VOXENGO GLISSEQ VS FABFILTER PROFESSIONAL
We already have plenty of meters to do that.Voxengo offers you high-quality professional DAW audio plugins: VST plugins, AAX plugins and AU plugins, and sample rate converters. What really good K system metering is all about is letting you know what the average or rms value of the music is, not peak. If there is a way to get Span's meters into rms mode then that would be great but I cannot find it. The peak meter is showing what Span 2 meters do but the rms meter is much different in its ballistics and it is hovering around 0db VU as it should. There are two meters for each channel on the BlueCat. From what I can see only the BlueCat meter plugin does this properly. There is a number digital readout of the rms reading and it says 0db but it does not give any ballistics information. It does not tell you much really except peak info. (hence reason why real VU's are so good because that is all they can show) But Span 2's meters are hovering up around +12 db or so. What is really required for more effective K system metering is a proper rms mode instead, so if you are working at say K -14 then the rms meters will show 0db VU most of the time. The problem with it is that despite the scales can change etc the main meters are still in peak mode all the time so it is a bit meaningless. One is multiband ocmpression, the other multiband EQ dynamics processing.ĭave, (Bitflipper) the K System metering in Voxengo Span 2 is not that great unfortunately. It's a multiband approach (as is the DQ). I use the CQ for very surgical kind of work mostly on basses. And, as I said, I find myself using it a whole lot now.Īnd just to drive you more nuts - check out Sonalkis's "CQ" and "DQ" plugins. Just a damn good EQ with a good analyzer, and you can set it to "Zero Latency" and other options.ĭefinitely check out the demo. It's not a multiband if that's what you mean. I have GAS as a friend said (Gear Acquistion Sydrome) ) The 80% option makes SPAN 2 only slightly larger than SPAN 1.ĭarn Billy!! now you have me running off to try another one.LOL Just checked it out.does that act like more than one EQ? or is it just colours per band? (gonna check a demo later tonight) How is it latency wise?.the 'apqualizr' seems a bit tough at times unless I beef up my buffers more than usual, but yep there are some unique ideas as to Q etc on the one control. You have to close SONAR and restart it when changing between SPAN's 3 UI sizes. My initial review of SPAN 2.0 beta could be summarized as: it looks great, and the K-metering is nice - but I won't be deleting the old version. I think the biggest selling point for this version is support for K-metering.

Same with the peak hold, a button I use often.ĬPU usage is higher with version 2, although overall CPU demands are still modest enough that you can have several instances of SPAN going at once. This helps with clutter on the main window but means some settings aren't visible without opening up the dialog.įor example, toggling between a 3db/octave slope and a flat slope now requires opening the dialog and turning a knob instead of picking the value from a dropdown menu on the main screen. Controls that were accessible via the main screen are now on floating dialogs. I prefer some aspects of the older version's UI over the new one. It would be nice if there were a fourth size option that shrunk it down to the old version's size, which was handily compact. Even SPAN 2.0's smallest size setting is still quite a bit larger than version 1.9. It's a bigger window, which I appreciate but might be a problem for single-display users who'd rather their VST UIs be compact. The new SPAN looks just like the new GlissEQ, minus the filters and stuff.
VOXENGO GLISSEQ VS FABFILTER UPDATE
SPAN is basically the spectral graph portion of GlissEQ, and since GlissEQ was just updated last month I'd hoped that would mean a corresponding update to SPAN.Īnd so it is.
