PSPaudioware PSP MasterQ2 2.1.5

Normally, masteringEQ focuses entirely on equalization, but PSP MasterQ2 is more than just masteringEQ; "Q" stands for "Quality". We designed PSP MasterQ2 to be a creative tool for mixing and mastering or wherever its features and quality are needed.

PSP MasterQ2 can operate at sampling rates from 44.1kHz to 768kHz. It offers seven different filters: low-cut and high-cut filters of 12, 24, and 36 dB/oct; low shelf and high shelf filters can be switched to top filters; and low-mid, mid-range, and high-mid peaking filters - all with wide-range adjustable frequency and Q.

The EQ chart shows an overview of the EQ curve as well as the individual characteristics of each filter. In addition to powerful filters, the PSP MasterQ2 also gives you a number of limiting and “soft clipping” algorithms to help you shape your signal and keep it from digital peaking.

PSP MasterQ2 uses amazingly accurate 80-bit extended floating-point computation in all filters to handle any accumulated errors. It also allows optimal filter operation even at the lowest frequencies with high Q-factor and gain settings.

PSP MasterQ2 also uses a proprietary Frequency Authentication Technique algorithm. "FAT" is a double sampling technique that allows the filter to operate appropriately at the highest frequencies. This mode uses high-order linear filters to avoid phase errors and linear errors from the audio bandwidth caused by double-order sampling. This technique results in double sampling without any sample rate conversion artifacts.
