Plugin Alliance – Brainworx Black Box Analog Design HG-Q for WiN

Brainworx and Black Box Analog Design are proud to introduce the HG-Q plugin, a meticulously modeled version of the upcoming HG-Q hardware equalizer, seven years in the making. Building on the acclaimed collaboration that resulted in the HG-2, this revolutionary equalizer combines analog warmth with cutting-edge flexibility and tonal depth, creating a whole new dimension for equalizers.

PECULIARITIES

• Collaboration with Black Box Analog Design: The HG-Q plug-in is closely modeled after the upcoming HG-Q hardware equalizer, continuing the successful collaboration that produced the acclaimed HG-2.
  
  
• Revolutionary EQ: Combines analog warmth with cutting-edge flexibility and depth of tone, redefining the possibilities of audio production.
  
  
• Six-Band Structure: Features three independent bands for boost and three for cut, providing subtle control over every element of the mix.
  
  
• Simultaneous Frequency Sculpting: Allows users to remove unwanted frequencies while enhancing key tonal characteristics through dynamic phase interaction.
  
  
• Advanced Saturation Circuitry: Adds rich harmonic content without sacrificing transients and clarity, enhancing low-end detail for a fuller sound.
  
  
• Tube Saturation in Gain Bands: Each gain band includes a tube saturation stage, adding warmth and harmonic richness to the signal.
  
  
• Solid State Cutoff Filter Technology: The cutoff filters use solid-state technology to provide precise, clean frequency removal.
  
  
• 2X Mode: Extends the EQ range, allowing up to 16dB of boost and cut, boosting saturation for deeper harmonic nuances.
  
  
• Musical Phase Interaction: Adjust the Q of the cutoffs to make them narrower, and switch between series and parallel modes to create musical phase interactions that enhance elements of the mix.
  
  
• Stereo, M/S, dual mono, and mono processing.
