This filter specialized in changing the overall

sonic character of a track in fine nuances. It fea-

tures two controllers per channel and is capable

of flexibly producing convincing results in no

time at all.

Whenever a classic shelving filter would be too

limited and a fully parametric filter would too

much, the Niveau Filter is the efficient and el-

egant solution.

Its main task is changing the proportions be-

tween high and low frequencies. It works like

a pair of scales: Dependent on the gain setting

around a selectable center frequency, the high

frequencies are boosted up to +3 dB while the

low frequencies are simultaneously attenuated

by -5 dB maximum.

Turning the gain controller into the other di-

rection will cut the treble and boost the bass

instead.

Note:

Settings in the border areas of the cov-

ered frequency range produce ‘almost’ shelving

filters, by the way.
