smart:EQ 2 – Update v1.1

December 20, 2018 | News

With a comprehensive set of bug fixes and some whole new features, smart:EQ 2 got brushed up for your mixing and mastering processes.

Note: We replaced smart:EQ 2 with smart:EQ 3! The intelligent equalizer now sports two AI-powered functions and was overhauled extensively. smart:EQ 2 remains a maintained and fully-functional plug-in though.

What’s new?

Bundle your bands

You can now combine multiple filter bands into one group with one easy drag or right-click. Once grouped, you can change the gain and frequency of all grouped bands simultaneously or you can scale the sum response of all bands using the ”scale” slider in the EQ parameter section. 

Set your favorite Profiles

Everybody’s got their darlings! Speed up your workflow and pin your favorite profiles to the top of your profiles list!

To mark a profile as a favorite, simply hover over the name of the profile in the profile drop-down. Now a grayed-out star will occur behind the name of the profile. Click on the star – and your profile is marked as a favorite.
