Overview

The VEQ-5 is inspired by one of the most famous and renowned equalizers in studio history - focussing on the power range frequencies from 200Hz to 7kHz it is aimed at cleaning up and sweetening vocals. But it also does a great job on guitars and keys.

Features

Authentic circuit emulation

Our real time SPICE type component based circuit simulation approach allows to authentically capture the sound and feel of the analog counterpart in all nuances. Every crucial part of the circuit, including the passive filter network, audio transformers and amplifier tube stages have been faithfully modeled.

SSE2 optimized code

DSP operations are pipelined using the SSE2 instruction set. This ensures highest possible performance operation despite very complex computations.

Auto-adjusted oversampling for maximum audio transparency

Aliasing artifacts are efficiently attenuated using a low latency linear phase Dolph-Chebyshev poly-phase design. The oversampling is auto-adjusted to your session‘s sample rate to save valuable CPU power while offering the most transparent sound possible.

HighDPI / Retina support

All our plug-Ins support high pixel density on Mac OSX and Windows to bring you the most enjoyable user experience on high DPI displays. Please refer to your manual to find whether your DAW is HighDPI capable if you‘re working on Windows.

Cardinals RB ruined would-be TD with most embarrassing fumble before goal line by Yelihovich (2025-10-07)

"Cardinals RB ruined would-be TD with most embarrassing fumble before goal line It really shouldn't be that difficult of a concept for football players: You want to hold onto the football through the goal line beyond any doubt. Players know the risks, but it still happens. And the premature celebration claimed yet another victim on Sunday afternoon. During the Week 5 matchup between the Cardinals and Titans, sparingly used backup running back Emari Demercado broke free through the line on third down and was off to the races. Demercado looked like he was destined for an untouched, 72-yard touchdown run, but we could see the complete lack of awareness unfold as he approached the end zone.

VEQ-5 by Felix from "Astral Flex" (2025-01-29)

"One of those beautiful EQ plugins that can be pushed very far without sounding outlandish. Whenever my melodic instruments sound flat and boring, a little boost on this thing really brings it to life. I personally like to boost vocals either at 300/500 or 1-1.5k by about 3db and cut with a dynamic EQ."

"The VEQ-5 plugin is a must have for that broad, sweet eq that a Pultec is known for. The tonal shaping of a midrange eq is more important to me than the program type eq because most music lives in the midrange, and this plugin does a great job of sculpting a sound without sounding harsh."

"Digital EQs and compressors rarely stack up against their analog counterparts. I often wonder why some companies continually release so many variations of plugins that weren't capturing the essence and consumer need of the original in the first place. That being said, Black Rooster's VEQ Bundle has nailed the sound of these EQs! Nothing is rivaling the VEQ Bundle. Loving it guys! Keep up the good work."
