What is a tilt EQ design?

My experience is from an RF perspective... (IF slope tuning). Even though I haven't heard the "tilt" term, it is probably in reference to a shifting slope or shift in the "skirt" on the selected frequency range. Most parametric EQs have a Q adjustment which narrows or broadens the selected range equally on each side of the center frequency. A "tilt" would allow the user to have one side steeper than the other.

.. not your average EQ, that's for sure...

 

Blue Cat Audio has a similar toy :)

 

I actually had great success using the Blue Cat deal to clean up some old cassette recordings that had too much middle and not enough highs or lows. By tweaking the shelves and then mousing around the center Q I could get a reasonable facsimile of music :lol:

 

Probably could have gotten the same result with a regular 5 band parametric, but the real time dynamic control across such a broad spectrum made it easier to find a sweetening effect.

I'm not too clear on the concept either, and I need to play around with this plugin, but GY's explanation was helpful.

 

That is exactly what brought that question to my head. Those Tal plug ins are great for the price...FREE. And it says that this plug is modeled after analog til EQ's. So I wondered what are those....

 

Thanks guys, I have it very clear now.
