I don't get off on analog models, in fact i find them pretty boring and redundant most of the time. Especially EQs.
I was interested in this EQ for other reasons (continuous slopes and some filter shapes)
Sure, I just wanted to express difference that I've found when comparing these wemodelledeverything vs individual approach.

Try cutting with Kirchhoff. Hipass, set to 25hz, 96db slope, Q-1.000 - really good. DMG leaves some energy in that area (yes in audible range) no matter which filter is selected.

I never ever use 96dB, i barely use anything over 24dB :)
Why would you do that 25hz?

Also my go to EQs are fab and voxengo, unfortunately i dont have dmg, but some hipass filter implementations look more like shelves than cuts (i.e chebyshev II)

If you want the saturation they have this

You do realize that in practice this means that there's no "saturation" from a specific hardware model and that's it? At least they made it clear.

In a nutshell this is exactly the same way DMG or others are doing it. No difference.

They are modeling curves but not saturation and other stages from hardware path. And that's fine because we have plenty of saturation tools already.

No one is offering something like that in a convincing manner not even UAD. They all have specific product model not all models into one plugin. If you need something like fully modeled circuit then you buy specific item emulation (such as UAD or IK Neve 1073).

Imagine undertaking and task size for making top quality circuit models of all legendary gear including their nonlinear behaviors - in one single plugin. And then magically make all that working fine. For 120-150 EUR. No it won't happen.
Hmmm. I thought they meant they didn’t use any logs, integrals or quadratics in the model.

This is the real deal. Turns out 117 bits of precision makes for a great EQ without any artefacts.

How this compares to MeldaAutoDynamicEQ?

Looks interesting. I like their detailed technical explanations.

But the CR activation puts me off, especially when it comes from a new and rather small company. When they decide to go out of business the plug-ins are lost. :scared:

To my ears this as an impressive sounding EQ. 117 bit audio processing seems absurd and more like it was implemented for the bragging rights. 64 bit gives more than enough headroom.

This EQ looks very impressive and as if there was A LOT of work put into it with so much detail.

Will demo.

I'd be interested if others have these "rounding errors" also fixed. I have DMG Equilibrium and upping the digital compensation in IIR to 256 on a kick drum makes it really tight and keeps it punchy even if I use a lot of cuts / corrections.

I'm guessing besides the mixed phase, spectrum grab and dynamic features there's not much difference to Equilibrium. Also Fab pro q3 has all these features already. OK, no below threshold Dyn Eq, but I got Nova Ge and Multiplicity for that.

I miss the promised "unique" filter types. And I get it, their graphics try to clone a famous EQ, so did others. But I didn't like it. It still feels cluttered with this big options bar per band and it had something soundwise I didn't like either. Never heard of this company and given that devs in the dev forum still talk about how 32bits for audio data and 64bit for computations is more than enough, I don't buy much into their 117bits stuff.

To this admitted Fabfilter fanboy, it looks like a subpar attempt at a direct copy of Pro-Q (but with different knobs to make it "totally not obvious" :roll: ). Maybe they should've just used Pro-Q's GUI and put one of these over it:

I wish companies would stop copying the Fabfilter floating controls thing. Shit just gets in the way.
