FilterBank HD Black Friday pricing is $69, 53% off, until Nov 23, 2026, on McDSP's EQ and filter collection built for AAX DSP users.
This is the HD version of the FilterBank plugin set. A Native version exists as a separate product.
FilterBank is a set of three EQ and filter plugins for your recording system. McDSP positions FilterBank HD v7 as capable of reproducing the character of virtually any equalizer, whether built with valves or transistors, old or new, warm or lean. Users can modify how the filters are designed along with the core EQ controls, or put together a personalized EQ from scratch.
The three plugins:
The shelving section is high and low, with independent control of frequency, gain, peak, slope and dip.
The parametric section covers 20Hz to 21kHz. The bell can be up to 5 octaves wide, gain is +/-12dB, and it uses Constant-Q technology.
Lowpass and highpass filters have adjustable slope and a resonant peak greater than 24 dB. Bandpass and band reject filters are included, with a Q range of 0.2 to 12.0.
Each EQ and filter band carries analog saturation modeling, which McDSP says is there to prevent digital clipping. You can run up to 48 EQ and filter bands per MIX dsp.
Processing is double precision, and the algorithms are zero latency. The interfaces have been updated to high definition, and the code is optimized for Apple Silicon and the latest Intel processors.
Each license or subscription gives you two activations.
HD v7 supports AAX DSP, AAX Native, AU and VST3. As of v7.0, VST is no longer supported, and VST versions of v6 McDSP plugins will not be updated and will be uninstalled.
McDSP lists Pro Tools, Logic Pro, Cubase, Nuendo, Ableton Live, LUNA, Reaper, Sonar and Studio One as compatible, along with other DAWs that host AAX, AU or VST3. The HD plugins also support VENUE S6L systems, through a VENUE-specific installer from the McDSP website.
On Mac you need macOS 10.13 or higher, 64-bit only, and the plugins run natively on Intel and M1 Apple Silicon. On Windows, 7, 8 and 10 are supported, 64-bit only.
Activation needs an iLok2 or iLok3 USB Smart Key, or a free iLok License Manager account with an iLok Cloud session.
