Doesn't the Wave's page explain it pretty well? Isn't this the one that adds upper harmonics to make the bass more present on systems w/ less low end. Lots of ways to do this yourself and you probably get more control. It's a quick tool for people working with audio on a daily basis from my understanding.

Voxengo's Overtone EQ is free and can do stuff along these lines. Not sure if the results are comparable, but... worth a try.

Makes ya bayss way more maxx'd! :corndance:










Really though it adds upper harmonics and filters them to increase presence and does a bit of other psycho-acoustic fuckery if I recall correctly.

I have it, doesn't do much to be honest. I can't really hear any difference when I put it on a track. I'd rather use a mutliband distortion plugin like fabfilter saturn or layer another sound.

Yeah it's only useful on recorded sound. If you're in a DAW, you can just synthesize it to be exactly how you want.

Just lightly saturate.

I don't think it's really worth it for the few applications a dubstep producer would use it for.
