Audiocation has released Equalizer AQ1, a new free Parametric EQ VST plug-in for Windows.

Equalizer AQ1 is a parametric EQ plug-in optimized for low CPU usage whilst maintaining the highest precision in signal processing. The input and output level of the plug-in can be adjusted separately. While with typical digital equalizers one control would be redundant (since the process of filtering is linear), these controls gives you the control about the analogue modelled gain stages.
