AE600 Active Equalizer HD v7.
The AE600 represents the next generation of active equalization, featuring new and unique EQ modes, independent control of fixed and active EQ bands, and an ultra-low latency algorithm, making it the ideal solution for any audio production.
Every fixed and active band in the AE600 has its own gain, frequency, Q, and mode controls. The EQ mode options include parametric, proportional Q parametric, 5x Q parametric, Baxandall shelving EQ, vintage-styled EQ, X-style shelving EQ, Baxandall shelving EQ plus filtering, and high and low pass filtering. All bands are completely overlapping and can utilize the input signal or selected side chain inputs to trigger the active EQ response. The active EQ bands can be controlled via the response plot itself or from the text readouts above and below the response plot.
The AE600’s active EQ response is shaped by each band’s threshold, attack, and release settings. Additionally, a ratio control determines input signal level sensitivity, further refining how the active EQ achieves maximum equalization – a feature unique to the AE600 (and AE400) active equalizers by McDSP.
Peak signal text readouts for each active EQ band’s key signal allow quick setup of each band’s active EQ threshold and are located beneath band dynamics plots. Input and output controls, individual band bypass, band control linking, and band key signal monitoring round out the features of the AE600.
