Key Features
Arturia EQ SITRAL-295 is a plug-in recreation of a '70s German-made EQ module used in broadcast studios. Delivering a smooth and warm sound, EQ SITRAL-295 is powered by Arturia's proprietary Phi and TAE technologies, authentically capturing the analog sound of the hardware original and the exact dynamic response of each dial and switch. This three-band EQ includes a low and high shelf/filter and a semi-parametric EQ band to sculpt and shape the full frequency spectrum of the sound in your mix.
Enhanced for the modern range of producers, EQ SITRAL-295 includes the original sound and tone of the hardware and a new, 'Alternative' mode by flicking the Charakter switch. This unlocks a more modern, hi-fi sound with subtle harmonic excitement and gentle compression to glue everything together. Additional upgrades include mid/side processing and comprehensive digital metering, providing an overview of your frequency response pre and post-processing.
Product Ref: 254386
Combining multiple German-made broadcast modules of the '70s into one streamlined plug-in, EQ SITRAL-295 delivers the unmistakable sound of analog warmth into your productions. While analog sounds unbeatable, it's often expensive, difficult to source and even more difficult to maintain. Arturia EQ SITRAL-295 gives you the hi-fi EQ sound, transistor smoothness and more into your projects without the unwanted hassle and expense all while enhancing what was ever possible on the original module.
Designed to simply make things sound better, even when in bypass you'll hear a smoothing of your frequency response with a touch of harmonic stimulation. A couple of small tweaks and you can hear the power that is under the hood of SITRAL-295. Divided into three bands, subtle shelving of the low frequencies can bring out the punch in any instrument, enhancement of the treble is perfect for adding air to a main vocal without any excessive harshness and the sweepable midrange is perfect for adding boldness to your synthesizers.
Perfectly capable of working with single instruments in a mix or entire groups, EQ SITRAL features a M/S switch to transform the plug-in's stereo configuration into a mid-side processing tool. Ideal for letting you tweak left, right and mono channels in your mix independently, you can enhance the brightness of your stereo vocals, piano or guitars whilst affecting the centre bass drum or bass guitar.
Rather than spend ages carefully dialling in frequencies, take bold leaps with stepped parameters, and authentically notched controls - or you can make them continuous if you’d prefer. Part of EQ SITRAL-295’s charm is its stepped control panel, letting you adjust your sound in bold chunks. But for the discerning producer or engineer who likes to mix between the lines, we added the option of continuous controls for tweaking the finer details. The choice is yours.
The ultimate decision should be made by your ears but having a visual representation of your EQ is never a hindrance. EQ SITRAL-295 includes a highly-responsive and accurate spectrum analyzer with real-time adjustments and colour coding according to your chosen settings, making it incredibly easy to view any changes in your frequency response after your EQ processing.
For any EQ plug-in, you must listen to the needs of your track and make adjustments from there. That doesn't mean that presets can't be handy. With Arturia EQ SITRAL-295, you can dive into a range of included presets from professional engineers to discover instantly gratifying sounds in your mix. Everything from simple vocal lifts, guitar taming or punchy drums can be found in the preset section. Search function, tagging and favouriting make it easy to come back to your favourite sounds in any future projects.
It's not good enough in modern production to offer only one sound from a plug-in. EQ SITRAL-295 is a product of countless hours of perfectly recreating the sonic response of the original hardware with indistinguishable quality but also has a trick up its sleeve. An 'Alternative' mode is included is to change the response of the plug-in to a modern monster, with a contemporary hi-fi sound with subtle harmonic excitement and compression under the hood.
Using proprietary modelling algorithms, EQ SITRAL-295 can recreate the iconic instruments down to the component parts to create unrivalled realism and immersion. Unmatched in analog emulation, EQ SITRAL-295 is powered by TAE and Phi technologies. TAE offers component-level modelling to accurately present the characteristics and behaviour of the instrument, whilst Phi's state-of-the-art physical modelling brings the acoustic properties into the virtual world for hyper-realism. The result is truly a next-level sound that is indistinguishable from the original to add to your productions.
"It's a total game changer. Sounds just how it should, and better!" - Riccardo Damian (Producer - Lady Gaga, Adele, Miley Cyrus)
