Goose EQ A New EQ for iOS
Author View comments Tags Tags: , , , , , , ,

The mission for Goose EQ is to manipulate audio with 21st century tools, instead of limiting ourselves with 20th century hardware and concepts. Goose EQ discards the limitations of past hardware and harnesses the future’s computing power. We have designed the UI with only the the physics of audio and the current touch interface in mind,dropping all the baggage of the past. One thing to keep in mind is this is a subscription based app so you will pay a small annual fee to keep it working on your device.

Goose EQ is the next generation of equalizers. It is a sleek stereo equalizer with 11 different types of filters for fine grain audio control. Designed especially for touch screens, no effort was made to recall EQ hardware of the past. Without the limitations of old hardware, Goose EQ takes a bold step into today’s world of touch gestures and high powered processors. As a result, it looks and feels great on any iOS device.

It’s not just good looking and easy to use; there’s power behind this clean user interface. It boasts:
– As many bands as your hardware can handle
– Linked or independent stereo control
– Analyzer for each channel
– Precise control of Gain, Frequency, and Bandwidth with gestures and text input
– Multiple EQs at once
– Hardware inputs & outputs
– AudioUnit v3
– Save your own presets
– Built in Presets
– Bypass a single band or a whole EQ.
– Multiple filters:
– Parametric
– High & Low Pass
– Resonant High & Low Pass
– Band Pass & Stop
– High & Low Shelf
– Resonant High & Low Shelf

To get full use of the EQ there is an auto renewing subscription with the following details:
“One Year Equipment Rental”

What you get:
– Unlimited custom presets
– Unlock all factory presets
– Concurrent equalizers

How it works:
– Starting a subscription will give you the full version of the app
– There is a 2 week demo period in which you can cancel and never get charged anything
– Payment will be charged to your iTunes Account at confirmation of purchase
– The rental automatically renews unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24-hours before the end of the current period
– Your account will be charged for renewal within 24-hours prior to the end of the current period
– Subscriptions may be managed and auto-renewal may be turned off by going to your iTunes Account Settings after purchase

Revenue model:
We believe that iOS hardware is good enough to do great things with audio, yet there is very little good software to run on it. We believe this is because of the current revenue model: pay once and expect updates for life. No one expects to buy a pair of shoes once and have them replaced every year for free. So we are going to try subscription with various checkpoints along the way.

We will be doing a yearly subscription. We will continue fixing bugs, adding features, and updating for the first ten months after first release. At that point we will look at our current active subscriptions. If there are enough to support further maintenance we will continue to keep the app working on the latest OS and hardware. If we do not get enough revenue, we will set the subscription price to $0 a year, and stop development. This means that the people who got on board will be able to use the app until it does not work anymore because of OS updates. Because this pricing model is so different than anything else on the App Store, let’s describe it another way (as a list):

– Subscription-based revenue model.
– If sustainable, we will continuously and features and update (The app will not be abandoned like so many in the current transition to 64 bit).
– If it still proves unsustainable, then current subscribers will be able to continue to use as if they had paid upfront like the typical revenue model.
– Bonus: the subscription will be about 1/4 the price that we would have charged if we were using the old revenue model.
– Bonus: Free trial. Start the subscription. If you don’t think the app is for you, cancel the subscription, and you will not be charged anything.
– Cancel any time.

M/S Processing Mid/Side level adjustments and EQ
Author View comments Tags Tags: , , , , ,

Mid Side Level EQ

M/S Proc is a tool for M/S Processing that enables Mid/Side level adjustments and EQ.

***What is M/S Processing?***
While standard audio processing is done through the Left and Right(L、R) channels, M/S processing divides elements into those at the center(Mid) and those on the left or right(Side). For example, it allows you to adjust the effect of the centrally located vocals or make nuanced changes to the width of the mix.
In addition, tracks with sound pressure levels raised to the maximum in stereo processing can often be found to have additional headroom in the Sides when separated into M/S elements. This means you can increase the sound pressure just by enhancing the Sides.
M/S Proc allows individual level adjustment and EQ processing for Mid and Side channels.

Mid Side Level EQ

ON SALE for LIMITED TIME (50% OFF)!!

***Main features***
+ Mid/Side level adjustment.
+ Mid/Side EQ control with three bands (High, Mid, Low). The Mid is a parametric equalizer.
+ In addition to standalone usage, compatible with Audiobus and Inter-App Audio. Can be combined with other apps.
+ Can adjust sounds brought in from external devices and apps. Also works with WAV and AIFF formats.
If applying to files, you can export your processed tracks as a WAV file.
Exported files can be exported to other apps using the “Open In” function.
+ Also lets you import files from other apps (“Open In” function)
+ You can also import tracks from your Music Library.
+ Presets allow you to save your parameter settings in the file.
+ A universal app that can be used with both iPhone/iPad.

***Other uses***
Although M/S processing is most often used for mastering, in principle by lowering the Mid you can apply a “center cancel.” In this way you can prepare tracks for karaoke or “learning by ear.”
We also recommend sending your file to mimiCopy, our “learning by ear” music player app.
