Introduction to FabFilter Pro-Q 3

[@Ksjskalkwvshwjwvqnam]

I think it's time for Fabfilter to create their own DAW

[@HaNguyen-kn2tg]

Man, that would be a WET DREAM for me!

[@averageviewer5221]

Fabfilter audour pro? As daw name

[@reiniervanzwieten7092]

Call it: "fab fab fab fab fab"

[@funguy8801]

I've been wishing this for years. If FabFilter could bring their sound engineering, design aesthetic and productivity workflow to their own DAW, I would be overjoyed and would likely switch over to their DAW in a heartbeat.

[@LOLCoolJ]

So many features I never knew I wanted. Awesome.

[@kaysha]

I don't need to watch this video to upgrade from Pro-Q 2, but I came to listen to the Dan Worall

[@ostaprobin1189]

Fabfilter has ingenious engineers and designers

[@Frobbl]

They certainly have the best GUI-designers. I love their VSTs let alone for the clear and intuitive interfaces.

Some of the best plug ins and ALWAYS the best demo music. Take my money.

[@FooFighters19]

Yeah, I'd love to know what it is. Reminds me of Jerseyband (jerseyband.bandcamp.com/). Also would love to get FabFilter!

[@xmix5080]

I bought pro-q 2 a few days ago and fab filter gave me a free upgrade to pro-3. Great service!

[@Oscar-kx2du]

Okey, I have no words. The next step is to create your own DAW and rock the scene

[@knumbugs]

I have no w... D'oh!

[@miracleofsound]

Welp. Here come another life changing purchase....

[@ShaharHarshuv]

This has so many complex features but still looks elegant and easy to use for beginners. Which is a true challenge when designing user interfaces. Well done!

[@AlecDrow]

Dan Worrall could sell anything to me!

[@syntaxed2]

Dynamics in a fabfilter eq! Jesus has returned! HAIL THE KING OF EQUALIZERS!

[@user-ik8vy1rg8f]

The speed and ease of use of this beautiful software is S-tier. Makes me tingle.

[@TheOneMonk]

This narrator could explain knitting techniques. And I would still like to listen to him.

[@IntenseCity]

INCREDIBLE, Your Q-Series is now Completely Complete!

[@paulf9814]

FF one of only a few companies you can purchase a plug-in without even demoing it!

[@DavidCarterVideos]

A "no brainer" of an upgrade. The best EQ out there has just got significantly better. Already purchased and looking forward to playing with it. Welcome back Dan. Update: Kinda took it for granted that external side-chain triggering for the dynamic eq would be included. Sadly not. More work to do yet guys!

[@MegaFiredon]

Whats the price on it?

[@DavidCarterVideos]

@@MegaFiredon The link to their website is above. Just take a look there.

[@memeswillneverdie]

It is, it’s hard to find but it’s under the auto tab and click the button next to the threshold meter.

[@Hermiel]

A new FabFilter plug is a bowl of whipped cream and a Dan-Worrall-narrated video is the cherry on top.

[@seemaven]

One certainly has to appreciate that the person machine interface of this EQ is certainly a work of art. Beautiful!

[@marvingimbel1188]

This is THE equalizer. Such a smooth workflow and clean interface, it's incredible. The quality of this EQ (and also every other FabFilter plugin) is unbelievably fine. It's really worth the money.

[@Somnic]

If they managed to implement harmonics tracking as well, they would render virtually every other EQ obsolete even more. Please make this happen FF :D

[@mariomaslik]

you mean like iZotope have done?

[@Somnic]

Mario Maslik Ye like in the new Nectar 3 EQ or in the Surfer EQ

[@alexkid1]

They should, and they should go a step further and make it work with polyfonic sources as well.

[@sebprovision]

I agree. I knew it wasn't going to have it though. We got Dynamic EQ at least

[@DrayClay]

Somnic, now your talking, that would be the dream EQ for me.

[@scottiescott9297]

As a busy, full time medical professional, with a decades-long passion for music (with a strong music theory background), my career and family life have taken me away from music for >10 years. However, right now, I can’t believe how professional-sounding my mixes are turning out. Aside from work, my time is divided into sleep, wife, family, exercise, golf and music production. In my limited spare time it’s amazing to have tools from Fabfilter (and others) that can teach me a ton of info, theory and technique, to allow me to level-up my production skills. With intense music theory refresher courses and great Fabfilter plugins and tutorials (and the easy-to-read user manuals!!), I feel like a musician again. Thank you Fabfilter!!

[@balazun7692]

HI Scottie Scott. Which music theory courses have you been taking?

[@Quant-Beat]

FabFilter is just a bunch of things: EXCELLENT! BEST! AWESOME! SUPERIOR! INCREDIBLE! FANTASTIC! SUPERB! I can continue for eternity, but I have never had any other EQ as a plugin ever since I first got FabFilter. Best ever on earth!

[@Llamapuncher]

I saw my upgrade email this morning at 5:30am. I've never been so excited to wake up.

[@SteveStockmalMusic]

For Spectrum Grab, I just learned a cool trick... So after it does the analysis you can click and hold your mouse in the purple area for a few seconds and it will turn blue, thus freezing the screen. Now, if you stop play you can make your adjustments all together (instead of doing one, waiting a few seconds for it to analyze, doing the next, etc). Note: if you don’t stop play you can still do it, but it will still be analyzing so it might be hard to click on the points accurately. So it’s just a nice time saver.

[@MM4F]

In my day job, I’ve helped organisations across the globe deliver software with lean and agile practices, from banks to defence.. Whatever you guys are doing, keep doing it.. I’ve owned this since it came out, and have to say it’s without hesitation that this is our go to.. Good job, good design, good development.. Kudos! Looking at how Timeless and Saturn have evolved, if that’s the trend, this is going to be even more stunning next evolution..

[@manifestgtr]

Guys, you never fail. It’s a statistical anomaly. Toward the beginning of this video, I was thinking “yeah...I still like my pro-q 2” then by the end, with the various dynamic eq functions, my brain was exploding with practical uses for these features. And you’ve done it again...

[@TheIArocks]

Dan Worrall's introductions are the best. Nice new features!

[@EchoSoundWorks]

His voice is perfect for these types of videos

[@Kifon]

fabfilter has some of the best audio effects. i agree with the comments saying they need to make a daw, i can imagine the workflow just being amazing

[@jorgefrias7889]

Just when I thought these guys couldn't improve an already amazing EQ, and they did it without screwing up the past ones. Im impressed

[@rmirabelle]

This thing is amazing. It's like the FF team read my mind, as for years now, I've used ProMB as my primary equalizer, generally preferring compression to EQ. Q3's built-in compression, which I assumed might just be a tad gimmicky, is actually fantastic as it's SUPER transparent across even large gains or cuts. The ability to overlay spectrums from any other instance is also "fab"ulous.

[@funguy8801]

The best just got better. Thanks FabFilter. :)

[@RoBbeRyGraVe]

I don't know what calms me the most, watching Bob Ross painting or listening to this guy's introductions to new plugins..

[@audioelitist3677]

Really, this is the single best audio filter ever made, bar none.

[@deoananas4745]

I am in love with this tool, I wanna marry this eq

[@KaitavSapreMusic]

The only EQ one ever needs. Amazing work, FabFilter! Hoping to upgrade my Pro-Q 2 at some point. And if only Dan Worrall could do video tutorials for everything.

[@KaitavSapreMusic]

Upgraded to Pro-Q 3 recently. :)

[@Themorningskoop]

Pro-Q 3 is friggin' amazing. I use this every day. I couldn't live without it. Great product. Get Pro-Q 3. It's a must.

[@rdmarc]

Another fantastic product by Fab Filter. And the second song... The Little Robots one. I wish I could find it somewhere. It's haunting me all day. So beautiful.

[@MarkusSommerOfficial]

Who would have thougth that I one day would actually be in love with a piece of software. Using it every day for 6 months now, i find myself coming back to this video just to worship :D

[@flipnap2112]

i think Pro Q4 will be able to cook me dinner and take out my dog for a walk. what a beautiful update and SO much beauty. Every new feature is necessity and non fluff

[@saardean4481]

It`s time for Pro Q 4. With adjustable Attack-Release when in Dynamic mode

[@CarlyonProduction]

This is the one let down to me. I find the dynamic eq only useful in a small number of settings. Most of the time I need attack and release. That and pitch tracking would make this complete

[@Delston05]

I always love the "That's all for now"...mic drop at the end of these. Mind = Blown.

[@Quant-Beat]

Absolutely perfect becomes even more perfect... I can not believe it!

[@theofuqua2599]

As soon as this video finishes, Im updating my most used plug in. Pro Q is a must-have.

[@Mitsch76]

This is simply amazing. The compare function in the analyzer is kick ass. This saves much of processing power of your brain ;-).

[@relaxationmusicsanctuary3664]

Both software and graphic designers at Fabfilter are geniuses

[@TommyTrentonJr]

such a soothing voice for tutorial videos! Feels like something from nationalgeographic or something! Makes me want to watch alllll the videos!

[@DaniTorresOfficial]

This is simply an AMAZING eq, I use it every day.

[@djphobia1200]

Dan is my favorite person for giving tutorials

[@LorneVignettes]

After seeing you use Fabfilter Pro-Q-3 for the last few years and always talk about how great it is. I finally broke down and got it yesterday for my Cubase DAW. I have Reaper as well and have been learning it. Reaper is pretty cool however I think Cubase has way better and more presets for everyone of their stock plugins. I think Reaper has way more ease of use when it comes to cross fades. Basically Cubase doesn't have the auto cross fade option.

[@c-a-a-r-l]

I appreciate the free upgrade to Pro Q 3 after buying Pro Q 2 on the 26th of this month :)

[@realisticproductionsLLC]

I had a feeling that the next upgrade would add a dynamic EQ. It was honestly all that was missing. I'm so happy! This frees up a slot on my master channel now!

[@MrBitterman75]

I thought there wouldn’t be possible to add so many improvements and new features to the already great and my go to eq plugin. Boy, I was wrong (dynamic eq implementaion was expected, but multichannel and per band channel options are incredible. Upgraded immediately without thinking twice. Fabfilter guys raise the bar once again! And have you noticed lately that almost all digital eq plugins look kinda fabfilter-ish?:-)

[@knchaitanya]

Oh man! Just listening to this video is so fulfilling... Rest all is bonus...

[@JohnSund-Music]

This FabFilter EQ is the best EQ I have ever come across - it is AMAZING! It is so precise, so intuitive and litterally everything, yes all parameters can be automised. If you’re looking an high end super EQ, you should definitely check this product. It is easy as they have a 30 days free trial. It is just encredible that such an advanced piece of software just is kind of “plug ‘n’ play” - so easy to use...wow - check it out!!!

[@djnosleeves85]

Wow this is a game changer I've never seen a living breathing EQ like this and fab never disappoints bravo to you all.

[@FdUpNews]

NICE! The best EQ on the market just got even better!

[@AironExTv]

Thanks. Great presentation. In all likelihood this will be a no-brainer update. It's on every track when I mix dialogue, sometimes twice.

[@svenjeschke5025]

Wow, I currently don‘t see any real competitor to Pro-Q 3. This is just insanely good. Next FF development should finally be their own DAW. With their ability to combine great functionality with the best GUI design on the market...

[@rockdudedrums4651]

This introduction is so good that I want to buy the introduction itself! 😳

[@DrAudioBot]

as usual his voice is too low.

[@riktascale4]

Dan Worrall...you the man, man...phew!! What a presentation. Very tempting.

[@DrayClay]

This is mouth watering. ProQ is the only EQ I use because of how forward thinking it is, and it just sounds amazing.

[@kimaningure254]

Fabfilter You deserve a Nobel Peace Price..THANK YOU

[@vybore9494]

Every time they update a plugin, it changes the game. No one else (at this point in time) has an Equalizer like this one. I am a happy owner of Pro Q, Pro Q2 and many other fabfilter products, and I think I’ll be getting this now :P

[@shahriaar0]

You guys probably know how great a job you have been doing, but allow me to say this again - magnificent work!

[@philgolden8619]

This is an epic update for an already powerful and great EQ move over Ozone. So many features very impressive!

[@danserogermusic104]

Who else sees the USS Enterprise NCC-1701 drawn on the display at 7:48?!!! Amazing plugin by the way!

[@nikosarkomanis]

i am so impressed, congratulations. making a a better version of pro q2 is really unbelievable

[@DanielCharlesSamuel]

What else we need other than this one eq plugin. Great job

[@audioelitist3677]

For sure in the top 5 filters I'd ever use. Implementing dynamics was a pro move.

[@billithoumilli2952]

I can’t wait until Pro DAW comes out!! Imagine being similar to Cubase where each track has a built in eq and channel strips with a toggled compressor, distortion, limiter etc... but all those channel strips are fabfilter plugins as stock. That would be crazy. Your guys’ attention to detail is the best and Pro DAW would be a dream daw.

[@eyesintheskies]

Looking forward to this more than their new synth!

[@Tx66]

Freaking amazing...now PLEASE make the sidechain functionality also available for the dynamic section, and we're set for life!!!

[@ShalevJoshua]

I'm amazed by your UX design... So complex yet so simple.

[@andresvela9249]

the way you eq'd that guitar was wonderful. This got me more interested in this plug-in.

[@scottiescott9297]

Fab filter is definitely at the top of the production software game. These tutorials are outstanding. Dan could sell Popsicles on the South Pole. "Per band" and "...at-all" are now my 2 favorite phrases. The emphasis added to the "K" sound at the end of certain words is cool, eg. kicK,. Definitely get Fabfilter: My go-to plugins!!

[@Shimmernut]

O man I'm so happy I found this thing! What a wonderful piece of software!

[@SacredCourt]

Best EQ hands down

[@josuezt]

WOW this is so crazy and amazing, why Fab Filter doesn't create a DAW?

[@its_clementttt]

if they created a daw though, it would be pretty expensive cuz the stock plugins will be their commercial plugins

[@lefevre3369]

And thank you for the intro to the Hyde Park Brass Band ✨👌🏼✨ lush!!

I also have this ProQ3 Equalizer from Fabfilter. Clean, aestethic, inuitiv and great functionality.

[@kontainer01]

[@denisl5817]

The Dopest EQ EVER! THANK FAB's team!

[@shawnbeaumonte7104]

This EQ is so freakin' amazing. I will absolutely upgrade to this immediately! Can't wait to play with this one. I was hoping too that you would throw in the harmonics tracking then I was really going to do a back flip...……...but I love what you did implement. Fantastic work guys.

[@nebstaism]

Looks amazing awesome update can’t wait to use it !!!!

[@vadimmartynyuk]

Fab Filter is killing it!

[@dopebeatz8421]

[@DoctorJRx]

I started using this today!! All I gotta say is AWESOME !!

[@go-en_music]

I think this is the most intense tutorial I've watched.

[@heyro2680]

I feel like fabfilter listened to my thoughts!! Been waiting for these for so long

[@AironExTv]

An easy purchase. I've been playing around with it and am positive this will be a staple yet again in my mixes.Thank you, it's a fine update. The dynamic behaviour can be automated as well, which suits me just fine. An interesting choice to provide no VST mono version this time. Not that the CPU consumption matters that much. I could probably run at least 1000 of these. The only downside to this new plugin is that I now have to create a new controller assignment map in Reaper again :). Good thing I'm on a break. I loaded one of my old Q2 presets from what may have been the mono version. And the bands only handled the right channel. That was easy to fix with a sweeping selection and setting it all to stereo.

[@fabfilter]

The VST version will adapt itself to the channel layout, which could be mono, stereo or surround. The separate mono version isn't needed anymore!

[@AironExTv]

@@fabfilter True if the DAW has mono channels(unlike Reaper), but that's ok. One interesting point is, while I got to do some creative modulation effects via parameter modulation, doing so at the behest of a sidechain required that I created a 10 channel track in Reaper. Fabfilter (VST3) would cheerfully grab the first eight. Not a big problem, and one I can fix with altering the plugin pin matrix as well. I do hope you'll have a few more channel configs in the channel selection for each band, such as LCR and LRLsRs. Small thing that can make a bit of difference in ambience and effect mixes.

[@BlackenedNL]

Not many things get me excited like this :)

[@mathieuvandewildebergh3058]

This goes beyond my expectations! Great work!

[@itsdakun]

Ahhh another new Dan Worrall video...I watch these just for fun here and there, to remind me of how immensely powerful the fabfilter software is. So amazing to have this stuff at my fingertips. Pro Q 2 on every channel in my projects! Was great to see the Fab guys at the last AES too. Can't wait to upgrade! And I agree with the others, a fabfilter DAW is the next step. Collab with Imageline and make the best DAW in existence :D

[@skywojto]

Thank You Fabfilter!!!

Brillant product, I love it. My favourite plugin gets even better ...
