEQ ensures a transparent and musical result, maintaining clarity, dynamics/transients, and balance in the mix while effectively addressing specific frequency issues. When nodes are switched to dynamic mode ‘Attack’, ‘Release’, and ‘Threshold’ parameters become active. When not in dynamic mode, X-DynEQ is a fully featured parametric EQ offering users precision, control, and stunning sound quality.

Features

  • 24 bands of dynamic EQ: Apply dynamic processing up to 24 EQ bands, with 20 different EQ types and filter shapes in total, with options for both upward and downward compression and expansion, providing detailed control over signal dynamics.
  • Auto Attack, Release and Threshold: Streamline your workflow using automatic dynamic EQ options that intelligently adapt to the incoming signal, reducing the need for manual tweaking.
  • Notch, Bandpass, and Tilt EQ: 3 new filter types beyond X-EQ2; use the notch to fix with precision, bandpass for focus and isolate ranges, and tilt EQ to effortlessly balance overall tonal character between the highs and lows.
  • Per-band stereo processing: Advanced controls for stereo, left, right, mid, or side signal processing on a per-band basis, enhancing the stereo imaging and spatial manipulation capabilities. Switch the 'Focus' mode: Easily concentrate on certain components of the stereo field.
  • Piano Roll view: Use the piano roll view to visualise and navigate your filter cutoffs and center frequencies aligned with musical tones.
  • Intuitive, Node-based Interface: Simply double-click to create nodes, and using keyboard and mouse wheel shortcuts to easily
  • Backward compatibility: Seamlessly translates presets from X-EQ 2, protecting your previous work and facilitating a smooth transition to X-DynEQ.
  • Integrated help: Built-in help functionality offers immediate assistance, reducing the learning curve and improving workflow efficiency.
  • Per-band advanced dynamic sidechaining: Enhanced sidechaining options allows you to route an internal or external sidechain signal from any other EQ band, for creative dynamic effects and precise control over signal interaction.
  • HQ Mode and Anti-Cramping technology: SSL’s anti-cramping EQ technology and optional HQ mode provide a high-accuracy EQ response.
