Density is 'Weight per unit volume'... thats plenty technical to me.
To say something sounds 'thin' doesn't seem too far fetch'd.
How does density translate....? well, some of us have more operable lateral lines....
While I’m not familiar with this specific plugin, I’ve noticed that ALL purely digital implementations that work with an FIR/IIR set of filters have a similar sound, now if something like PSpice/MatLab was used to go for a simplified “hardware emulation” then things can get more interesting, but to get the best out of those you really need to be running at 88.2kHz so as to not run into the “brick wall” of your D/A....this is why I have collected so many analog equalizers over the years. I EQ on the way in and get my phase-smearing at the source!
Well that's just stupid. Usually native devices in DAWs use less DSP not because of magic powers, but because a) they're more closely integrated, b) because they're simpler, with lesser quality filters, lower oversampling, etc. Also, I imagine no DAW developer wants to undercut the VST business, because they both sit on the same perch - you need DAW to run VSTs, you need VSTs to replace native devices for more quality processing.
Not surprised, having read just few of his comments here... But hey, the guy "got a record deal because of Reason" and can do a frequency splitter of which there are many - and some free - in RE shop, so he's a big shot apparently
Not in 100% accurately anyway. (That easilie).
You don't know but still argue about it?
I am an audio-enthusiast and don't feel like I started out yesterday. If you think the limiters can't be used like I do, you just should give it a try, as most professional audio.gurus tend to break rules, if it makes something sounding better. LEARN!
Go n read also my "about" over my website: and see how much of me has been put into Reason alreaddy, thank you!
You mean this?
Heikki is using Propellerhead Reason to make his music and is a brain behind lots of the features added into this software, like: search/favorites, reduce cable clutter and multiple racks and more

Something like a 6dB wide Q 22kHz boost sounds WAY different on the way in than it does EQ’ed in Reason. The “air” around the sound isn’t pinched off and harsh but instead feels like the sound floats on top of the mix.
Anyone that’s read my posts has probably guessed that Reason is the centerpiece of a hardware setup... so perhaps I’m not the guy to pontificate about a new EQ plugin.
Big fan of the EQ in the Plugin Alliance ConsoleN VST
Some things ain't flaws though, I have seen lots of di*ks in this thread, who never would go back in to their closets. How would you know the secrets of Synapse in the first place some of you?
Gosh, did the sarcasm of my comment just flew right over your head?!
I can only respond by clarifying my point that there are subjective terms, and there are with technical terms. Sample rate is a technical term that has a range of values that are agreed upon. “Density”, “Thin”, etc. are subjective terms with no range of values, but non-the-less useful for communicating feelings.O1B wrote:Density has no technical meaning... strange statement... even 'in terms of audio quality'

I don’t get it....you placed a picture of Denzel Washington in the middle of my post and then highlighted some parts in red. Was this meant to convey information or were you just trying to be funny? If the latter, I believe the joke is lost on me.O1B wrote: ↑25 Apr 2018I have collected so many analog equalizers over the years. I EQ on the way in and get my phase-smearing at the source!

IDK, I used to put EQ on everything chasing the perfect tone. I used to use a 31 band rack EQ on my guitar, for example. But then I got better gear and achieved the tone I wanted without needing all the band-aids. I've scaled back the gear quite a bit these days and ceased throwing extraneous fx on everything by default and I sound better.
