British console sound in a 4-band 500 Series equalizer

The Little Devil EQ is a discrete, transformer-balanced 500 Series module that combines Wade Goeke’s designs with studio favourites of the past. It is a small package with a huge sound: a Chandler-ised British console sound in 500 format.

It features all-discrete circuits with custom transformers, an inductor-based EQ that modern gyrator circuits can’t touch, and a classic Baxandall tone control that sounds simply huge. Every unit is handmade with through-hole components and hand wiring, with no surface-mount parts, the way favourite vintage units were built.

Big sound in a small module

The British consoles of the ’60s and ’70s built their reputation on inductor EQs and discrete circuits. The Little Devil EQ follows that recipe and condenses it into a single 500 Series slot.

Inductors and Baxandall

The mid bands use real inductors for a natural, musical curve, while the high and low shelves follow the classic Baxandall tone control. The result is broad, gentle boosts that open up the sound without harshness.

Four bands with ±18 dB

The 12 kHz Treble shelf and the 50 or 110 Hz Bass shelf frame two mid bands. Hi Mid covers 1.2 to 8.2 kHz and Lo Mid 220 to 820 Hz, each with Hi or Lo Q for narrow corrections or broad moves. All bands offer up to ±18 dB.

Filter and construction

The low filter at 47, 82 or 150 Hz clears out unwanted lows and true bypass allows instant comparison. Every unit is hand-assembled with through-hole components, and the upgraded power section ensures compatibility with current 500 Series racks.
