SilQ Equalizer - where should it go next? Get involved :)

Hi all,

Might be a scary business for me, but I was thinking maybe involve users even more in the development of SilQ Equalizer. I get great feedback and suggestions from several sources (forums, twitter, facebook and email) and (like on GuitarCapo+) this have impact on how the apps "lives" and develops. I'm pretty sure this is well known stuff for most developers too :)

I thought I could start here to get the feel of what is most 'wanted'.

My 'gut feeling' tells me adding an Audio Extension Unit to it is high up there (and the process looking on this is started). Though, it could be a thousand other things I can't see.

So, shoot, and then it might end up in some sort of a poll

Cheers :)

    Finger drawing, tweaking so many parts is too slow for this age.

    2 Spectrums (pre (the original) and post) plotted on same pane window. Users can show or hide that window at the time on drawing EQ.

    Lastly, AU format if you can. This AU format is not a big plus if SilQ can not decrease its CPU usage. That is the priority for using AU format EQ.

    zMors AU and Auria Pro Q2 all got average around 2 - 3 % CPU consumption per track on Air2.

    Strange, when I press quote, it has swapped the top 2 items around ?
    Anyway, a combination of these that had a frequency plot in the background, with the ability to draw a curve over the top to control the individual frequencies...this would allow a view where you can display the entire frequency range, as you would not have to worry about having enough width on the sliders to adjust them individually, and then still have the ability to use the current view for fine tuning.
    Hope this makes sense.

    Lastly, AU format if you can. This AU format is not a big plus if SilQ can not decrease its CPU usage. That is the priority for using AU format EQ.

    Agree with this, and on top of processor usage, as a graphic type EQ as opposed to parameteric, I am far less likely to want to use it on lots of individual tracks, more likely on a master output or single input. So being AUx would only really give me state saving, which is still a big plus though.

    About the spec analyzer I was thinking:
    and what if the sliders could also act as per-band meters? With a pre and post switch without the need of another screen and, from my perspective, keeping the experience more compact, with a direct feedback of the changes?

  • The AU is pretty vital for FX, much more than in the sound modules

    SilQ sounds very awesome stereo speaking.

    It just has no direct way to speed up things and has no visual measurement to feedback on the result what has been changed that is the problem on these days. Because the average time consumed on that can shy away many fun players. They (me included) want to pick something ASAP with quality.

  • Forgot to mention the MID/Side switch

  • +1 AU + Universal + mid/side :)

  • AU, and I'm still pushing for a wet/dry mix slider :wink:

    Having said that, the update looks great. Looking forward to running it through its paces!

    Great idea. I was pondering how and where you would put an input/output spectrogram without messing up the interface which I think is perfect as-is. Maybe you could just have two colored lines behind each fader that represent the current input/output levels.

    My list (in priority order)
    1. AU Extension
    2. Per-band input and output monitoring (able to switch off to save CPU)
    3. Mid-Side processing
    4. All of the above while not changing the essentials of the interface because it's just about perfect IMO as it is.

    I also want to say that I really, really like SiLQ. For some reason I am able to get the results I need far more quickly than I've ever been able to with parametric EQs. Just being able to reach for those faders rather than move around a couple of dots and then mess with the "Q", then mess move some more, repeat, repeat ... suits me perfectly. I hope any improvements hang on to that essential simplicity.

    And that we get to pay for them somehow.

  • This is really helpful - already enough to make a plan. Awesome, thanks!

    About CPU: the update in for approval now is less CPU hungry. Keep in mind that there is 64 different filters in there - I´m glad I´m not an iPad :neutral:

    Again, thank you all for using your time on this!

  • You have enough, but I have an odd request for the future. I would like a blend between two presets linked to one control knob, that could also be midi controlled. I could use it as a type of filter.

    Plan? You mean it's not done yet?? ;)

  • Another vote for EU, I mean, AU :). I don't really use it much because it's not AU yet but would use it all the time if so. It's not just about multiple instances but proper host integration and saving with projects.

    Keeping SilQ as much fun as possible. Everything should be as curious as Pro Q2. Everything should be finger drawing and toying on a fly. Everything can have a CPU burst but average consumption should be reasonable low. A very beautiful EQ spectrum plot can solve many and many unwillingness for fingers. They expect it a high quality EQ graph more than Pro Q2, from which the price made it a worthy looking for staying and tuning it.

    AU format is for quicks, not for the main master power. SilQ can be the final mastering EQ. The two perspectives is very different. And mostly I have not seen a colorfully beautiful vectored AUx app.
