VTM5

POLYPHONIC EQ

MANUAL

1.2 VERSION

EVOPAX VTM5 __________________________________________

OVERVIEW

Besides being an equalization with parametric LP, HP, Peak, Low Shelving and High Shelving filters —the first three with
resonance— it has been included an internal mixer for mixing independently each one of the five voices, and the possibility of
making changes in the time line. This system permits to add fast and commodiously polyphony getting a new degree of
possibilities. It is suggested to utilize the plug-in not only like an equalization, or maybe for creating delay based effects, but
also for incrementing the degree of presence of any sound. It's optimized for low consumption and uses one of the world
fastest mathematical and FFT routines. It should work simultaneously tens of plug-in instances, so don't hesitate to use VTM5
in a unique snare!

VTM5 operates in two modes: DRT and CHN, shortening of 'DIRECT' and 'CHAIN' respectively. The first means that the channel
is independent of the rest. In Chain Mode the filter takes its input from the filter preceding it from the left.
Since 1.2 version it have been added an spectrum analyzer worked for being comfortable, avoiding excessive blinking or an
too fast actualization. In the configuration menu the user can configure options like line colors or more technical parameters
such as variables that affect the manner of representing frequency. Visual saturation warning, RMS and peak metering help
to control that the permitted volume levels don't surpass the allowed limits.

Multiple efforts was destined in selection, creation and algorithm testing for guarantee sound quality. The internal 64 bit
process truly entail more precision/curvature in the task of calculating coefficients to digital filters, although in other typology
of effects seems more a resource waste.

The option High Precision Mode changes the computation mode to “per sample” instead of pre-configured one that elaborate
them in groups, and it is recommended to work without HPM. But this option assures that in all the process chain doesn't
exist neither interpolation methods or other mathematical approximations. With high end equipment should be possible to
perceive differences and it's also secure that the filters seem more stable operating at low frequencies or with maximum
levels of resonance.

INSTALLATION

1) Uncompress the archive with any .zip tool.

2) Click in the icon “setup.exe” using an account without limited rights.

3) Introduce name, surname and activation code.

4) Select the installation folder recognized for the VST host as usual.

Anti-virus and system protection note: the installer places an archive denominated VTM5CoreA.dll in the system folder.
