CONEQ™ software plug-ins

Real Sound Lab’s CONEQ™ plug-ins

CONEQ™ plug-ins are multi-channel software equaliser components for applying the CONEQ™ correction filters from within a host application. Host applications for RTAS and VST plug-in formats are currently supported. Typical examples of applications in which a CONEQ™ plug-in is used are DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) applications such as Digidesign Pro Tools, Steinberg Cubase, and Cakewalk Sonar, audio editing applications like Steinberg Wavelab, Adobe Audition, and Sony SoundForge, and various media players. CONEQ™ plug-ins are a software alternative to the Real Sound Lab’s flagship product, the APEQ™ hardware equalizer.

Using CONEQ™ plug-ins

The CONEQ™ correction filters are obtained using the CONEQ™ Starter or CONEQ™ Workshop applications and then loaded into the CONEQ™ plug-in. The CONEQ™ plug-in is inserted as the last plug-in on the master track/bus and used at all times when monitoring a recording session and editing or mixing the material. However, the CONEQ™ plug-in only improves the sound quality of the equipment and not that of the mix. Therefore, the plug-in must be disabled (bypassed) when exporting the final production.
