Linear-phase EQ technology delays the signal where appropriate so that all bands are in phase with each other. This may or may not create a sometimes subtle, sometimes obvious effect called “smearing.” However, it’s important to note that these phase shifts also give particular EQs their “character” and therefore, can be desirable. With multiple EQ stages, these phase differences can produce subtle cancellations or reinforcements at particular frequencies. Traditional EQ introduces phase shifts when you boost or cut. ![]() There’s much mythology around linear-phase EQ, so here are the basics. 1).įigure 1: The phase-linear Low-Cut filter section offers three cutoff frequencies and two different slopes. ![]() This is arguably the most significant change, and appears as an eighth filter stage just below the left of the frequency response display (Fig. Yes, Studio One 5’s Pro EQ 2 has a more “pro” look…but there are also some major improvements under the hood, so let’s investigate. ![]()
