This is different

Parametric Equalization

Four bands of fully parametric EQ, modeled from vintage German Klangfilter tube equalizers. The sound is both sweet and precise.

Proprietary Signal Processing

Three different response models—tape, tube and solid state—for an overall contouring of the signal and fine control over the transients.

VCA Compressor

Compression based on the dbx 202 VCA. Pucnhy for guitars or drums, musical enough to work with vocals. And you can tweak the saturation!

Frequency Dependent Gain Reduction

Dynamic equalization to clean up the bottom end, thin out mud, remove nasal honk or upper midrange brittleness.

Insufferable Midrange Filter

Overdubs tend to build up harshness in the 2 - 8kHz range. Get rid of it fast and easily, without reducing the air and shimmer. Great for guitars, cymbals, vox.

Stereo Widening

Add subtle widening to clear out the center of your mix without phase issues. Higher settings sound freaky—perfect as an effect or with pads and ambience.

Real Time Analyzer

The RTA shows you frequency response, EQ curves, gain reduction—everything you need to make smart processing decisions.

This thing is amazing! A magic tool for guitars for sure!

This plug in is unbelievable – I could go on about it all day. I just replaced a stack of about 12 plug ins, all doing various minor stages of notching/ eq-ing/ multi-band/ compressing etc etc with 2 instances of the AIP. Unreal.

The IMF is possibly the greatest tool I’ve ever come across. I don’t understand how ever I survived without it. The clarity it creates on a source with minimal effort. *chef kiss *

This plugin is like the Frank’s Red Hot Sauce of plugins “I put that sh*t on everything!” One of the best plugin purchases I’ve ever made.

This plug-in was my early Christmas gift to myself. MAN did I ever score!

The saturation, warmth, and extensive features of this plug-in are an amazing value. It is going to find its way onto everything. EVERYTHING!

I went deep on the analog modeling with SITRAL, and you can feel it. Crank the input, lean into the EQ, slam the output. It doesn’t fall apart or get ugly. Just like the real thing.”

Korneff Audio’s SITRAL W295 EQs are truly awesome. I’ve been incorporating them into my workflow and I love what they do to guitars and vocals in particular. They have tons of great midrange character without sounding harsh. I also love the impeccably detailed modeling of every step of the circuit and the option to tweak every variable down to the transformers. The W295 EQ is the type of plugin that’s hard to make sound bad. Korneff Audio knocked it out of the park!

This plug-in made me want to overuse it as soon as I started playing with it, in a good way. It sounds so good and reminds me of the strange sounding hifi electronics we used to hotrod to use in the studio. Loads of fun, and really is its own thing.

I love this thing. I’m already using your SITRAL all over the place and replacing various other EQ’s. Super straightforward to use and, like all of your plugins, the interface is a pleasure to tweak.

Been reaching for the new Korneff SITRAL EQ a lot — it’s officially my go-to for electric guitars. It already sounded great, but they really took it to another level with the tilt and transformers/ saturation features. Effortless tone, every time.

Finally!! Been using the beta in secret all this year. Just an awesome sound unlike anything else I have. Love the midrange and the top is so pleasing.
I don’t think it possible to be disappointed with this SITRAL eq.
