Resizable interface. Simple "Bottom Right Corner Handle" to resize. 50% to 200%.
*Resizing Tip: When you duplicate plug-in, it will remember current state of GUI size. But if you load new instance, it will be opened at default size. To get rid of this issue, simply follow these steps;
1. Open plug-in for the first time
2. Resize GUI according to your screen resolution or you liking before setting any knobs
3. Save this state as default preset with your DAW
Now, you will be able to load new instances with same size.
(If you want to go default size, simply double click to resize handle.)

Thank YOU Audio OBSESSION GUYS plug ins sound great
In my Logic Pro the "linked" function does not work ... am I missing something?
Is Maxbax (and Masbax) based on RJR BAX? The layout and freq choices certainly suggest so.
Is it truly passive, meaning if you boost one frequency it‘s attenuating all other frequencies and then bringing them all up, like a real passive Eq is working. Or is it affecting the phase?
Hi! Mid band was causing to this issue but fixed with latest update. Did you try latest update with clean install? Thanks
Hey, I will try it today. Thank you so much! 😍
opening a saved Reaper session with MAXBAX kills audio signal (no signal output) Bypassing MAXBAX brings audio back. Using Reaper on MacOS Mojave (latest reaper)
I have similar issues too in Logic. It works sometimes, but sometimes it kills the audio and random plugins will have to be disabled. But MAXBAX seem to be the main culprit instigating the issue.
Superb... I was going to buy a Massive Passive for the top sheen, but this saved me THOUSANDS! Excellent job!
This is incredible! Thank you!
Dear Tunca, thank you for the great work. I love this one along with FIVER and BUSTERse
Good to know it's fixed! About linking, I have no idea, honestly... No one reported same issue. And, I tried with different DAWs and no issue. Also, my main DAW is Logic (latest version) and there is no sync issue. Thanks
Hey, Tunca - the 1.1 fixed the audio drop out for MaxBax. :) Thanks! Unfortunately, the linking still doesn't work...and it's only my AO M/S L/R plugins that do this. I have a variety of other M/S L/R plugins that function just fine in my setup.
oh and Sync works perfectly for me on my Reaper setup.
Just tried adding a lot of 20k, a little 200hz and a tiny amount of 60 on my master bus.. WOW!!!.. Just wow!.. THANK YOU! The mix just opened up like a flower!
Enjoy!
Above edited to say that MasBax and N492ME are not synching left and right channels in stereo - it was in mono on a vocal track that MasBax was synching and N492ME was acting the way it was described. In stereo mode, neither synch - in my setup.
Oh, I stand partially corrected - and I hate giving you false information, darn it. MasBax (I can't use MaxBax) is synching with left and right channels; N492ME is synching - but not visually. I move left channel, right channel doesn't move, but when you hover over right channel's dial, it's frequency/output matches left. BXQ is not synching both channels simultaneously - I have to move each one individually - but that's not a big deal since they're notched.
Thanks for the quick reply - and what I meant by "link" is the link in the plugin so that when you adjust the left channel, the right synchs with it; that's not working with MaxBax, MasBax, or N492ME for my system.
Oh sorry. My bad… That’s strange. Did you try latest versions? MAXBAX and BXQ will work synced. Thanks
On Catalina, Logic 10.6.3, when inserted, no audio comes out of Logic - just a click noise. Tried twice. Also, but like MasBax and a couple of others, the link does not work.
Hi. Thanks for reporting. Let me check it. Also, to download old plug-ins, please try right click and save as. Thanks
Why no oversampling on MAXBAX and what is the best use for it?
Master channel is best place for this one. Also, no needed oversampling. Thanks
