Description
Luftikus is an analog-modeled EQ with fixed half-octave bands and additional high-frequency boost points. It provides bands at 10, 40, 160, and 640Hz, a 2.5kHz high shelf, and further boosts at 2.5, 5, 10, 20, and 40kHz.
The plugin extends the hardware-inspired design with deeper cuts, output trim, and a Keep Gain mode that helps avoid overall loudness changes. Analog mode models a more analog behavior, while Mastering mode makes the controls stepped; the listing provides VST and AU builds for Win32, Win64, and macOS.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of EQ is Luftikus?
It is a digital adaptation of an analog EQ with fixed half-octave bands and additional high-frequency boost controls.
Which frequencies are available?
The main bands are 10, 40, 160, and 640Hz with a 2.5kHz high shelf; extra high-frequency boosts are available at 2.5, 5, 10, 20, and 40kHz.
What does Keep Gain do?
Keep Gain reduces gain in non-boosted areas to help preserve overall loudness while you shape the EQ.
What is the difference between Analog and Mastering mode?
Analog mode models a more analog behavior. Mastering mode makes the controls stepped, while the listing says Analog mode performs better for that behavior.
