The Width setting creates filters in the Sides channel. The high and low Pass filters offer slopes from 6dB/Oct to 120dB/Oct, Produce offers three bell filters, the high and low bands can be switched to shelf, the high and low bands each having different shelf shapes. Claro takes the best of the rich visual feedback available in plugins and combines it with lots of cues to encourage the user to stay in the creative mindset rather than getting too influenced by the numbers.įor something that at first looks like a 3 band EQ, the facilities on offer are comprehensive. The excellent Oxford Dynamic EQ is much more modern in its presentation but is fundamentally a dynamic EQ. Sonnox certainly know a thing or two about quality equalisers but their best known EQ product, the venerable and highly respected Oxford EQ, is a traditional console EQ which presents the tools but does little to help a novice. In the video I show Claro in action, firstly on a solo piano recording and then demonstrating the Mix page on a multitrack session. The way this works is by specifying a reference track and then a detailed comparison can be made of that track against the reference track by selecting it. The energy display from the centre of the Produce tab, which shows the energy of the signal across the audio spectrum in a horizontal bar, is represented for every instance of Claro and potentially problematic build-ups of energy at specific frequencies are identified as yellow bars. Then there is a third tab - ‘Mix’, which presents every instance of Claro in a session to be viewed together in the same window.

However at any point the user can take those intuitive settings from what Sonnox have called the ‘Produce’ tab and open them in ‘Tweak’, where a more conventional, fully-featured modern EQ plugin allows any necessary adjustments to the first pass to be made. A simple interface with 3 bands of EQ with descriptive language and visual representation of the audio given priority over numbers like frequency and Q values.

The clever thing about Claro is how it presents itself.
