MAAT Digital thEQorange v2.2.0 WIN

Linear Phase Without Compromise

Available for both Windows and macOS, thEQorange builds on the groundbreaking foundation of Algorithmix’s no–compromise LP EQ Orange, while bringing that reference quality into the 21st Century. thEQorange is a two–pass, time domain equalizer that employs 80 bit floating point internal precision. Its design reduces pre and post–echo, while also providing exceptional pass and stopband ripple behavior, normally not achievable with frequency domain linear phase equalizers. Its complex internal architecture, sophisticated signal windowing, and applied calculation precision all contribute to its exceptionally natural sound and exacting fidelity.

Details

Exclusive Contribution Control — positive addition only, negative addition only, EQ contribution only, and “normal” EQ (EQ contribution plus input) helps to aurally keep track of your progress
Proprietary algorithms result in extremely low noise and vanishingly small nonlinear distortion
Unique construction results in processing artifacts 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
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
Extreme calculation precision 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 most other filter implementations
Additional low and high pass filters can be overlapped to achieve steep “brickwall” slopes
Special oversampling for analog–like filter characteristics when working with baseband sample rates (44.1 & 48 kHz)
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
Grid snap toggles between surgical and musical applications, emulating popular hardware resonant frequency choices, including Maselec and Manley
AutoGain for effortless A/B comparisons
Resizable frequency response display for easy, high precision adjustments
Section solo and FLIP make quick work of problem frequencies
