EQUO

Image-Line

Where to get itAvailable from Image-Lineimage-line.com

EQUO is an advanced morphing graphic equalizer that shapes audio by increasing or decreasing loudness across specific frequencies. It uniquely combines EQ (VOL) and EQ (PAN) controls in a single display, allowing both tonal shaping and stereo panning on a per-frequency basis. Designed for live performance and automated tweaking rather than surgical precision, EQUO supports one Master EQ shape plus 8 separate EQ/PAN shapes that can be smoothly morphed together.

Written from the manual and checked against it. How we check

Key Features

01Morphing between 8 separate EQ and PAN banks with Master bank
02Combined EQ (VOL) and EQ (PAN) controls in main display
03Three drawing modes: Pencil, Line, and Curve
04Analyze function that generates antagonistic EQ curves from incoming signal
05Shift (Band Shift) for moving EQ shapes across frequency range
06Band-slicing with Add mode to preserve original signal
072X oversampling option for higher audio quality
08Adjustable bandwidth (BW) control

Things to Try

  • 01Try automating the Shift parameter to move the current EQ shape across the frequency spectrum during playback
  • 02Use Analyze button held down to average the incoming signal's frequency spectrum, then adjust the MIX knob between antagonistic (cut) and complimentary (boost) modes
  • 03Set different EQ curves on banks 1 and 8, then use Interpolate 1 to 8 to have EQUO automatically create intermediate steps on banks 2 to 7
  • 04Enable Add mode to combine EQUO's sound with the original input and avoid subtle tonal changes that occur during normal band-slicing and recombination
