Blindfold EQ is 4 bands equalizer inspired by a quote by Matt Wallace from the book Recording Unhinged by Sylvia Massy.

It has 4 bands (LowShelf, LowMid, HighMid, HighShelf), but each knob is blind. There are no indicators or numbers to show frequency values, gain values or Q values. You'd have to use your ears.

The mid bands are identical ranges to 1208 SEQ. LMF is 200hz-2.5khz (700hz centre), HMF is 600hz-7khz (2khz centre). I think the gain markings are increments of 4db, so 0, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20. The Qs are extreme, from mega wide (like 0.1) to ultra tight (maybe 24). This will be excellent at finding and cutting unpleasant peaks and decent at doing wider, character stuff. Tone wise I'd say it's a bit warmer than LKJB Tiny Q but not quite as sweet as Dead Duck EQ. CPU wise it's closer to Dead Duck than Tiny Q, so it's not bad but not super efficient. A decent sounding EQ with an annoying GUI gimmick.
