Introduction to SlickEQ and SlickEQ GE

[@helmanfrow]

I come back to this review every once in a while for that vintage Worrall.

[@prodbybigl]

You know you’re getting better at listening for eq when you start to reach for this plugin!

[@weatherwormful]

Dan Worall could make a video about a half eaten Freddo bar and id buy it...

[@RaduJon]

Lol yessss good point

[@dylandylan11731]

i LOVE this plugin - it's on 99% of my mixes.

[@michaelanderwald4179]

The format, flow, and structure of this review is perfect. And what a great sounding plugin. I've never heard such smooth, sweet saturation in any other plugin.

[@Erudotic]

Indeed "I know now what I did not onlooker before, I see now ". And I have been using Slick for quite soms tome now. Dan is a brilliant genius master teacher.

[@inguaria]

Great EQ - lives on all my busses. Bought it within a minute of its announcements. And of course great presentation as always. Some of the details are new to me.

[@igorkhomenko9680]

Primarily mixing on groups as it's a bit CPU heavy on too many tracks. Mastering as well in case I need some air or ''invisibly fix some minor things usually in Japanese mode, or even tilt the whole mix eq. Thx.

[@nekromachine]

One of the best equalization tools available period by three of the best developers around. Unbelievably good quality for money and the free variety too good to be true (almost). Raid all of Variety of Sounds', VladgSounds' and TDR plugins...You won't be disappointed to put it mildly

[@roadtonever]

There's something magical about the gain-dependent Q-values. Especially in the default American mode. It speeds up my work flow tremendously.

[@jeroenfigee]

The musical backdrop is really really cool! Love it.

[@DRocksRecords]

This EQ has a pleasing sound and workflow. I also grealy value the volume matching feature which really helps me focus on the differences Im applying when EQing

[@prodigalretrod]

"Gentleman's Edition" haha love it!

[@iamgalaxey]

Not many Vst reviews would make me want to sub but after this educational moment I had to immediately hit it without thinking about it. Plus you can hear all of the changes being made...I just realized this is 5 years old lol well this is a new one for me lol

[@alxiroi]

That voice man :)

[@DaMonstaMuzik]

Great products! I just recently downloaded the Free versions, going to use for production inside Maschine and Komplete Ultimate! Of course i will have to purchse the GE editions soon, im loving the way you guys go about this plugin

[@Geor_Wit]

Best manual I ever heard!!! Great job.

[@DLithic]

great video!! TDR tokyo dawn is one of the highest quality plugin producers, in my experience!! thanks so myuch guys and to all, have a good night/day!!

[@zilkov_ae]

incredible video, thank you

[@marin4311]

I have this free plugin since some time, I wasn't aware of its amazing complexity. I must dig further into it.

[@Learndigitalaudio]

Excellent EQ, Excellent video!

[@nichttuntun3364]

Fantastic eq plugin. Awesome company philosophy. Thank you TDR

[@Musicismylove888]

Thank you. Downloaded all 3. A highly informative and excellent video. :)

[@marcussyntar5185]

Such a beautifully informative video! And such a great sounding plugin. So greatful ❤😁

[@piscesman54]

A great plugin. I've been using it for mastering, as it's a bit CPU heavy. This really helped me to understand it better. As always, Dan nails it with his explanation and demonstration. I also love the NOVA dynamic EQ plugin, though it's even more CPU heavy. Otherwise, I'd use it on every track.

[@moontan91]

perhaps then the SlickEQ M would be better suited in that case.

[@piscesman54]

@@moontan91 I think it's meant more for mastering. It's supposed to be a very high-quality sophisticated EQ, but it is high CPU consumption.

[@laserbeak43]

Best video for an EQ

[@jobimboy]

thank you for your free plugins TDR. Awesome!

[@brokko_le3]

High fidelity gear like this is wasted on a musical barbarian like me, but I love listening to Dan explaining stuff. He's the audio Attenborough.

[@Matoro342]

Yeah, those Ethnic bell shapes sure are exotic XD

[@indiejohn]

Lovely presentation.Thumbs up.

[@yetcop]

I love this plugins. I think will buy the entire bundle!

[@Kathayne636]

Awesome video and plugin.

[@AmagrasMUSIC]

4:55 Hats Off Dan!

[@comtv-il]

Great achievement and real insight on the subject. Thanks a lot!

[@erskinepatton3247]

Today was the day that I learned that Tokyo Dawn Labs is not a Japanese company. What an enlightenment...

[@lydpik]

I'm so impressed. But would also like to see a mastering version with more bands. Thanks a lot TDR!! :-)

[@TokyoDawnRecords]

+lydpik It's in the works!

[@SomeoneCalledRob]

+TokyoDawnRecords When will the new version be released?

Amazing EQs

[@onlyoneneuron]

[@boimesa8190]

[@EmilianoCaballeroFraccaroli]

Awesome EQ,thanks!

[@angelbeatzonthetrack1701]

[@practice_Chinese_yoga]

Love it!

[@ChrisBrideauMedia]

Awesome video!!

[@amazeus1980]

Really nice job! Buying it :)

[@AudioReplica2023]

did I read "slick eq". or "Sick eq" 😂 to me is sick

[@andreacaccese]

fantastic EQ

[@FubeXL]

great tut !

[@frankharley442]

Whata the name of the eq graph software?

[@realraven2000]

very cool - how do you get that curve visualisation? Is this a separate plugin or only in your video?

[@DjangoFlaherty]

+Realraven2000 Explained at 1:48

[@Seany06]

Man, I'm using the free version and I'm interested in the GE but why only 3 bands? Pretty much every classic console EQ has 4.. Will there ever be a 'Master Edition' with 4? lol

[@Seany06]

....and with a wide band bell WITHOUT proportional Q? Matching it to Neve and MCI style EQ's and I couldn't get the width.. obviously it's not meant to emulate them but it would be nice to have a mode like German with the wide bands that stayed wide when cutting and boosting...

[@Byronic19134]

So British mode is Neve based and American API?

[@ErickT_MX]

Someone can explain me about the sat styles?? Ok, "British" its the SSL consoles sounds... and the rest???

[@JanSandahl]

On sale at PluginBoutique right now. I got Nova GE, ut I'm thinking of one more. Just one more... :)

[@ZacKuzmanov]

whats the 1st track in this vid?

[@TokyoDawnRecords]

+Jonny Fiasco "Children Of The Sun" from Positive Flow, more here: www.tokyodawn.net/positive_flow-flow_lines/

[@DLithic]

good video, slickEQ is a great plugin..thanks for letting us try it for free...i advise a purchase!! support the real muahaha ;) pceee

[@SilenceOfDeliverance]

this plugin is f*kin awesome!!!! really!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! a must have!!!!!!!!!!!

[@yetonGhul]

who'S dan worral and why is it important for us to know his name in the title ?

[@dddux]

Let me Google it for you: lmgtfy.com/?q=Dan+Worrall

[@mrconcept]

The best voice in the world :)

[@visa-schengenwf424]

i think is the American Style EQ is an Emulation of the API Equalizer but i have no idea about the other Styles of EQs Would you please Explain this to me (because i read the whole Manual and there's Nothing about it) Thanks in advance

[@iamboybeats]

None of the styles are based on any analog gear. The names and colors are simply for memorization purposes.

[@TokyoDawnRecords]

Indeed. These "nationalistic" winks represent different Q behaviours (proportional Q, fixed Q, asymmetric Q). Some of them relate to behaviours of iconic EQs, some are our own ideas. The emulation business generally doesn't excite us much.. :)

[@abrotherinchrist]

What is the difference, if any, between the type of oversampling other popular plugins use to this type of oversampling? "The 64bit multi-rate processing scheme (a.k.a. “internal re-sampling”) practically eliminates typical problems of digital EQ implementations such as frequency-warping, quantization distortion and aliasing."

[@AutPen38]

I think when TDR first introduced this, it was one of the few plugins to include internal over-sampling, using 64-bit CPU calculations (which caused it to be considered a CPU-hog at the time), but that sort of thing is more common now. That said, there are still a lot of rival plugins that just use a very steep filter above 20kHz to cut out the high-frequency "bounce backs" that would cause aliasing when saturation is added and those don't completely remove the issues like TDR's plugs seem to do.

[@electreelife]

Hey Guys if im to create a mastering chain using TDR AND also adding stereo widener plugin Such as dr MS. what would be an ideal chain order?

[@dudearlo]

thumbs up if you were rocking your head to the beat :D

[@emanuel_soundtrack]

the brazilian one is a beautiful ass curve, buy the upgrade!

[@SolidRockBluesBand]

Doesn't seem to work on Mixcraft 5.2 to my regret. And no Linux version either. :(

[@dantei.1194]

Dan woz ere

[@chrisgatecliffe]

Is this compatible with audirvana?. When i use slickeq as a plug in I can hardly touch any of the dials without it distorting and the outgain instantly flashing red. Outgain is set to auto, nothing is particularly loud but it seems to distort really easily. Is there anything I'm missing that could be causing it as I really want to get the gentleman's edition if I know I can get it working. Cheers

[@byldoy]

gotta love German mode

[@PipeJream]

Why would you need this much detail in an eq plugin?

[@majinbuu5234]

I was going to say the same thing lol

[@DLithic]

how would ppl order usage of these plugins when applied to rap vocals (check my channel lol)------here they are: noise reduction, de-ess, eq, compression, delay , reverb, saturation and others...thanks haha from on2 productions , Pluralithic on the mic, making wise deductions, in trouble with spikes around her neck she is not subtle, i freestyle on tokyo dawn records suffering from stimulant ingestion, LEGAL ones of course, im a six foot two munchkin, gimme a break, i have a little munchkin, living with her mom, to whom i used to be something, fuck her though cus to my daughter im everything, as she is to me, and yes ive passed up wedding rings, if a red thing sings, imma kill the devil and his fucking monkey wings...all you gotta do is stick to rapping about fins to swim in and start giving to people not giving in to steeples fuck religions selling truth to poor people, rich people, whatever....at least i've got faith and hope in something, MING, whateverrrr...
