Hum
Waves modeled both 50Hz power current and 60Hz power current. If you listen closely, you will
hear that there is a difference in hum level between 50Hz and 60Hz. Since hum is unique to
each region and dependent upon the local electrical conditions, you may find that the modeled
hum is different than the hum already present in your studio, and may not be suitable for your
particular
use.
• Transformers
Some hardware uses transformers to stabilize or change Input/Output loads and signal levels.
In earlier days, transformers did not have a flat frequency response, and often introduced low
and super-high frequency roll offs. The original Pultec MEQ-5 has transformers which cause
high frequency roll off, so if you encounter loss above 10kHz, this is due to the modeled
transformers.
