Metric Halo Sonic EQ: Precision and Musicality Redefined
The Metric Halo Sonic EQ is a modern reimagining of the groundbreaking equalizer originally developed by Dr. James A. Moorer for Lucasfilm’s SoundDroid project and later refined for Sonic Solutions mastering DAWs. Renowned for its musical sound quality, surgical precision, and unmatched versatility, Sonic EQ has been the go-to tool for professionals in mastering, post-production, recording, and live sound for decades.
Now available as a 6-band fully parametric EQ plugin for macOS and Windows, the latest version of Sonic EQ uses an advanced 64-bit state-space structure for low-noise processing and unparalleled flexibility. Each band supports 2nd to 8th order filters, allowing you to craft precise and complex EQ curves that maintain the natural clarity of your audio.
Whether you’re working on forensic restoration, sound design, or high-end mastering, Sonic EQ offers the tools you need to achieve perfect results—faster and better than ever before.
