Great video! Would love to know your thoughts between the PQ and PassEQ - What's the difference in sound?

[@jasonalemon5874]

interested in knowing this as well!

[@purewaveaudio]

PQ is more typical functionality with 5 bands all having Q adjustments, massive overlap per band and all detents for recall. Passeq is Passive, Q adjust only on high end, and has 3 boost bans and 3 cut bands with detents. As I mention in the video; Passeq = broad strokes, PQ surgical if needed.

@@purewaveaudio thank you for the details - do they share the same sonic character?

[@purewaveaudio]

@@mixedbyedd No, they are different animals since one is active and one is passive. kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGrPkIqIbK9sfdk

Great demo. More please.

[@millenniummastering]

First useful demo of this on youtube! Thank you. Kind of reminds me of the Thermionic Swift in the highs.

[@draztiqmeshaz6226]

diggin those Focal towers in the background. Had the pleasure of listening to them. Once.

[@gainreduction8150]

It seems to me a very magical equalizer. I really liked the way the equalizer massages the sound in a very sweet way. It is a very tonal equalizer, incredible to draw sounds, to design them and give them that special tone. SPL has a beautiful sound. I am very honored to have some of your products. The analog sound of these people is very sweet. Very retro and very modern at the same time, the spl sound has that fairy dust. This eq is a serious investment

[@purewaveaudio]

I'm glad you like it

[@marcosmicha7169]

This is a very beaiutiful song ....full of emotions and memory....can you tell me where I can find it?...who is the composer? ¡Thank you very much!...¡The eq is great!...

[@paulmolive1821]

It honestly sounds like music from the John Waters film, “Polyester.”

[@2theJP]

wow thank you for the lesson.! awesome

[@famosguider205]

Good song and demo

[@StereotacticMusic]

Is this beauty Tube EQ?

[@purewaveaudio]

No, it is passive.

[@StereotacticMusic]

@@purewaveaudio Cool Thanks

[@Zenvo-uu9tm]

You mean it's solid state , passives can have tubes in their outpout stage too

[@amplifier2]

the hum …

[@siriusfun]

I suppose one could get used to it but it strikes me as terribly non-intuitive. That would really mess with my creativity and work flow. I'll Pass(eq). Chandler Curve Bender or Elysia Museq. Ahhhhh.

[@parklee3708]

It's not a bad demo but like most I'd much prefer a straight on shot so I can see the actual settings. Set the controls for the better then bypass/engage the device on the same section long enough to get a sense of what it actually sounds like. Twirling controls about quickly to extreme settings tells me nothing. Thank you.

[@luvitluvitbaby]

I have all 3, in plugin form of course lol! 😂😂😂😂
