Scaler EQ, the sequel to the award-winning Scaler music theory plugin, offers a remarkable new way to do EQ with musicality and color.
By increasing only the note frequencies compatible with your song and decreasing only the non-compatible note frequencies, the Scaler EQ can increase the tonality behind your music and provide new harmonic paths, bringing a new perspective on working with cuts and raises.
And when you just want a normal, full-featured, modern EQ, the Scaler EQ protects you with the familiar workflow, broadband type options, mid/side operation, dynamic tapes and stereo enhancement. You can easily apply the classic mixing and mastering techniques used by professionals with an extra optional musical advantage.
What can Scaler EQ be used for?
Music Production: Ideal for musicians and producers who want to improve the musicality of their pieces by ensuring that all instruments are in harmony with the selected scale.
Audio Editing: Simplify EQ operations by targeting and clearing frequency bands, and remove the sound that does not belong, and enhance the sound that is naturally present with the selected scale.
Audio Engineering: Dynamically calm the sound by suppressing harmonic frequencies or expanding harmonic frequencies using dynamic compression and expansion.
Mastering: Place it on your main channel to expand your stereo width, focus your bass and improve your mixing.
DJING: DJs can use it to ensure that the tracks they are mixing are in harmony by detecting the key and scale while balancing the mixing of each track.
