Q-Clone is a unique EQ plug-in that you would use to mimic any hardware EQs you may have. You can set the Q-Clone software to 'learn' the settings and sounds of your hardware EQ, then apply those settings and sounds to any and all audio tracks in your audio recording software. The upshot of this is that you can have an unlimited number of instances of your favorite EQ in real-time, instead of having to painstakingly apply that EQ to each track individually.
By capturing the sound of your own gear, Q-Clone allows you to use that sound freely throughout your session, adjusting the sound of each track just as you would if you had dozens of that same hardware equalizer. Q-Clone has two components: Q-Capture, which is used to capture the sound of your hardware, and Q-Clone, which shows you the equalization curve of your hardware and provides other functions. Q-Capture constantly samples the hardware unit’s sound, tracking every twist you make on your gear’s knobs in real time. The calibration feature lets you tune Q-Capture precisely to your unit’s headroom and dB range.
Even the most well-equipped studios have a limited supply of outboard EQs, which limits the channels you can put them on. That limitation disappears with Q-Clone - it’s like opening a closet and finding stacks and stacks of hardware. Feel free to download and try out the demo of this unique plug-in, I'm sure you'll find it useful.
