With extended frequency controls, it is suitable for mastering or surgical equalization. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDescription \u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGyratec XIV carries the authentic sound of a cult line of passive EQ units. Our rendition of this classic features the same parallel filter topology as its predecessor while bringing its versatility and potential to a new level. Gyratec XIV features an extra mono mode, making it suitable for any sound source or application. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat makes the Gyratec XIV both a powerful mastering equalizer and a precise surgical tool is the unique behavior of the variable Q setting. When a band is set to boost, the Q is rather wide. When set to cut, the sharpness of the filter becomes much more narrow and aggressive, approaching a notch in extreme settings. When used on stereo sources, the Gyratec circuit topology subtly widens the stereo image. When applied on a Mix Bus that effect carves more space in the mix without adding any audible artifacts or phase distortion. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHistory \u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe hardware original behind Gyratec XIV was unique for its parallel G14 filter design which allows for a set of inductors and capacitors to switch in and out of the circuit combined with a tube-based makeup gain\/output stage. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne of the unique qualities of this unit is the behavior of the variable “Q” setting. When a band is set to “boost”, the “Q” is rather wide. When set to “cut” however, the sharpness of the filter becomes much more narrow and aggressive, approaching a notch in extreme settings. That makes the Gyratec XIV both a powerful mastering equalizer and a precise surgical tool. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIncluded versions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNative Plugin: Runs on your Mac or PC without any additional hardware needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSynergy Core Real-Time: Runs in real time with no perceptible latency on compatible Synergy Core devices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApply lush mastering equalization or precise surgical corrections \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInfuse your tracks with the authentic thickness, depth, and character of the hardware unit \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA truly passive EQ design now recreated faithfully in the digital domain \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecord in real-time or mix with Gyratec XIV – now with any interface and DAW \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cp\u003eRequirements:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emac\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ecpu\u003c\/strong\u003e:Intel or Apple Silicon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eram\u003c\/strong\u003e:8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003edisk\u003c\/strong\u003e:1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eversion\u003c\/strong\u003e:macOS 11 Big Sur and up \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003enotes\u003c\/strong\u003e:Recommended: macOS 14 Sonoma and up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eadditional_requirements\u003c\/strong\u003e:Stable internet connection is required for download.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003einternet_required\u003c\/strong\u003e:1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003esupport\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e64_bit\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eplugins\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVST-3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAU\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAAX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ewindows\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ecpu\u003c\/strong\u003e:Intel i3 \/ AMD Ryzen 1st gen and up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eram\u003c\/strong\u003e:8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003edisk\u003c\/strong\u003e:1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eversion\u003c\/strong\u003e:10\/11 \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003enotes\u003c\/strong\u003e:64-bit version with latest Microsoft Updates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eadditional_requirements\u003c\/strong\u003e:Stable internet connection is required for download.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003einternet_required\u003c\/strong\u003e:1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003esupport\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e64_bit\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eplugins\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVST-3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAAX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eVideos:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antelope Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57410888008012,"sku":"CHE-1276-26","price":153.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0924\/4652\/3724\/files\/Gyratek-XIV_05f484fa-fa9c-462d-a584-8c4988a45cb1.png?v=1777512815","url":"https:\/\/pluginbay.net\/products\/antelope-audio-gyratec-xiv-1","provider":"Pluginbay","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
