Hi all

Have you ever looked at a spectrogram and wanted to know what the music would sound like if you manipulated the graphs? If so - check out this (8 bit limited demo) link. Download is about 1 MB.

http://www.har-bal.com/

Har-Bal is an advanced equalization system and not just a spectrum analyzer. Beyond that, even if your EQ software/hardware is superior you will be hard pressed to be able to come up with an equalization for a given track in the time and with the ease with which you can using the EQ in Har-Bal. This is because the filter is designed by modifying the spectrum directly and because the designed filter is realized to preserve perceived loudness. The latter is simply not possible to do accurately with conventional EQ equipment and techniques.

Cool, if I understood it correctly you can drag the spectrogram directly? That's amazing...

Or do you have a eq-line and you see what happens to the soundspectra immediatly? In this case it's nothing new...

Yes - you can alter the shape of the spectrogram (and by doing so altering the sound) directly... Its pretty cool. Smile

this doesnt seem so amazing to me, it seems like an eq, maybe good, but not some breakthrough, the only thing i think is of note is the average spectrum graphs for certain genres, thats cool maybe. I think the legitamicy of this program as proffesional becomes seriously doubted in this "reason to buy"

No longer need expensive speakers because you are able to SEE the frequency ranges your monitors aren't able to reproduce. Don't take our word for it. Take a look at the specs of your own monitors and look up the term "frequency response". Your monitors should be able to cover the full frequency range 20Hz - 20,000Hz, "does yours"? If not, then this tool is for you! Click here to access a web page that actually allows you to test your monitor's frequency range. You may be in for a shock!
