BASIQ is an acronym for Baxandall Simulation Equalizer, a free 3-band
equalizer plugin with photorealistic graphics from Kuassa. As the name
implies, the engine is modeled after the design of the classic Baxandall
Equalizer, well known for its smooth shelves and natural-sounding response,
similar to the tone control of hi-fi systems. The simple controls allow you to
shape your source material appropriately and concisely, opening up air,
applying shimmer, or giving an extra oomph to the low end where needed.
This straightforward equalizer is well-suited for both mixing and mastering
purposes, though the neutral characteristic of basiQ lends itself as more of a
sweetening device or to give a transparent tilt to your mixes, rather than
surgical frequency correction. It is best paired on the master channel with the
Kratos Maximizer, another audio processing plugin from Kuassa, Inc.
