70 YEARS AFTER ITS CREATION, THE BAXANDALL EQ GOT A DEFINITIVE UPDATE WITH THE SYMPH EQ…now it finally arrives in PLUGIN FORM!
Since its release, the Heritage Audio 19” rack SYMPH EQ has pleasantly surprised every musician, sound designer and engineer that it has crossed paths with. Now, after months of careful development, the SYMPH EQ plugin is here to bring your stereo mix to life with just a few minimal, yet surgical, changes to the frequency response. Its sound can only be described as tight, sweet, and natural, assuring that your mix will stand proudly with other popular songs currently heard, keeping it always fun and exciting to listen to. Give your mix bus and master bus a whole new perception and sense of depth with just tiny tweaks.
MID/SIDE EQ FINALLY DONE RIGHT
The Mid/Side mode takes things to another level altogether. You really need to test it out to understand how quickly and efficiently you can mold your mix. By thickening and giving weight to all the material in the middle helps to solidify your tracks and steady the groove. While lightening up the information on the sides can extend the overall stereo image and provide more room for your mix to breathe.
ENHANCED USABILITY!
Whether you’re using the SYMPH EQ plugin in Stereo, Mid/Side or even on a MONO signal, setting it up is actually a very quick process and provides excellent results as the EQ curves themselves are very gentle…and the use of parallel equalizing to obtain the desired response makes it have an exceptionally low phase deviation and negligible artifacts to produce a very natural effect.
System Requirements
64-bit AAX-, AU-, and VST3-format-compatible effect plug-in for MacOS (10.15.7 and higher, with both INTEL and Native Apple Silicon M1/M2/M3/M4s compatibility) and Windows (10 and 11)
An iLok account is required for Symph EQ activation. (If running Symph EQ in trial mode, note that the trial will be fully functional for 14 days after activation.)
Not bad but needs time spent to get the most out of it.
Much of the default samples are very thin and I get that it's based on the original hardware though some options in the plugin would have been nice but not necessary. General operation is good both as plug in and stand alone with some excellent features. Auto fills work nicely. Looking forward to spending some more time with it to get the most out of it.
These are a fantastic solid stand. I have my. Adam A77h’s on them . However, if I’m wrong cable management would be a blessing on the back but have been to the hardware shop to get some cable clips.
