Description

TDR VOS SlickEQ Gentleman's Edition takes SlickEQ's concept to new heights and adds an exotic "Tilt"-filter flanked by flexible low-pass and high-pass filters. Five distinct EQ models provide a rich set of predefined EQ curves and behaviours for the three main semi parametric filter bands.

SlickEQ GE offers a switchable EQ non-linearity and seven different output stages. These options offer subtle and interesting textures, from the typical "mojo" often associated with high quality analogue audio gear, up to more obvious saturation.

An elaborate auto gain option automatically compensates for changes of perceived-loudness during EQ (within reasonable limits) and a gain-trim feature helps controlling peak overloads with ease. The 64bit multi-rate processing scheme (a.k.a. "internal re-sampling") practically eliminates typical problems of digital EQ implementations such as frequency-warping, quantization distortion and aliasing.

Beside the primary controls, the plug-in comes with an array of additional helpers: Advanced preset management, a frequency magnitude plot, undo/redo, quick A/B comparison, copy & paste, an online help, editable labels, mouse-wheel support and much more. Finally, SlickEQ GE allows to exclusively process the stereo sum or stereo difference without external sum/difference encoding (see "M/S" microphony).

  • 64bit "delta" multi-rate structure
  • Three semi-parametric filter bands, each with two shape options
  • Five distinct EQ models: American, British, German, Soviet and Japanese
  • Low band offers an optional phase-lag able to delay low frequencies relative to higher frequencies
  • High pass filter with optional "Bump" mode
  • Low pass filter with two different slopes (6dB/Oct and 12dB/Oct)
  • Parametric Tilt filter with optional "V" mode.
  • Seven output stages: Linear, Silky, Mellow, Deep, Excited, Toasted and Funky
  • Smart EQ actions: Match Pink, Match reference, De-resonate and Auto HP/LP.
  • Highly effective loudness compensated auto gain control
  • Frequency magnitude response display including a realtime analyzer
  • Stereo, mono, left, right and sum/difference (mid/side) processing options

    Superb broadstroke EQ

    I consider TDR's automatic gain compensation the best in the business, which alone makes this plugin an easy recommend- it makes for much cleaner mixes. The tilt option is a very nice addition compared to the free version, and definitely remember to check out the SlickEQ custom models!

    A very good tool.

    It delivers very clear sound. In my setup, I use it for individual tracks.

    Gentlemans EQ :-)

    Tokyo Dawn Labs TDR SlickEQ GE is a musical, mixing-focused 3-band EQ plugin that blends modern digital precision with subtle analog-style mojo.

    The Good: Exceptionally high audio quality and smooth curve models. Standout features like auto-gain matching, built-in output saturation, and a versatile tilt-filter make musical broad-stroke tonal shaping effortless. It offers unmatched value for money.

    The Bad: Designed strictly for musical broad adjustments, meaning it lacks dynamic bands and interactive curve dragging, making it unsuitable for clinical or surgical notch-filtering.
