SplitEQ | Eventide Details
The Eventide SplitEQ Plug-in is a groundbreaking equalizer that introduces a fundamentally new approach to audio equalization. Utilizing Eventide's patented Structural Split™ technology, SplitEQ divides incoming audio into separate Transient and Tonal components, allowing for independent processing of each. This innovative method enables precise corrective and creative adjustments, making it an indispensable tool for mixing, mastering, and sound design.
Key Features of the SplitEQ Plug-in
- Structural Split™ Technology: Separates audio into Transient (e.g., attacks, plosives) and Tonal (e.g., sustained notes, harmonics) elements for targeted processing.
- 8-Band Parametric EQ: Each band offers independent control over Transient and Tonal components, with filter types including Peak, Notch, Bandpass, High Shelf, Low Shelf, Tilt Shelf, High Pass, and Low Pass, and slopes ranging from 6 to 96 dB/octave.
- Stereo Imaging Controls: Continuous Left/Right or Mid/Side panning of Transient and Tonal components for each band, enabling precise stereo field manipulation.
- Real-Time Spectrum Analyzer: High-resolution display of Transient and Tonal streams separately, facilitating detailed monitoring and analysis.
- Comprehensive Preset Library: Includes over 150 presets designed for various instruments and applications, aiding in quick setup and inspiration.
- Advanced Controls: Features such as Undo/Redo, A/B comparison, resizable GUI with zoom options, and multiple color schemes (Original, Dark, and Colorblind) enhance usability.
- Cross-Platform Compatibility: Available in AAX, AU, VST2, and VST3 formats for macOS (10.14+) and Windows (10+), requiring an iLok account for activation (no physical dongle needed).
Example Use Cases of the SplitEQ Plug-in
- Vocal Processing: Reduce sibilance by attenuating high-frequency Transients while enhancing the Tonal body for clarity and presence.
- Drum Mixing: Tighten kick drums by controlling low-frequency Tonal elements without affecting the punchy Transients.
- Guitar and Bass Enhancement: Shape the attack and sustain characteristics independently to achieve desired tonal balance and articulation.
- Mix Bus Processing: Apply subtle Transient and Tonal adjustments across the entire mix for cohesive and polished results.
- Sound Design: Create unique textures by manipulating Transient and Tonal components separately, opening new creative possibilities.
