Zynaptiq Releases UNFILTER — Adaptive Tonal Contour Linearization Plugin

Founded in 2011 out of Hannover, Germany, Zynaptiq is a software developer that specializes in processing, analyzing, categorizing and generating audio-visual data.

Their new plugin, UNFILTER, is the swiss army knife of EQ plugins – at a glance we see an aesthetically appealing graphic EQ but in reality UNFILTER is capable of much more, with myriad applications for music production, mastering, audio post, sound design, broadcast, and forensics. Guitar cabinet coloration removal, comb filtering removal, and drone synthesis are just a few of the many intriguing possibilities of UNFILTER.

Exercise your audio brain with UNFILTER, an extremely versatile frequency response tool.

UNFILTER is available now for $399 MSRP. The plugin is available for Mac and PC in AU, RTAS, VST and AAX formats. Here is a deeper look into UNFILTER’s many features from Zynaptiq:

“UNFILTER is a real-time plug-in that removes filtering effects, such as comb filtering, resonance, or excessive equalization – effectively linearizing the frequency response of a signal automatically. UNFILTER can also apply a detected filter response to another signal, or export it to disk as an impulse response file (WAV), and can perform mastering grade adaptive, free-form, and graphic equalization. Applications include removing room resonance, repairing poorly mic’d production sound or musical recordings, enhancing the intelligibility of speech recordings in film sound, broadcast, ENG and forensics, adapting multiple sounds to blend better with each other, adaptively re-balancing the frequency response of mixed music, general purpose high resolution automatic equalization, and creatively designing new sounds.

The UNFILTER features at a glance:

• Automatically detect and remove resonances, equalization, roll-offs and the effects of comb filtering from musical, location, dialog and surveillance recordings.

• Apply the measured filter response to other signals to place them in the same “acoustic world”.

• Export the measured filter response to or import it from a linear- or minimum-phase impulse response file (WAV).

• Mastering grade adaptive, free-form and graphic equalization.

• Extremely steep 96dB/octave shelving high-pass filter.

•Output limiter for unsupervised use in batch processing applications.

• Highly time-efficient workflow and UI
