ThrillerEQ

My first VST Plugin, modeled after the GREAT RIVER / HARRISON 32 EQ 4-Band Equalizer. These equalizers were used in Harrison 32 Consoles, on which countless hit records were produced, including Abba, Queen and Michael Jackson. It was used by Bruce Swedien in the recording and mixing of Michael Jackson’s Thriller, the best-selling album of all time!

Features:

- 3 Peak EQ-bands with Gain and Frequency controls (Low, Low-Mid, Hi-Mid)
- Hi Shelf Band
- High- and Low-pass filters with sweepable frequency

It's not an exact copy of the actual gear (Peak band curves are a bit different, some switches had been removed), but besides of these minor changes almost all parameters of the plugin are the same.

Technical data:

Hi Shelf - 800 Hz to 16 kHz (+/- 12dB)
Hi-Mid Peak - 400 Hz to 8 kHz (+/- 12dB)
Lo-Mid Peak - 200 Hz to 4 kHz (+/- 12dB)
Lo Peak - 40 Hz to 800 Hz (+/- 12dB)
HP: 25 Hz to 2.75 kHz/ LP: 160 Hz to 20 kHz

  5. Very smooth on the top end and warm on the bottem. I describe it as a High End Analog Eq disguised as a plugin.
    Please do a Compressor.
