Blue Cat’s Widening Triple EQ VST (64-bit)
Developer’s Description
Blue Cat’s Widening Triple EQ is the “Widening” (Mid/Side) version of the Triple EQ shapeable filter / equalizer: it is a three bands real time semi-parametric mid/side equalizer. It lets you control the low, medium and high gains of the mid (mono) and side (stereo) components of your audio signal independently, with a custom filter shape. It enables you to manage the wideness of a stereo signal for any frequency. With the ability to control the center of the M-S matrix, it is possible to adjust the spectrum of a sound anywhere in the stereo field.The plugin provides instant visual feedback of your settings thanks to the included graph. The overlayed controls lets you shape the filter easily.
Detailed Description
This free EQ includes a low shelf filter, a high shelf filter and a boost/cut peak filter. Its wide range of gain (+/-40 dB per band) and bandwidth (.01 to 5 Octave) makes it very versatile to create any filter shape. The three filters are linked together so that when you change the center frequency or the bandwidth, the parameters of the three filters are modified accordingly: you can control the entire equalizer characteristics with a single mouse click.
The graph shows the computed frequency response of the plug-in, so that you can exactly know how your signal is processed. The controls are directly available on top of the filter graph, making the design of the filter shape even easier.
The plug-in also offers a dual channels version, with independent left/right or mid/side equalization capabilities. Both channels can be linked together in many ways, letting you transform this plugin into a frequency-dependent panner and much more.
The plug-in can be controlled in real time with MIDI or automation: it is capable of absolutely zipper-free clean and continuous time-varying equalization with no latency. it is the ideal companion of our audio analysis tools for signal-dependent side chain filtering.

READ THE FULL CHANGELOG
Blue Cat’s Triple EQ was designed to help users such as music producers or sound engineers enhance the quality of their projects by providing them with various tools. This app is actually a 3 band semi-parametric equalizer, which can be controlled in a similar manner to a single filter that has customizable shape.
Its components include a low shelf filter and a high shelf one, as well as a boost/cut peak filter. The WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) nature of this app makes it easy to understand and operate even by novices.
It comes with a dual mode that lets users operate left and right or side and mid channels independently. It is also possible to link multiple channels. Among its features, users can find and benefit from a +- 40 dB range for each band, no latency, automatic gain compensation, filter shape controls and a real-time frequency response display.
Blue Cat’s Triple EQ is available as Win-DX, Win-RTAS, Win x64-VST, Win-VST3, Win x64-AAX, Win-AAX, Win x64-DX, Win-VST and Win x64-VST3. Its interface can be customized since it features support for skins and transparency adjustments.
System requirements
- An SSE2-enabled processor (Pentium 4 or newer)
- Any VST / AAX compatible host software (32 or 64 bit).
Blue Cat’s Widening Parametr’EQ is a powerful multi-band processor for stereo widening and narrowing.
Main features:
– True WYSIWYG 7 bands parametric equalizer with independent mid/side channels.
– Filters designed after analog circuits.
– The equalizer can be placed with great precision in the stereo field thanks to the ‘center’ parameter.
