About the VEQ-5
Vintage Mid-Range Equalizer
The VEQ-5 is inspired by one of the most famous
and renowned equalizers in studio history - fo-
cussing on the power range frequencies from
200Hz to 7kHz it is aimed at cleaning up and
sweetening vocals. But it also does a great job
on guitars and keys.
Plugin Activation & System Requirements
Black Rooster Audio plug-ins are equipped with
a straightforward and easy to use challenge-re-
sponse activation system. We did our best to

tion, mobile use is supported and just as easy as
permanent activation of your computer‘s hard
disk.

Key features
Authentic circuit emulation
Our real time SPICE type component based cir-
cuit simulation approach allows to authenti-
cally capture the sound and feel of the analog
counterpart in all nuances. Every crucial part of
the circuit, including the passive lter network,
audio transformers and amplier tube stages
have been faithfully modeled.
SSE2 optimized code
DSP operations are pipe-lined using the SSE2
instruction set. This ensures highest possible
performance operation despite very complex
computations.
Auto-adjusted oversampling for maximum audio
transparency
Aliasing artifacts are eiciently attenuated us-
ing a low latency linear phase Dolph-Chebyshev
poly-phase design. The oversampling is auto
adjusted to your session‘s sample rate to save
valuable CPU power while oering the most
transparent sound possible.
HighDPI / Retina support
All our plug-Ins support high pixel density on
Mac OSX and Windows to bring you the most
enjoyable user experience on high DPI displays.
Please refer to your manual to nd whether your
DAW is HighDPI capable if you‘re working on
Windows.
