Kuassa have released Efektor TiLQ, available as a FREE download.
TilQ Equalizer is a dual-shelving spectral balance equalizer plugin, designed for fast, intuitive tone shaping. It’s built to give you immediate results with minimal effort, making it the perfect companion for mixing engineers, music producers, and creators of all skill levels.
Whether you’re balancing individual tracks, shaping a full mix, or adding the final polish during mastering, TilQ Equalizer helps you get there with a single, powerful control.
TiLQ stands for Tilt Equalizer, a classic concept in EQ design that shifts the overall tonal balance around a central frequency. When you turn the Tilt knob clockwise, the plugin gently boosts high frequencies while attenuating the lows. Turn it counterclockwise, and the opposite happens—more low end, less brightness.
This kind of EQ is incredibly musical, perfect for adjusting tone quickly without destroying the natural balance of your source. It’s especially effective on full-range material like buses, instrument groups, or even a full mix. Use it to brighten a dull vocal, warm up a cold digital synth, or simply give your mix that extra bit of clarity or weight.
Kuassa didn’t stop at just one knob. TilQ Equalizer includes several flexible controls to tailor the response to your exact needs:
- Smooth HPF and LPF – Built-in high-pass and low-pass filters let you trim unnecessary frequencies without needing a second plugin. Great for cleaning up subs or taming high-end harshness.
- Adjustable Tilt Slope and Center Frequency – You’re not locked into a fixed tilt curve. Set the center frequency around which the tilt operates, and fine-tune the Q/slope to make the curve gentler or more aggressive.
- Dark and Light UI Modes – Choose between Dark or Light interface modes based on your workflow and studio lighting. It’s easy on the eyes—no matter where or when you’re working.
- Resizable user interface – TiLQ features a fully resizable GUI that adapts to your screen and workflow, from compact laptop sessions to high-res multi-monitor rigs. Both Horizontal and Vertical mode.
- Precision Made Easy – Right-click any knob to type in exact values, or double-click to reset to default. Small features that make a big difference when speed and accuracy matter.Why You’ll Love It
