API Audio 550A

Few equalizers enjoy the respect and admiration of the coveted API 550A. Designed by the now legendary Saul Walker in the late 60's, the discrete 550A was first used as a modular OEM equalizer. As the industry rapidly embraced the sonic quality of the 550A, it quickly found it's way into many custom console designs by Frank DeMedio and other leading engineers. Many of these consoles are still in use today.Forty years later, the 550A remains the standard against which other EQ's are measured, and it has played a major role in the recording industry for decades. Still copied but never duplicated, the 550A became API's standard channel module EQ when the company began manufacturing consoles in 1971. With virtually all existing units spoken for, popular demand for this EQ resulted in API finally resuming production in 2004.With the long-awaited reissue of this unit, an EQ that has had such a part in the history of recording is continuing to make history in today's music.         FEATURES3 bands of classic API equalization Each band offers 5 API selected frequency centers Reciprocal and repeatable filtering maximum 12 dB of boost/cut per band EQ Band 1 and 3 offer shelf/peak switching "Proportional Q" narrows filter Q at extremes Traditional API fully discrete circuit design High headroom +30 dB clip level

API Audio 550B

The API 550 EQ played a major part in the history of music recording in the USA during the 60's and 70's. Originally conceived for use in API's consoles, this latest 550 "B" version is a continuation of the original 1967 550 through the 550A with one additional filter band and several new frequencies. Incorporating API's exclusive circuitry and proprietary components (such as the legendary API 2520 op-amp), the 550B artfully blends the past with the present. So many hit records still depend on the unique 550 sound, that the 550B will be an invaluable tool you will turn to again and again. The API 550B—unlike any other you will ever use.Many EQ's today offer a huge assortment of complex features, but the API 550B provides exactly the right number of controls to the professional engineer. Deceptively simple at first glance, the 550B's four EQ bands are overlapped significantly to aid in dual roles as problem solver and sweetening device. Each band offers 7 switchable filter frequencies spanning 4 to 5 octaves, selected through experience by a "who's who" list of the industry's most proficient engineers. This re-issue design has been taken from the original blue prints and spec control drawings from the API archives.Features: 4 bands of our famous sounding equalizationEach band offers 7 API selected frequency centersReciprocal and repeatable filtering12 dB of boost/cut per bandEQ Band 1 and 4 offer shelf/peak switching"Proportional Q" narrows filter Q at extremesTraditional API fully discrete circuit designHigh headroom +30 dB clip levelRe-issue of 1967 API 550 EQ with an extra band

SSL 500-Series 611 EQ

Loved by Generations of Professional ProducersThe E-Series EQ 500 series module reproduces the legendary sonic signature of an early 80's classic, the equaliser section of the Solid State Logic SL 4000 E console channel strip, which has featured on countless classic recordings from the 1980's to the present and shows no sign of stopping. The 611 design E-Series EQ also feature on Solid State Logic's latest audio production console, ORIGIN. FeaturesImmortal SSL 4000 E Series circuitry"Black-242" and "Brown-02" twin EQ designVersatile 4 band channel EQBell curve option on HF and LFFully parametric LMF and HMF with QBased on classic 611E console channel stripUnique response & tonal characterThe E-Series EQ Module features two different EQ's found on editions of the console produced between 1981 and 1989. Each EQ has unique response curves and tonal character. Historically the type of EQ fitted in an individual console was distinguished by the colours used on the LF knob caps so the two flavours have become known as the 'Brown' and 'Black' EQ's. On the E Series EQ Module you can switch between these two different flavours of EQ that have been loved by generations of professional producers.

Neve 88R LBEQ 500

Console-grade EQ in a Compact ModuleTeeming with legendary Neve character, the 88R LBEQ packs four bands of parametric, console-style EQ into a convenient 500 Series module. The Neve 88R LBC is patterned after the topology of the large-format 88RS console, yielding a sublime combination of high-precision transparency and high-impact tone shaping. From subtle enhancement to intricate frequency surgery, you’ll value this module’s console-grade flexibility, melding ±20 dB gain per band, extensive frequency overlap, and smoothly adjustable Q. Moreover, the 88R LBEQ’s musical response, nonexistent phase shift, and broad headroom rival that of its large-format predecessor. Boasting the same sonic pedigree trusted and employed by such iconic facilities as Abbey Road, AIR Studios, and The Village, the 88R LBEQ brings elite-class tone-sculpting capabilities to modern hybrid studios seeking both legendary Neve sonics and the power, headroom, and control modern engineers demand.Precision EQ with a revered pedigreeThe Neve 88RS console stands as one of the brand’s crowning achievements, revered for its sonic accuracy, aural transparency, and muscular punch. Built around the same precision topology as the 88RS, the 88R LBEQ packs the same sonic wallop as the venerated large-format console, reimagined as a compact 500 Series module. And it does so without compromise, delivering over +27dBu of headroom, greater than 107dB dynamic range, and ultra-low distortion of less than 0.004%. Moreover, it draws less than 145mA RMS while maintaining optimal headroom and transient response. With the 88R LBEQ, you’ll gain access to the same authoritative character found in the world’s top studios, such as Abbey Road, Air Studios, and The Village.Neve: the legend continuesRupert Neve started designing audio equipment in the tube console era but made his mark with solid-state designs. Setting up shop in Little Shelford in the ’60s, Mr. Neve faced many obstacles establishing his brand amid a new technological landscape. Transistors were new, expensive, and difficult to obtain in quantity in the UK. Reliable faders didn’t exist yet — a far cry from today’s world, where parts are affordable and readily available from multiple suppliers, all competing to win bids. Nevertheless, Rupert persisted. And by the early 1970s, the Neve company was humming along, taking orders and building custom transformer-balanced consoles for recording and broadcast studios the world over.Neve 80-series consoles had a huge, punchy, and authoritative sound that defined the sound of ’70s rock. From London to New York to Los Angeles and beyond, top studios were installing Neve desks as fast as they could. By 1978, with the introduction of the majestic 8078 — the pinnacle of handwired analog “production” consoles — and NECAM automation system, Neve boards were the main component of the success formula for any recording studio with world-class aspirations. In the decades since, Neve has innovated with groundbreaking products such as the VR, VX, and 88R series consoles. And today, the company continues to advance the state of the art with cutting-edge pro audio gear that sounds incredible and intelligently addresses the challenges of the digital age.Neve 88R LBEQ Features:Packs console-style EQ into a convenient 500 Series moduleNeve 88RS-style topology yields a sublime combination of high-precision transparency and high-impact punch4 bands of parametric EQ tackle subtle enhancement and intricate frequency surgery with equal aplombDelivers ±20 dB gain per band, extensive frequency overlap, and smoothly adjustable QMusical response, nonexistent phase shift, and broad headroom rival that of the full-sized 88RS consoleHandcrafted in England using premium components and calibrated in house

Dangerous Music BAX 500

Dangerous Music didn’t bring BAX to the 500-series until it could be done with zero compromise. BAX500 follows the same core design principles as the rackmount BAX EQ, using identical exacting components selected for both performance and sound, and tested to draconian tolerances to ensure consistency, reliability, and long-term stability.The Broad BAX500 shelves shape several octaves at once, allowing small adjustments to unlock depth, sheen, and weight without pinching the sound or introducing phase incoherence or harshness. Where narrow, surgical EQs excel at solving problems, BAX500 is designed to make musical decisions—revealing what’s already there rather than imposing a new character.High Cut and Low Cut filters with smooth, natural slopes remove infrasonic rumble and ultrasonic interference that quietly eat headroom, smear transients, and reduce clarity. By cleaning up the extremes before further processing, BAX500 helps mixes translate more easily while preserving openness and punch.The signal path is DC-coupled up to the Low Cut filter and features a relay-controlled hard-wired bypass that physically removes the circuit from the signal path for true A/B comparisons. The steel enclosure is fully shielded to protect against unwanted electromagnetic interference, and the laser-etched, paint-filled faceplate is designed to remain legible and durable over decades of use.
