6 description::
7 The B equalization suite is based on the Second Order Section (link::Classes/SOS::) biquad UGen.
9 note::
10 Biquad coefficient calculations imply certain amount of CPU overhead. These plugin UGens contain optimizations such that the coefficients get updated only when there has been a change to one of the filter's parameters. This can cause spikes in CPU performance and should be considered when using several of these units.
13 [1] this is a composite pseudo link::Classes/UGen::. BLowPass4 is built by cascading 2 link::Classes/SOS:: sections.
