Vintage EQ
Inspired by legendary British large console EQs,
the UltraLite-mk3
Vintage EQ section
(Figure 10-10) gives you the look, feel and sound of
the most sought-after classic equalizers. Five bands
of center frequency parametric EQ filtering are
provided, each with four EQ types that provide
current popular EQ styles and vintage analog EQ
styles alike. Two bands include shelf filtering. Two
additional bands of variable slope low pass and
high pass filtering are provided. The filter response
display provides comprehensive control and visual
feedback of the EQ curve being applied. With
64-bit floating point processing, the UltraLite-mk3
Vintage EQ has been carefully crafted and
meticulously engineered to produce musical
results in a wide variety of applications.
Enabling EQ
Each input and output channel has a global EQ
enable/disable button (Figure 10-3 and
Figure 10-6). This button enables or disables all
bands of EQ for the channel. In addition, each
individual band of EQ has a
Filter enable/disable
switch (Figure 10-10), allowing you to enable as
few or as many bands as needed for each individual
channel.
