Product information

Program Equalizer

In Apogee's obsessive quest to reproduce every nuance of the Pultec Program Equalizer, they have had a worthy partner - Steve Jackson of Pulse Techniques, the current manufacturer of new Pultec hardware.

After careful analysis of several vintages and new Pultec EQP-1A units, Apogee chose to model their plugin after one of Steve’s new units - it was like unboxing a brand new unit in 1959.

Features

  • Broad EQ curves, to gently but powerfully shape your sounds while maintaining their integrity
  • Interaction of Bands, to create characteristic EQ curves used by engineers for decades
  • Circuit Non-Linearites, to add the “magic” that hardware units are renowned for
  • Developed with Pulse Technologies, the current manufacturer of hardware Pultec EQs
  • Apogee plugin modelled from brand new Pultec unit
  • Officially Licensed and Endorsed by Pulse Techniques
  • Run natively in your favourite DAW (no Apogee hardware is required)
