Algo

Frost EQ > For brevity of explanation, we describe it as algorithmic. Actually only the equalizer is "algorithmic," and it mimics the curves of a particular hardware dynamic equalizer. The technique is similar to that seen in products of other competitors: you match the shapes of the equalization curves with a digital equalizer (if the reference equalizer is minimum phase, the resulting process will be quite accurate) - from Giancarlo.
