Open input audio ↗Open processed audio ↗Bevel EQ features
A 24-band dynamic EQ plugin for resonances that come and go, broad tone moves and stereo cleanup. Set each band as a bell EQ, a shelf, a notch or a pass filter, place it in stereo, left, right, mid or side, and work directly on the spectrum.
Clean up the problem. Keep the character.
Cut rumble, isolate a resonance or add a broad shelf on the same curve. When a harsh frequency comes and goes, use a dynamic bell or shelf instead of a constant cut. Each band can work on the full stereo signal, one channel, the mid or the sides.
Tame harsh peaks as they hit
Bell and shelf bands have threshold, signed range, attack and release on the DYN page. Let a dynamic bell reduce an aggressive frequency when it crosses threshold, with signed range and timing you control.
EQ the middle or sides alone
Each band carries its own placement. Place a shelf or corrective cut in the mid or sides without building separate EQ chains.
Clean up lows with steep cuts
High-pass and low-pass slopes run from 12 to 96 dB/oct. Twenty-four slots can take bell, shelf, notch, high-pass or low-pass shapes.
Solo a band to hear your cut
SOLO on the band plate auditions the band's own frequency region, filtered to the band's shape.
Every control is in the Bevel EQ manual.
Band types
| Band type | What it does | Reach for it on |
|---|---|---|
| Bell | Boost or cut around a centre, Q from broad to surgical | Resonances, presence, body |
| Shelf | Lift or lower everything past a corner | Air, warmth, mud |
| Notch | Remove a single frequency | Hum, whistles, ringing |
| High pass | 12 to 96 dB/oct floor control | Rumble, stage noise, low mud |
| Low pass | 12 to 96 dB/oct ceiling control | Hiss, harsh cymbals, lo-fi moves |

Compare two EQ settings
A/B stores two full EQ states. Compare at similar levels. A/B does not adjust gain for you.
Freeform bands
Twenty-four slots can take bell, shelf, notch, high-pass or low-pass shapes, and the band plate sits inside the spectrum beside the band you select.
Filter slopes
High-pass and low-pass slopes run from 12 to 96 dB/oct. Band 6 here is a 96 dB/oct high-pass at 32 Hz, the near-brickwall, and its plate shows the slope.
Pre/post analyzer
Turn on Show pre and post together in Options to draw both traces under the summed response, from the program material the meter path actually sees.
Dynamic bands
Bell and shelf bands have threshold, signed range, attack and release on the DYN page. DYN ON/OFF enables processing separately; switching pages alone does not change the sound. In VST3 and AU hosts a dynamic band can also listen to an external sidechain: right-click the band, choose Dynamic source, External sidechain, and route a track to Bevel's sidechain input.
Stereo, mid or side, per band
Each band carries its own placement. Band 5 here lifts the sides only: its plate reads Side and the S tag sits under the node.
Per-band solo
SOLO on the band plate auditions the band's own frequency region, filtered to the band's shape.
Exact values, typed
Click a readout in the band plate and type the value in its own units. Return commits it, Escape cancels.
A/B states, on the bar
A/B stores two full EQ states. PRE/POST chooses the main analyzer trace; Options can show both together. Compare at similar levels. A/B does not adjust gain for you.
Edit on the node
Double-click a node and its value bubble opens on the curve: FREQ, GAIN and Q, each a field you can type into without leaving the display.
Bevel EQ in a session
Vocal cleanup
High-pass rumble, use band solo to locate a resonance, then shape the top with a shelf.
Kick and bass
Send the kick to Bevel EQ's sidechain input and let a dynamic low shelf on the bass dip only while the kick hits (VST3 and AU).
Fast tonal decisions
Compare pre/post spectra under the curve, type exact values and keep two settings in A/B.
Free tools for the same job: EQ Frequency Chart (ranges, bands, notes) and Loudness Meter (LUFS and true peak).

Questions about Bevel EQ
Which bands can be dynamic?
Bell, low-shelf and high-shelf bands. Use DYN ON/OFF to enable dynamics; the DYN page only reveals its controls. Notch and pass shapes retain those settings while they are inactive.
Can bands use different stereo placements?
Yes. Each band can work in stereo, left, right, mid or side.
Can I see the input and output together?
Yes. Enable Show pre and post together in Options. PRE/POST chooses which tap is the main trace.
Can I move the band controls out of the way?
Yes. Drag the plate’s grip or empty area to reposition it inside the graph. Double-click the grip to restore its automatic position.
