SSL X-DynEQ

X-DynEQ - SSL's most advanced EQ Plug-in
Building upon the renowned X-EQ 2 Plug-in, Solid State Logic introduces X-DynEQ - the definitive tool for dynamic equalization during recording, mixing, and mastering. Drawing upon their extensive legacy in EQ innovation developed over decades of designing analogue and digital consoles, X-DynEQ is the most advanced EQ plug-in ever developed by Solid State Logic and represents the ultimate EQ tool available in a DAW.

Dynamic EQ
A dynamic EQ can boost or cut frequencies based on changes in the audio signal's amplitude. They allow users to precisely sculpt instruments, vocals, and entire mixes without significantly altering their natural character or introducing unnecessary artifacts. X-DynEQ ensures a transparent and musical result, maintaining clarity, dynamics/transients, and balance in the mix while effectively addressing specific frequency issues. When nodes are switched to dynamic mode `Attack´, `Release´, and `Threshold´ parameters become active. When not in dynamic mode, X-DynEQ is a fully featured parametric EQ offering users precision, control, and stunning sound quality.

Your new EQ toolkit:
X-DynEQ features 20 different EQ types and filter shapes with dynamic EQ options for each shelf or bell filter, offering up to 24 dynamic EQ bands for detailed sound sculpting. Three new filter types are available - Notch, Bandpass, and Tilt EQ - each designed for targeted frequency shaping from precise fixes to broad tonal balancing.

Leveraging SSL's unparalleled knowledge of program-dependent time-constants (as found in their legendary Bus and Channel Strip compressors), X-DynEQ features `Auto´ Attack, Release, and Threshold parameters that intelligently adapt to the incoming signal.

X-DynEQ delivers extremely flexible sidechain capabilities. Sidechain dynamic nodes from the internal of external sidechain of any other node/band for precision EQ'ing, repair work, and creative effects.

SSL's Advanced workflow
Whether it's a colossal mixing console or the latest plug-in, all SSL production tools are designed with advanced workflow are their core. It's a combination of a refined user interface, market-leading sound quality, and efficiently delivering the right tools for the production task at hand.

Initially developed for the X-EQ 2, X-DynEQ features a significantly enhanced version of the much-loved `node-based´ user interface. Users simply double-click to create nodes and can use the keyboard and mouse wheel shortcuts to easily alter parameter values. Each Node can access any of X-DynEQ's filter types and offers per-band stereo, left, right, mid, or side signal processing. Users can quickly switch the 'Focus' mode to easily concentrate on certain components of the stereo field, such as just the mid or side information. To further enhance workflow, X-DynEQ's piano roll view allows the matching of EQ frequencies to musical tones. SSL's anti-cramping EQ technology and optional HQ mode provide a high-accuracy EQ response with dynamic oversampling.

Key features:

• 24 bands of dynamic EQ: Apply dynamic processing up to 24 EQ bands, with 20 different EQ types and filter shapes in total, with options for both upward and downward compression and expansion, providing detailed control over signal dynamics.
• Auto Attack, Release and Threshold: Streamline your workflow using automatic dynamic EQ options that intelligently adapt to the incoming signal, reducing the need for manual tweaking.
• Notch, Bandpass, and Tilt EQ: 3 new filter types beyond X-EQ2; use the notch to fix with precision, bandpass for focus and isolate ranges, and tilt EQ to effortlessly balance overall tonal character between the highs and lows.
• Per-band stereo processing: Advanced controls for stereo, left, right, mid, or side signal processing on a per-band basis, enhancing the stereo imaging and spatial manipulation capabilities. Switch the 'Focus' mode: Easily concentrate on certain components of the stereo field.
• Piano Roll view: Use the piano roll view to visualise and navigate your filter cutoffs and center frequencies aligned with musical tones.
• Intuitive, Node-based Interface: Simply double-click to create nodes, and using keyboard and mouse wheel shortcuts to easily
• Backward compatibility: Seamlessly translates presets from X-EQ 2, protecting your previous work and facilitating a smooth transition to X-DynEQ.
• Integrated help: Built-in help functionality offers immediate assistance, reducing the learning curve and improving workflow efficiency.
• Per-band advanced dynamic sidechaining: Enhanced sidechaining options allows you to route an internal or external sidechain signal from any other EQ band, for creative dynamic effects and precise control over signal interaction.
• HQ Mode and Anti-Cramping technology: SSL's anti-cramping EQ technology and optional HQ mode provide a high-accuracy EQ response.
