proximity:EQ

More freedom in post-production - closer to the source

Often enough when interviewing, the recording microphone got placed too far from the source; or the grand piano turns out muddy because too much reverb was recorded. In these situations, proximity:EQ+ lets you draw the voice significantly closer and give the muddy piano a crisper sound in postproduction.

Lowering the spatial components increases the direct sound, putting the sound source front and center. Frequency-selective dereverberation allows you to precisely separate direct from indirect components of the signal.

Sonic depth - add space to the mix

Of course, it is also possible that the microphones ended up getting too close to the sound source. Your mix then lacks spaciousness. proximity:EQ+ seamlessly distances the sound source without affecting its original character. This makes your entire mix more transparent and opens new ways of creating sonic depth.

By adapting the proximity-feature, you can emphasise the natural spaciousness of the recording and thus freely adjust the distance from the sound source. You can also automatically create an acoustic fade-out - an atmospheric ambience effect particularly convenient for the post-production of films.

Room resonances - optimal room acoustics at the touch of a button

Even when you meticulously plan a setup and perfectly position the microphones - the acoustics of a given room simply are what they are. The sophisticated technology of proximity:EQ+ pens entirely new possibilities for amending detrimental room modes in post-production while leaving the direct sound entirely untouched.

The plug-in separates the direct sound and the reverb of a recording. With the help of frequency-selective adjustments,  proximity:EQ+ even lets you edit undesired room resonances distinctly from the natural reverb of a recording.
