Generally, mastering equalizers focus solely on the equalization process, but PSP MasterQ2 is not simply a mastering equalizer; the "Q" stands for "Quality". We designed PSP MasterQ2 to be a creative tool for mixing and mastering or wherever its features and quality are needed.

PSP MasterQ2 can operate at sample rates ranging from 44.1 kHz to 768 kHz. It offers seven different filters: 12, 24, and 36 dB/oct low-cut and high-cut filters; low-shelf and high-shelf filters that can be switched to peak filters; and low-mid, mid, and high-mid peak filters, all with adjustable frequency and Q over a wide range.

The EQ graph shows an overview of the EQ curve, as well as the individual characteristics of each filter. In addition to its powerful filters, PSP MasterQ2 also offers you a selection of limiting and "soft clipping" algorithms to help you shape your signal and prevent it from reaching its digital peak.

PSP MasterQ2 employs astonishingly precise 80-bit extended floating-point calculations in all filters to deal with any cumulative errors. It also allows for optimal filter operation even at the lowest frequencies with high-gain and high-Q settings.

PSP MasterQ2 also makes use of our patented frequency authentication technique. "FAT" is a double sampling technique that allows the proper operation of the filter at the highest frequencies. This mode uses high-order linear filters to avoid phase errors and linear audio bandwidth errors caused by second-order sampling. This technique results in double sampling without sample rate conversion artifacts.
