High quality EQ plugin worth $129 free until October 13th
“Achieve spacious highs, smooth lows, and great tones fast. This model of German engineering brings a whole new color to your EQ palette.”
Sie-Q is a new EQ plugin that has been designed to uniquely capture the nuances of your music with highs that would make the clouds blush. The creators, Soundtoys, took inspiration from the Siemens W295b, and underappreciated gem that advised Sie-Q’s “smooth curves, airy highs and ease of use”.
Here’s what Soundtoys say about their new EQ:
Classic Color
In our quest to capture unique tones and colors from the world of hardware, we dug deep into the Soundtoys gear museum and found a little know gem: the Siemens W295b. It impressed us so
much that it became the inspiration for our first EQ. Sie-Q faithfully captures the hardware’s smooth curves, airy highs and ease of use, allowing you to get the tone you want fast, without a lot of hassle.Of course, in classic Soundtoys tradition, we’ve also carefully modeled its saturation character so you can hit it hard and get the real analog vibe of the hardware. The magic of this classic piece is now in your hands, and in your mix.
Great Highs
The stand out feature of Sie-Q, like the original, is its amazing high end. It adds space and air, and feels perfect on any track, no matter how much you boost. Turn up the High knob to breathe life into vocals, or pull it back on bright acoustic guitars and cymbals to create a silky sheen. Sie-Q is also a fantastic addition to your master bus-just a touch of the High band can add life and openness. Is your mix sounding a little too digital? Combining Sie-Q and Decapitator in the Soundtoys Effect Rack is the perfect remedy.
EQ with IQ
Like the original, Sie-Q is an EQ that’s hard to make sound
bad. One of the things we love so much about the W295b is that even though it’s over half a century old, the design is as intelligent today as it was back in the 60s. When you use, it just feels like all the hard work has been done for you.
Designed for broadcast, its frequencies and curves were carefully chosen to keep things sounding good no matter what. And this clever design translates perfectly to tracking and mixing records, too. From full mixes, to sub mixes, to vocals and guitars, to drums and percussion this EQ helps you find the sweetness with no hassle.
