Description

Standard EQs delay some frequencies, which produces phase shifts. This can be a problem when mastering or when mixing multi-miked groups. EQ can exaggerate phase shifts caused by using multiple mics on instruments. And with parallel processing, equalizing one path can change its phase compared to the other.

For scenarios where phase is critical—especially mastering—Waves’ Linear Phase EQ is the answer. It’s transparent, free of smearing, and can handle a wide variety of crucial equalization tasks.

Choose Your Transparency

The Broadband version includes a special lowband stage and 5 parametric EQ stages, while the Lowband component’s 3 parametric stages cover 11 Hz to 602 Hz, with the precision of 11 Hz resolution.

Choose Your EQ Shape

Sculpt your ideal response with low shelf, low pass, high shelf, and high pass shapes for every stage—each with a choice of “analog” or “digital” slope characteristics. The ninth shape is a variable-width bell.

Shape the Low Frequencies with Precision

The Lowband component’s design, and Q factor, extract the accurate fullness of bass frequencies down to 11 Hz. 3 low-frequency parametric stages have 5 filter types—low cut, low shelf, bell, high shelf, and high cut.

Mastery for Mastering

Linear-phase EQ’s accuracy and uncolored character have made it a favorite for critical mastering applications. Choose a 12 dB display range to see settings in more detail, or 30 dB for a broad overview of all possible settings.
