Avid Announces Massenburg DesignWorks MDW Hi-Res Parametric EQ 5 Plug-In Now Compatible with Pro Tools 11
With unprecedented clarity, smoothness, and excellent high-frequency response, MDW Hi-Res Parametric EQ 5 plug-in helps Avid Pro Tools 11 users achieve optimal audio definition in their mixes
WHAT: Avid® and Massenburg DesignWorks announce the MDW Hi-Res Parametric EQ 5® plug-in is now compatible with Pro Tools® 11. The Massenburg DesignWorks® Hi-Res Parametric EQ plug-in, developed by the creator of the parametric equaliser George Massenburg, targets frequencies with precision and refines the human interface, interoperability, and automation integration. Version 5 offers new AAX Native 64 and AAX DSP 64 formats for compatibility with Pro Tools 11.1 and above, providing the flexibility to use the EQ across the entire Pro Tools 10-based product line, including Pro Tools|HDX systems, for the highest possible sound quality. Avid Pro Tools software redefines professional music and audio production for today’s workflows. From all-new audio and video engines and turbocharged 64-bit performance, to expanded metering and new HD video workflows, Pro Tools 11 enables users to take on the most demanding sessions and maximise creativity.
Massenburg, who has spent a lot of time refining this AAX 64-bit version, says, “The latest MDW® EQ5-AAX DSP continues the MDW tradition of highest-quality, double-precision maths, resulting in the highest measurable performance–the lowest artifacts–of any commercially available digital equaliser. The MDW EQ user interface presents a finely tuned EQ human interface, with controls that reflect a deep understanding of the ergonomics of EQ control and use, and the expectations of what an engineer expects to hear when a knob is turned. MDW EQ controls are always easily readable and controls are easily settable. The MDW EQ and the MDW EQ5-AAX continue to be the standard against which all other EQ plug-ins are measured.”
WHO: George Massenburg invented the world’s first parametric equaliser and built the de facto standard for parametric EQ, the GML 8200. He founded George Massenburg Labs, a pioneering company that has released an extensive range of innovative console automation devices, analogue signal processors, microphone preamplifiers and power supplies, all based on his original circuit designs. Massenburg has recorded and produced more than 200 albums and his extraordinary studio skills have earned international recognition and four Grammys, including the Grammy for Technical Achievement in 1998, as well as numerous Mix Magazine TEC Awards. Through his Massenburg DesignWorks line of high-performance software products, he has redefined the concept of the plug-in EQ.
