FULL INFO BELOW:

Following on from the award-winning Scaler music theory plugin, Scaler EQ offers a remarkable new way to EQ with musicality and colour.

By enhancing only note frequencies in key with your song, and reducing only note frequencies that arent, Scaler EQ can provide a new spin on working with cuts and boosts, increasing the tonality behind your music and providing new harmonic avenues.

And for when you just want a regular, fully-featured, modern EQ, Scaler EQ has you covered with its familiar workflow, large choice of band types, mid/side operation, dynamic bands, peak limiters, and stereo enhancement. You can easily apply classic mixing and mastering techniques used by professionals, with an extra optional musical edge.

? What can Scaler EQ be used for?

? Music Production:
Ideal for musicians and producers looking to enhance the musicality of their tracks by ensuring all instruments are in harmony with the chosen scale.

? Audio Editing:
Simplify EQ processes by targeting and cleaning up frequency bands to remove audio that doesnt belong and enhance audio naturally present with the chosen scale.

? Audio Engineering:
Dynamically soothe audio by suppressing in-harmonic frequencies or expanding harmonic frequencies using dynamic compression and expansion.

? Mastering:
Place on your master channel to broaden your stereo width, focus your bass, increase loudness, and enhance your mix.

? DJing:
DJs can use it to ensure that the tracks they mix are in harmony by detecting the key and scale whilst balancing the mix of each track.

The Worlds First In-Key EQ
Thanks to its Harmonic Peak and Plus/Minus filter types, performing a boost on Scaler EQ means only boosting frequencies that are in-key with the currently set scale. Making a cut with the same band will reduce only the out-of-key frequencies ? although it can be set to cut in-key frequencies too, which can be helpful for mixing.

By using in-key EQ, youll get warmer lows and sweeter highs when boosting, while out-of-key cuts will lead to clearer, more focused bass and less harsh highs that retain their musicality.

Simple Key Detection
Key detection lets you automatically capture the key of your music through audio or MIDI, making it quick and simple to set up sweetening, tonal boosts. For a choice of broader or more focused tonal colours, you can add or remove notes in the currently selected scale. Key Switching? No problem, Scaler EQ can assign different scales and keys to Scale Switchers that are fully automatable.

Musician- and Producer-Friendly Band Types
Scaler EQs harmonic band types arent the only option for boosts and cuts. The traditional array of shelves, bells and high-pass/low-pass filters will be instantly familiar and simple to use for every producer, and theres more to reward creative exploration in Scaler EQ.

The Magic Shelf
Scaler EQs proprietary Magic Shelf bands work with stereo properties in mind. Boost a Magic Shelf in the bass region, and it will work harder on the bands mid signal than it does on its side information. Reduce the level of that bass Magic Shelf to make it a cut, and youll cut the side signal more than you cut the mid information.

The high-frequency Magic Shelf works in a complementary way, increasing sides with more strength and reducing mids more heavy-handedly. With its Range control increased, any Magic Shelf band introduces a complementary scoop or bump before its corner frequency.

Mastering Grade Limiters and Meters
Scaler EQ acts as an all in one tool box on your master channel with adjustable input and output levels, Peak and RMS Meters and two safety limiters that can be driven into at input or output stage for increased loudness.

All the Mod EQ Cons
Scaler EQ will fit right beside all your other mixing plugins with its solid workflow for boosting and cutting bands and shelves like a traditional EQ. Each band or shelf can also be set to Dynamic mode, helping to soothe boosts and cuts with dynamic compression and expansion that can be controlled with a sidechain input, set with Threshold, Ratio, Attack and Release controls.

Stereo options abound in Scaler EQ as well. With stereo channel selection (mid/side/stereo) for every band, its easy to enhance or reduce energy in a particular region of the stereo panorama, and thanks to the Mono Frequency selector, you can quickly and simply make the bass region mono below a frequency of your choosing. The Stereo Width dial offers a frequency-conscious way to enhance stereo width, using proprietary widening DSP.
