FilterBank, McDSP’s first product, is an equalizer plug-in that rivals any analog EQ with its flexible design and substantial feature collection. It can emulate any EQ, or be used to create a distinct custom EQ.
FilterBank is three plug-ins: E606 (parametric, high and low shelving EQ, high and low pass filters), F202 (steep high and low pass filtering with resonant Q control), and P606 (P606 - parametric EQ with variable Q modes). Since its debut in 1998, FilterBank has become a legend within the audio community. With its unique Peak, Slope, Dip controls and variable Q modes FilterBank can emulate any EQ, or be used to create a distinct custom EQ.

Peak-Slope-Dip
You can literally get under the hood in the E606 and adjust the fundamental algorithm circuit for low and high shelving EQ. Control the overshoot (Peak), the transition (Slope), and the undershoot in the shelving EQ response.
Phase is Back!
Make polarity (phase) adjustments for the left and right channels - independently!
RTA
Use the Real-Time Analyzer to monitor how the frequency spectrum is being affected. The RTA feature is only available for AAX Native, AU, and VST3 plug-in formats.

High Pass Filter
The HPF is capable of -6, -12, -18, or -24 dB/Oct attenuation. The F202 plug-in additional offers resonance (peak) control of the filter shapes - useful for creating synth-like filter sweeps.
Parametric EQ
FilterBank models a wide variety of vintage and contemporary equalizer and filter implementations.
PSD
You can literally get under the hood in the E606 and adjust the fundamental algorithm circuit for low and high shelving EQ. Control the overshoot (Peak), the transition (Slope), and the undershoot in the shelving EQ response.
