SuperFreq EQ Plug-In Includes Native OS X Operation10-band paragraphic EQ works with any Carbonized VST host application January 26, 2002
BIAS Inc.
introduced SuperFreq, a 10-band parametric graphic
equalizer. SuperFreq is one of the first Mac OS X-native VST
plug-ins, and works within any Carbonized VST host application - such
as BIAS Peak 3, Peak LE 3, or Deck 3.5; it also works under Mac OS
8.5 through 9.2.x.
As a true Carbon Event-driven OS X plug-in, SuperFreq's controls are
fast and smooth; it also sports OS X's distinctive "Aqua" interface
(a high-tech brushed metal interface is used under OS 9). SuperFreq
includes everything for professional-caliber equalization, including
-18dB to +18dB Gain Values; 0.1 to 30 "Q" (bandwidth) values;
sweepable frequencies from 20Hz to 20kHz, individual band bypass
buttons; 24dB stereo input/output meters; and filters including Peak,
Notch, High Shelf, Low Shelf, High Cut, and Low Cut. Optionally,
SuperFreq can be launched as an 8-band paragraphic EQ, rather than
the standard 10-band.
BIAS Freq, a 4-band version of SuperFreq, is bundled free with
Peak 3, the highly-acclaimed digital audio
editing/processing/mastering application from BIAS. Freq is similar
to SuperFreq, except that it is limited to 4-bands; offers only Peak,
Notch, High Shelf, and Low Shelf filters; and the Q range is limited
to a value of 10. Special upgrade pricing to SuperFreq is available
for BIAS Peak 3 owners.
"There's a real need for high-quality OS X-compatible plug-ins right
now, and we're very proud to be leading the market with the release
of BIAS SuperFreq and Freq," said Jason Davies, VP Worldwide Sales
for BIAS. "Both plug-ins look great, but more importantly, they sound
incredibly good. In particular, we expect that mastering engineers
and other professionals who demand nothing but the best - many of
whom already depend upon Peak - will be especially impressed with
SuperFreq's capabilities."
Availability and Pricing
SuperFreq is available now as a download-only product from the BIAS
Website for US $79. Upgrades from Freq (included with BIAS Peak 3)
are only US $49. For more information, visit their web site at www.bias-inc.com. |
