I just read about Elevayta Clone Boy and I thought about the opposite: An Equalizer which analyzes a signal and subtracts its spectral curve from another (or the same) signal.

Such a plugin would be very cool if we're talking about the "perfect mix": You could flatten out peaks at certain frequencies. It would do the same to frequencies what a compressor/limiter does to transients.

What do you think?

Hmmm, what is the perfect level for eg 12kHz & 700Hz ???

An eq that change the dynamics, sounds familiar, where have I read that before??

Ha ha, I dont own a tube amp. 8)

Ahhhhh, you want to copy the EQ from one track and superimpose it on another track - matching EQ :?: Sounds something like Hogg or Ozone. If its from beggining to end - maybe Bluecat has something.

You're not the first to have this idea. It is, however, not suitable. You might get a very linear mix frequency-wise, but the individual instruments won't sound good in it any more.

Subtraction is not so helpful. Multiplication and/or division are more appropriate.

I think either Elevayta FreEq Boy or Elevayta Space Boy achieves what you have in mind.

Space Boy -> http://www.kvraudio.com/get/1163.html
FreEq Boy -> http://www.kvraudio.com/get/986.html

FreEq Boy will allow you to capture an EQ and merge it with itself, or any other EQ. But this is static.

Space Boy is a fully automatic EQ that makes frequency space (in real-time) for one audio track within another. Two instances of Space Boy, on the same material, will flattent its own EQ.

So, it already exists.

or knockout, perhaps:

Kn0ck0ut is a free VST plugin that takes two mono inputs and

spectrally subtracts one from the other. It can also retrieve

centre-panned material from stereo input.

it`s on k-v-r, as well, just couldn't be bothered to dig out the link...

Wrong application. Subtraction, like this, will not achieve what is suggested (even though it says FFT).

Thanks! That should work :)
