01Overview

The RZ062 Equalizer is an effects plugin from Audified that reproduces two EQ modules originally designed in Germany in the 1960s for mixing consoles. Instead of sweeping across frequencies, the controls adjust a set of preselected fixed parameters. The plugin is available in VST3, AU and AAX formats for Windows and macOS, and includes a trial version.

03In depth

Two Vintage EQ Models in One Bundle

The bundle contains two separate EQ plugins. The RZ062a module uses a central knob that rotates the entire frequency curve around 650 Hz, raising the bass while lowering the treble at the same time.

The RZ062b module uses a presence knob that lets you choose one of four frequencies (1.4, 2, 2.8 and 4 kHz) and adjust its gain simultaneously. Audified describes this as a gentle, sensitive way to help a sound cut through a mix.

Modeling and Workflow Controls

Audified says the models were built with white-box modeling, using circuit analysis, mathematical equations and measurement-based fitting. The developer reports that more than 200 circuit components were emulated, including three triodes and input and output transformers.

The plugin adds independent left/right channel tweaking and mid/side operation, along with calibration, input and output level control, and an auto output parameter. These controls make the EQs suitable for detailed mastering work as well as tracking and mixing.
