Am I missing something, or is there no full size screenshot of the GUI (i know, it's resizeable, but still, i can only see a tiny dwarfy screenshot, and no PDF manual to check) ?
It seems to be a nice plugin !

my impression as well. now it's an EQ with color add-on's etc.

Highly underrated company! Clipshifter for example is one of the most versatile clipping plugins. Toned-MAX looks great, feature-wise as well as the user interface. A versatile EQ plus analog input and output stages = perfect combination.

Thanks for everyone that has tried out Toned-MAX. I also appreciate some of the requests and bug reports. For anyone that has had issues, there is a new build uploaded to the website.

1 - I will work on this.
2 - I think I know what is happening here. The Autogain was designed for full mixes. I think the drum is effectively causing the Autogain to pump like a compressor and clicking is the result. I have some ideas.
3 - I'm all over this one.

There is a new build uploaded to the website that addresses these 3 issues. I am hopeful that the crackling is fixed. I have tested with Reaper on Windows & Mac, and Logic and Studio One 3 on an aging Mac. Both worked without notable problems.

Let me know if this is the fix, or if I need to do some more digging.

Does the noise happen with all filters, or just certain filter types?

Same version/OS/DAWs as previous posts.

This one stumps me? Are you checking with something like VST Plugin Analyser? The bump might be the result of the analog modeling. The frequency response is not completely flat with the analog modeling turned on.

Could that be it?

This EQ does look very good, but how does it differ from Crave EQ? Noticeably better, worse, similar?
