bx_panEQ by Brainworx introduces a groundbreaking approach to equalizing stereo tracks by allowing precise control over frequency adjustments within the stereo panorama. Unlike traditional equalizers, bx_panEQ features three fully parametric bell-curve filters that can be independently panned anywhere across the stereo field. This unique capability enables targeted EQ tweaks on specific elements embedded in a stereo mix without affecting sounds positioned elsewhere, offering an exceptional level of precision and creative control.

The plugin is designed to enhance mixing and mastering workflows by enabling users to shape the stereo image with unprecedented detail. Whether it’s widening an acoustic guitar track by boosting frequencies progressively from left to right or taming problematic frequencies in a live mix without disturbing other instruments, bx_panEQ provides a powerful solution. Each filter’s parameters, including frequency, gain, bandwidth, and pan position, can be adjusted individually, allowing for intricate spectral sculpting that adapts to the spatial characteristics of the audio material.

Additional features such as the Focus control refine the width of EQ effects within the panorama, while the Proportional Q design ensures that gain changes maintain clarity by preventing filter overlap. The integrated Panoramic Spectral Analyzer visualizes EQ changes in real time, making it easier to understand how frequency and stereo position interact. This innovative tool expands creative possibilities, from enhancing mono signals by spreading frequencies across the stereo field to creating dynamic panning effects through automation, ultimately opening new dimensions for sound design and mix refinement.
