Eventide dev here: the output gain sliders will go up to 200% in the release version. (But they didn’t in most of the pre-release versions, so that’s our fault)
Hi Peter. Any plans to add dynamic options to the eq bands? With this added feature, SplitEQ would render the all other EQ and transient shaper plugins out there virtually obsolete. DO IT! Er...PLEASE do it! 😎
Hi. Very interesting EQ-approach to bring those common concepts under one hood to have a fast workflow. Is it possible to independently shape the Q-factor for transient and tonal energy within the same band? If not that would be a great additional feature imo. Also it would be a good thing to address the cramping. CPU could also be more optimized. Thank you. Cheers
Wow. The bass example really floored me. I play and track bass regularly and that balance of clarity without boosting fret noise (esp on roundwounds and a heavy hand) is amazing. Gonna mess with Sonible entropy and see how far it can go in the same direction. Eventide has a Super elegant plugin here!
This is a HUGE game changer wow! Added this to my Must have tools I need NOW: gulfloss, smart EQ, soothe 2, and now the split EQ. So many tone shaping things that make complex problems easily solvable. edit: this video won me over and bought the split EQ. And it seems I also already bought the gullfoss 😂.
Bought it even though I own SPIFF, Soothe 2, Gulfoss, all of Sonible’s stuff, etc and I STILL think this has a very unique place as a go-to for initial, quick frequency manipulation. So many amazing use/cases and sound design possibilities here from cleanly removing the drum transients from a soul sample, de-easing a vocal’s sibilant transients whilst boosting the air via an eq boost, removing Al transients from a reverb to create something ethereal or perhaps even more pillowy/less noticeable, adding authority to a rap vocals low frequency transients, changing the tonal emphasis of a sound or group of similarly voiced sounds so they can better work together… Incredible!!!
This plugin should win some kind of major award (i.e. Nobel Peace Prize in DSP or something). Also, I've gotten to the point where I won't buy a plugin unless Mike has covered it here. Indeed, if Mike had a nickel for every plugin I bought he'd have like $17.05
Just picked up Sonnox Claro and this comes out! Soundstaging will be more dynamic when mixing using this. Looks like a new must have until every intelligent eq has a transient handling feature. Thanks for the video, Mike!
For real. I was planning on getting Boz’s Transgressor, but this seems to do the same but more. We’ve really been getting some innovative things coming out lately
Wow, this is an amazing tool for fixing issues! It might be the most useful EQ I’ve seen in a long while! Kudos for Eventide for doing something other than another old-gear emulation. Fantastic!
Mind Blown 21:22 . I knew that this was useful, but you just gave real perspective. I thoroughly enjoyed this video and I'm glad that I got a very useful tool, out of the million eqs I bought over the years. LOL
It kinda reminds me of multiband compression but with a little more control. Instead of just messing with attack/release of a frequency band to manage transients, you have a transient shaper built within each EQ band... That's pretty cool!
Wow, terrific plug-in demo. You make it so digestible, Mike! Such a useable tool, especially where source recordings may suffer for the at home studio. This and RX8 could really clean up & improve tracking for the budding home producer. Cheers!
I'm going t eventually get split EQ when theres a good sale I already have the Physion MK ll this has some of those split algorithms not as thorough though it's more of a multi effects with EQ , Can you go over the PA Kirchoff EQ ?
I wonder if similar effect is possible by using two parallel compressors with attack/release set for transient on one and tonal handling on other compressor ?
Boz Digital Labs' Transgressor is one of my favorite plugins & used in every mix due to its ability to EQ the transient & sustain portions separately. I have used it for years to remove cymbal bleed from my drum tracks. So, this idea is not new, but what really is? I do prefer that your EQ frequencies in the transient & sustain portions are not the same in Transgressor, but this plugin gives you more bands to use so maybe that difference doesn't matter in practice. Either way, plugins like this are a godsend.
One big difference is that the Transgressor is level/threshold dependent as far as transient detection is concerned, and make you more in control of what is concidered "a transient". This one is not. This one detects transient more like the SPL Transient designer (not level dependent)... I love the Transgressor, but this one is different enough to earn its place in my plugin folder... This one also have the panning features, which can come in super handy :-)
This is the new kid on the EQ/Transient block and an absolutely must have for both audio repair and enhancement. I see a slew of creative possibilities as well with the M/S and panning capabilities of the separated transient and tonal information. I've been waiting for something like this in a single plugin. The only thing I think they need to add is the option to set the bands to dynamic mode. Hopefully, this will come in an update.
Thank you Mr. White, excellent video as always! Any way to insert third-party plugins separately on the transient and tonal outputs? While SplitEQ already knocks it out of the park, the ability to insert plugins would knock it out of the county, IMHO.
Hi Mike!! Thanks for the video! Quick question, what was your cpu tax experience using multiple instances? Is it average or a little heavy? Thank you!!
I bought this an honestly its not very good. Hardly can hear any pleasant differences when using this. Not sure what's the big deal. Eventide should just stay with effect pedals. Those are great
If you own SlickEQ M, and either of Melda MB crossovers or Entropy EQ, you can do this. I wish they’d just make them into one plugin like Eventide did, it’s very useful. Parametric EQs have probably the best workflow of any kind of audio tool, they are so intuitive. It’s why I enjoy dynamic EQ, Spectre and SlickEQ M so much.
Thanks Benzon.. Folks seem stuck on comparing it to existing EQs or other plugins. It’s a challenge for us to explain that what we’re doing is fundamentally different and new. It’s gratifying to see that the folks that give it a try, get it.

Hi Peter. How close are we to high-end hardware with this? Also, any hardware modeling used?
Thanks

Literally on every mix at this point.

The eventide team are a very clever bunch. Well done to them.
This is excellent - a tool that I could have used for years, and so nicely put together into one GUI. Thanks, Mike!

Wow - what strange magic is this!? Nice demo Mike. I'm certainly trying this out..
BTW I recommend all check Mike's courses they're the best.
Great video as always
Man, the possibilities! Thanks for the clear and thoughtful demo as always 😀
This is a real swiss army knife! Great examples, Mike!
Was just waiting for the Micheal white review
Very useful partner with pro Q3. Thank you 🙏🏾 for the nice review
Great video. Amazing how many cool characters the SplitEq can add to a mix. Using it on my Master bus,
It kinda reminds me of multiband compression but with a little more control. Instead of just messing with attack/release of a frequency band to manage transients, you have a transient shaper built within each EQ band... That's pretty cool!
This is a truly exciting plugin, can not wait to try it!
Eventide says SplitEQ uses the same technology as the physion plugin but with a different algorithm
I wondered if it was cuz Physion was the first thing I thought of too

Transgressor 2 is even better.
how is it in terms of cpu usage?
This is thing is EFFING CRAY.
(Staring at my old EQ's like...what have I been doing with my life.)
So this is suited for corrective work of the finished, mix pre pos tmaster?.

Still kicking Ass.
I don’t see how you can watch any of the demos for this and not be able to justify purchasing it before even demoing it
Fantastic.
Watch out Pro Q3... there's a new sheriff in town
Thank you Mr. White, excellent video as always! Any way to insert third-party plugins separately on the transient and tonal outputs? While SplitEQ already knocks it out of the park, the ability to insert plugins would knock it out of the county, IMHO.
A separate bus for each maybe?
Hi Mike!! Thanks for the video! Quick question, what was your cpu tax experience using multiple instances? Is it average or a little heavy? Thank you!!
I found that CPU was low. Obviously latency was through the roof but that doesn't matter anyway.
@@russangel thank you, I found very little to no problems so far 👊
Cant you just use dynamic EQ and adjust the attack

What software do you use to record these videos?

I have sonible Entropy EQ+ but it is nothing alike SplitEQ. SplitEQ way better and usable

Loved it on single tracks can get artifacts on whole mixes tho :(((
