McDSP AE400 Active EQ Native v7 combines conventional tone shaping with level-responsive equalization, letting you adjust frequencies continuously or only when the signal triggers a response. Its four fully overlapping bands offer separate fixed and active gain controls, plus bandwidth adjustment for focused corrections or broader tonal changes. Each active band responds to its own threshold, attack, release and ratio settings, with triggering from the input or a selected sidechain signal. Use it to manage frequency buildups, smooth uneven tones or make EQ moves that follow the performance rather than stay static. Real-time analyzers, key-signal monitoring and editable response curves help you see and hear what each band is doing. With zero-latency algorithms, mono and stereo versions, and band linking, AE400 suits producers seeking detailed dynamic EQ control, alongside post-production and live-sound engineers. This is the Native edition, not the AAX DSP HD version.
