01Overview

MFreeformEqualizer is an EQ effect from MeldaProduction built around a freeform curve rather than fixed bands. Instead of adjusting a handful of filters, you shape the frequency response directly and place cuts or boosts exactly where a problem sits. Its FFT-based linear-phase design is the core of the plugin. The developer also positions it for creative spectral processing, not only for fixing mix problems. It is available in VST3, VST2, AU and AAX formats for Windows and macOS.

Freeform EQ Curve and Sound Shaping

The main feature is the freeform curve, with a range of -64 dB to +64 dB. Edits are made with the MeldaProduction Envelope System (MES), so the curve can be drawn and adjusted as a continuous shape across the spectrum.

Because the processing is FFT-based and linear-phase, the developer describes it as suited to surgical corrections and experimental spectral effects alike. Narrow notches for resonances and broad tonal changes can be built in the same curve.

Spectral Analyzer, Sonogram and Workflow

An integrated spectral analyzer and sonogram help you see what you are changing. The developer highlights two display options: super-resolution, which gives higher resolution in the bass, and deharmonization, which makes fundamental frequencies easier to read.

The interface supports resizable and stylable GUI windows, textual value editing and zooming. Parameters can be mapped to MIDI controllers with MIDI learn, and presets can be saved globally and shared through the online preset exchange if that feature is enabled.

Surround and Technical Capabilities

MFreeformEqualizer processes mono and stereo signals as well as up to 8 channels of surround audio, which the developer notes makes it relevant for film and game audio work. It uses 64-bit processing with an unlimited sampling rate, with 384 kHz recommended as the maximum, and is optimized for SSE and SSE2 processors. All parameters are automatable.
