So I decided to limit the maximal frequency to 10kHz, so you can have more precision on the "useful" frequency range.
Anyway, if it may be useful for some users, we may give an option to go up to 20kHz.
Yes, please give us an option to be able to go up to 20kHz with the high pass filter!

I understand that using higher than 10kHz high pass filter settings is not very good idea when using the Air Eq just as an eq with static settings for an audio track (because not much goes thru) but if you use the Air Eq as a high pass filter and automate the high pass frequency you can do some nice fade ins and outs or special effects with the high pass filter. However, currently the high pass sweeps stop at 10kHz .

If I want to fade in a drumloop with low pass filter, it should already work well because the low pass filter can sweep from 20Hz to 20kHz (I guess it works well when using automation. I haven't been able to automate the cutoff frequency because I use only the demo.) But if I want to bring in a bassline for example, I usually use high pass filter and start the sweep from 20kHz that at first nothing goes thru the filter. So if you extended the high pass filter frequency range to 20kHz, the high pass filter could be better used for high pass sweeps, fade ins and outs.
