A next-generation analog-modeled equalizer from boutique DSP developer 194dB Audio. Designed to eradicate the cumulative phase distortion and smearing common to cascaded software EQs, MythMelta EQ delivers exceptional frequency separation, lush high-frequency air, and intelligent baseline matching through an intuitive hybrid interface.
Isolated Parallel Inductor Circuitry: Each of the 5 frequency bands operates directly on the pristine dry signal via its own dedicated inductor model, completely preventing inter-band series interference and smearing.
Vintage Transformer Saturation Stage: Modeled after classic vintage microphone input transformers, dynamically saturating in response to EQ gain boosts to inject euphonic second- and third-order harmonics.
Smart 5-Band Assist Engine: Evaluates 6 seconds of incoming program material to establish an optimized, psychoacoustically balanced baseline EQ curve, bypassing analysis paralysis.
Continuous Tilt / Tone Macro: Allows swift global spectral rebalancing with a single knob after setting individual band cuts and boosts.
Mid/Side (M/S) & Stereo Processing: Full independent or linked control over Left/Right or Mid/Side domains for widening stereo mixes or cleaning low-end mono imaging.
Analog High-Pass & Low-Pass Filters: Dedicated resonant HPF and LPF sections with variable cutoffs and resonant peaks to clean extremes before the inductor stage.
Zero-Latency Tracking Mode: Linear processing profile with ultra-low latency, making it ideal for tracking vocals, tracking drums, and mixing large multi-track sessions.
Parallel Inductor Bands (LF, LMF, MF, HMF, HF):
Low Frequency (LF): Sub-bass and low-end definition without bloating the fundamental kick/bass relationship.
Low-Mid Frequency (LMF): Mud removal and body control across guitars, snares, and synths.
Mid Frequency (MF): Vocal forwardness, snare crack, and instrumental presence.
High-Mid Frequency (HMF): Bite, intelligibility, and attack transients.
High Frequency (HF): Smooth, silky top-end lift that avoids the brittle digital harshness typical of standard biquad filters.
The "Warm" Transformer Stage:
As EQ bands are driven, the transformer reacts non-linearly with subtle soft-clipping and low-end saturation.
Engages smooth harmonic glue across the entire mix bus or drum group.
6-Second Dynamic Assist:
Click the Assist button during audio playback.
The algorithm listens across the psychoacoustic frequency spectrum and automatically dials in a tailored 5-band starting point to address masking, boxiness, and harshness.
Tone & Push Macros:
Tone: Seamlessly rotates the overall tonal balance brighter or darker across the entire audio spectrum.
Push: Drives the transformer input harder while attenuating the final output, increasing harmonic color without altering perceived loudness.
Plugin Formats: VST3, AAX Native, Audio Units (AU) 64-bit
