De-Vice's 7 stage high end ISON EQ is available now and until April 30 for only 129 EURO! (normally 159 EURO). Your ISON purchase includes Trakker, mono and stereo versions and the ISON filter and increases the performance of your Scope system enormously with quality EQ that competes with the worlds best.
Other plug-ins in the De-Vice' range have had their prices cut by as much as 30%...for example ISON Trakker is now just 69 EURO (was 99 EURO) and Speakulator is 69 EURO (was 80 EURO). If you don't quite have the money for the ISON you can still have the sound as Trakker shares many of the ISON's features.
Check them out here...

hard decision, to choose between the Trakker and ISON...
If I'm right, the ISON's sweep controll together with the offset fader controll is the main difference, offering a strong filtering modulation effect as opposed to 'normal', more static filtering and sound correcting.
You don't offer an upgrade path from Tracker to ISON? (he said, thinking wishfully).
cheers

Hi there!
Well the basic sound and operation is the same regarding the Q/Gain dependency EQ and being able to switch it off even. It also has the decramping and most of the various EQ modes etc but just no visual EQ curve to save screen space, RAM and less maximum gain per stage. A quick allrounder for mixing and tracking.
Yes you can upgrade to the full ISON by paying the difference in price...and there's also a little discount there too ;-o
Prices here...

I Would love that too! Unfortunately it's impossible as far as I can see.Knobs connected to EQ curves controlling multiple values in both directions in Scope causes nothing but pain, problems and recursive loops and Scope crashes from what I have found. I hope I can find a way around this and I'm working on it believe me!
When any gain is increased/decreased with a Q/gain dependent EQ, the Q value (bandwidth)changes in accordance to many, many factors and this makes the independent control of proportional/nonproportional Q and gain via knob and graphics a technical nightmare!
To give you an idea, 50 count them 50! different curves are being used with ISON to cover all the EQ shapes and settings. Each of them mapped and controlled by up to 35 different variable controllers/rescalers etc. The user just sees 7. Now you can maybe see why it took 2 years of work for the ISON and why noone else has been stupid enough
to do a Q/gain dependent EQ for Scope thus far!
I hope these restrictions/limitations change at an atom level in the future but i'm not too confident. This is also the reason (I think) why graphic editing is also not even possible with the Sony Oxford EQ which also features Q/gain dependency.
However...! It is possible for me to impliment graphic editing in the filter only versions...This will be available in future versions.
Thanks for the interest and please ask me more if you don't understand my explanation.
