What SSL autoEQ does
The plugin is built on the same processing as the SSL 4K E Channel Strip, and the developer describes it as carrying the classic SL 4000 Series presence, clarity and musicality into an audio-aware tool. Analysis is provided with sonible AI-assisted technology, which detects the characteristics of the source and recommends EQ moves and settings. Suggestions can be edited, and a feature can be turned off for more advanced users who prefer to set the EQ by hand.
Key features
- Authentic SSL processing. The EQ processing is modelled on the SSL 4K E Channel Strip, which the developer presents as the legacy of the SL 4000 Series console EQ.
- AI-assisted source analysis. Sonible AI-assisted analysis listens to the source audio and detects its characteristics before any EQ move is proposed.
- Editable AI suggestions. The recommended EQ moves and settings can be edited after they appear, so the proposal is a starting point rather than a fixed result.
- Profile-based, style-matched presets. AutoEQ presents profile-based, style-matched recommendations that the developer describes as tailored to the analysed material.
Compatibility
AutoEQ is available as VST3, VST2, AU and AAX for Windows 10 and macOS 13 in 64-bit builds.
