Multiband paragraphic EQ with 10 bands of precision equalization for mixing and mastering – a go-to tool for both surgical repair and gentle coloring.

Waves 25th Anniversary edition: You can now choose between the classic Legacy and the new Modern user interfaces. Both offer new plugin features, including:

Proportional Q filters: Keeps Q value proportional to gain.
Selectable band control: Allows you to focus in more detail on the selected band’s controls.
Double Precision control: Lets you choose between 32-bit and double-precision 64-bit processing.

With its ten bands, Q10 offers unparalleled equalization options. Each band offers six different filter types and complete control of gain, frequency and Q. And unlike most multiband equalizers, each Q10 band can use any filter type, so there is immense flexibility when shaping a signal.

Q10 offers extremely large Q values and large boosts and cuts, so you can fix and focus sounds that a conventional EQ could not touch. Q10 is configurable either as two independent mono equalizers or as a precisely ganged stereo equalizer.

10-band equalizer for mixing and mastering
Ideal for both surgical repair and gentle coloring
Six filter types per band
Advanced noise shaping for optimum fidelity
25th Anniversary edition includes Legacy and Modern interfaces
NEW 25th Anniversary features: Proportional Q filters, selectable band control, double precision processing

6 EQ Tips: Boost or Cut the Frequencies?

We’ve all heard “Cut, don’t boost!” But is that true? How do you know if you should boost or cut when sculpting EQ? Learn when to do each, and how to set the most effective subtractive vs. additive EQ parameters for your mix.

Jack Joseph Puig Producer, Mixer, Engineer

U2, The Black Eyed Peas, Beck, Lady Gaga

“The Q10 changed how I create my mixes.”

Gil Norton Producer

Foo Fighters, Pixies, Stornoway

“The Q10 sounds great on anything.”

Val Garay Producer & Engineer

Linda Ronstadt, Kim Carnes, James Taylor

“Anytime I need parametric EQ, I turn to the one and only Q10.”

Alex Tumay Engineer, Producer

Young Thug, 21 Savage, Drake, Kanye West

“The Q10 is crucial to getting the vocal sound I aim for.”

Charlie Andrew Producer, Mixing Engineer, Songwriter

Alt-J, Bloc Party, Madness, Marika Hackman

“I really enjoy the surgical precision offered by the Q-series EQ plugins, which are great for zoning in on problems or accentuating character.”

Shawn Everett Mixing Engineer, Producer

Alabama Shakes, The War on Drugs, Julian Casablancas, Grizzly Bear

“I’ve been playing with different EQ plugins for years, and I will never give this old girl up. It slices little painful nuggets out of audio better than anything. Other EQs do a similar thing, but there's something I find so musical and beautiful about the waves Q series.”

Eric Silver Producer, Musician, Artist, Writer

Donna Summer, Shania Twain, Dixie Chicks, Keith Urban

“I use the Q4 or Q6 EQs on my stereo buss to add some air and clean up the low end after running everything through the SSL G Master Compressor. A little help that goes a long way.”

Jim Fitzpatrick Re-Recording Mixer

Family Guy, American Dad, The Cleveland Show

“Q10 gives me the flexibility to configure it for whatever I need at the time. A tight notch, a smooth bell, a shelf and always a 2-pole high pass.”

Andrew Thornton FOH Engineer

The Wanted, Pixie Lott, Mark Ronson, Annie Lennox

“Q10 has been my parametric EQ of choice for PA outputs from day one.”

Bryan "Froggy" Cross FOH & Monitor Engineer

The Pussycat Dolls, Christina Aguilera , Sublime

“When I need to gently shape a sound, I still find myself going back to the original Q10.”

Tim Millikan FOH Engineer

INXS, Paul Kelly, Midnight Oil

“The Q10 is so simple and versatile, I can't remember the last time I didn't use it in some component of my mix.”

Thom Russo Producer / Engineer

Michael Jackson, Maná, Tom Morello

“The Q10 is a classic and an absolute essential: 10 effective, accurate, powerful bands, leaving nothing inaccessible. And still one of the silkiest top-ends on the market today.”

Tom Ozanich Re-Recording Mixer, Sound Designer

Kill Bill: Vol. 2, The Incredible Hulk, Speed Racer, 2 Fast 2 Furious

“Q10 was the first EQ plugin I ever bought, and to this day it's still the most flexible one I have.”

Neil Citron Guitarist, Producer, Engineer

Steve Vai, Steve Lukather, Larry Carlton

“Q10 is like the girlfriend that you never really got over. It always does what you want it to do and does it effortlessly.”

Guy Sigsworth Producer

Björk, Madonna, Seal

“The Q10 is absolutely vital to me—my first choice of notch EQs.”

Ken "Pooch" Van Druten Mixer, FOH Engineer

Linkin Park, Kiss, Justin Bieber, Jay-Z

“Almost 20 years later, the Q10 is STILL relevant, STILL one of the best, STILL a plug I use every day. When was the last time you could say that about ANY other plug in?”

John Cooper Music Mixer, FOH Engineer

Bruce Springsteen, Keith Urban, Sheryl Crow

“I use the Q10 as a default EQ for my master outputs to touchup on the fly. I actually have it built into my default templates for D-Show and in my MultiRack setups.”

Brett Dicus FOH, Post Production Sound Designer

Norah Jones, Bruce Springsteen, Ringo Starr

“I use the Q10 on every project, for everything from transparent contouring of a vocal to accurately tuning zones of a sound system. It's been a go-to tool for me for a long time.”

Bodo Schulte FOH Engineer

Nena, Schiller

“I use the Q10 to adjust PA systems. It's the only EQ with a Q-factor up to 100; I can cut out resonant frequencies sharp as a knife.”

Yoad Nevo Producer, Recording/Mix/Mastering Engineer, Composer, Multi-Instrumentalist

Sia, Pet Shop Boys, Bryan Adams, Air

“With separate EQ curves for the left and right channels, the Q10 can save the day on overheads, piano and other uneven stereo sources.”

Kris Menace Producer, Remixer

Depeche Mode, Robbie Williams, Moby, LCD Soundsystem

“The Q10 is one of the most-used EQs on my tracks. If you need to tweak the sound in a maximum way, it has to be the Q10.”
