I agree with pretty much everything in this video. Personally, the best part for me is since I just purchased the Pro Q3 last week, the upgrade to the Q4 was FREE. 🤯

@compucorder64Күн бұрын
I'm annoyed, because I bought it in September, and the upgrade price is about what I paid for FabFilter Pro Q3. Doesn't feel like FabFilter look after their existing companies very well, and the upgrade prices are very steep. If you compare the upgrade discount to what other offer, like Ableton say, nevermind Reaper et al. The timing of the release, just after Black Friday sales seems cynical too. Not that FabFilter prices were great in those sales either. Honestly, it's enough to make me pivot off FabFilter Q, and toward Sonible and Kirchoff. I like Pro-R and Saturn, but I've been starting to prefer Sonible and Kirchoff anyway. I have Soothe2, so I don't know how much I need this upgrade, certainly not £75 need.

75 pounds is roughly $90. The going price for fabfilter plugins (their flagship plugins) is $175. So they are giving upgrades a 50% discount... Not too bad i don't have anything from fabfilter other than pro L at the moment. Glad i waited before getting q3

I love how we’re so stoked about an EQ! Goes to show that good actual useful tools are what’s important, not those fancy snake oil plugin-of-the-week gimmicks… those can be fun, but Pro-Q is my chef’s knife and it just got a whole lot sharper! Upgrading right this minute!

This is sooooo soooo soooooo game changer!!! It easily replaces a bunch of plugins, such as other eqs, multiband compressors, Soothe2, Gullfoss, and even some character eqs with the saturation that this has built in, all in all with a better control, a really niiiiceeee UI... This is just unparalled right now. The only thing that is missing, tho this is asking a lot, is split functionality for transients and tonal eq such as SplitEQ by Eventide. If they integrate this, they become the ultimate EQ, period.

"Shut up and take my money unreal" lol. I stayed until the end and used your link. Thanks for the overview and all your videos. The things that got me were 1. the A/R settings (which Waves has had forever), 2. the idea that it replaces multiple devices on a chain (for us CPU-challenged people), and 3. seeing all the different instances at a glance. The last seems like it would be nice so that if you're hearing something messed up in a certain frequency range, you could look quickly and see which instruments you might have some room to mess around with or where you might reconsider some changes that seemed a good idea at the time. Cheers, Colt!

With this update, FabFilter had the potential to outpace its only remaining competitor in the market, Sonible. However, the Instance View in Pro-Q4 lacks a feature to unmask all tracks with just a few clicks. Considering the excellent overview already offered in the plugin, such a function would have been a brilliant addition. It's a missed opportunity-looks like SmartEQ will remain my go-to.
