Bertom EQ Curve Analyzer

Here is an interesting donation-ware plugin - the Bertom EQ Curve Analyzer.

You simply put an instance on either side of a plugin and it shows you how it affects the EQ spectrum. I simply put the “generator” instance on the first track, then added 2 busses after it to it was easier to see and to drop a plugin into the Insert slot in the middle buss.
Like this…
- A parameteric EQ just to verify it does what it says…
- Your favorite modeled EQ. This is Overloud’s Gem EQ84 with a “HiQ” cut of -16dB at 4.8K, a low shelf of about 10dB at 70Hz, and a High Pass filter at 70hz. (It creates a big resonance right on the cutoff frequency of the High pass filter!)
- Other plugins can be interesting to look at. You can see why they might be called “colored” plugins. Just by inserting them, they affect the EQ. Here is the Kush Omega N Transformer. You can see at its default settings, the is a pretty significant roll-off on the highs and some lows.
- Then, when you crank it all the way up, it does THIS!
Fun stuff!
