Q-Clone is a revolutionary new product utilizing unique
(patent-pending) technology that lets you use your outboard
hardware equalizer in a completely new way. By capturing the
sound of your own gear, Q-Clone allows you to use that sound
freely throughout your session, adjusting the sound of each
track just as you would if you had dozens of that same hardware
equalizer.

Let.s be clear: we.re not talking about mousing around on a
plug-in .simulation. with .virtual. knobs. You.re using YOUR
gear, not a software version of it. Turn the knobs on your
classic box.Q-Clone captures and holds the exact sound in real
time.

Q-Clone has two components: Q-Capture, which is used to capture
the sound of your hardware, and Q-Clone, which shows you the
equalization curve of your hardware and provides other
functions. Q-Capture constantly samples the hardware unit.s
sound, tracking every twist you make on your gear.s knobs in
real time. The calibration feature lets you tune Q-Capture
precisely to your unit.s headroom and dB range.

Even the most well-equipped studios have a limited supply of
outboard EQs, which limits the channels you can put them on.
That limitation disappears with Q-Clone. It.s like opening a
closet and finding stacks and stacks (e.g. up to 24 instances of
Q-Clone on a Mac G5 dual 2.5 with Pro Tools or 25 instances of
Q-Clone on PC P4 3.6 with Pro Tools) of your favorite box.enough
for every channel and more.

Put Q-Capture on an Aux track or dedicated audio track
(depending on the DAW). Put Q-Clone on any of the other tracks
that you want to process with your hardware EQ.


No more writing down the settings on your box to get the same
sound when you return to the mix. Q-Clone holds your sound right
there when your session opens.

Even more, save MULTIPLE settings as presets and instantly load,
A/B and adjust them.

Q-Clone shows you the EQ curve your hardware unit is creating.
The Add feature lets you equalize that equalization.like have
two of your hardware units chained together. And the Trim
adjustment ensures that gain is under control.


If your sound involves putting two EQs in a chain, Q-Clone can
clone that composition sound, too. Using the Add feature, you
can apply new equalization to a track that.s already been
equalized. Or create an 8-band EQ version out of your 4-band
favorite hardware. Save the whole as a preset, and get your
signature sound without even having the hardware present.

There.s no substitute for the sound and feel of working with a
classic analog equalizer. Keep the sound and feel of your
hardware, keep your hands on the knobs, and augument those
tenfold with Q-Clone.

The Q-Clone package consists of two components: Q-Capture and
Q-Clone. Using them is easy:

1. Set up Q-Capture so it sends its special capturing signal
through your audio interface to your outboard hardware EQ unit
and returns the equalized signal back.

2. Open Q-Clone on the first track you want to EQ. Adjust the
knobs on your hardware EQ unit until you get the sound you want.

3. On the Q-Clone plug-in, hit the Hold button, and the EQ for
that track will now remain just as you set it, while you repeat
the process on as many tracks as your computer can handle.


You can change and reset the equalization on each track as often
as you need, and save the results as a preset. Using the Add
button, you can also make adjustments on top of the original
setting.like having the signal running through two of your EQ
units at once. And Q-Clone comes with presets captured from a
selection of world-class hardware equalizers. Q-Clone is
available separately and is not included in any bundle.
