Vintage and Modern Apogee FX Rack Plugins
Pultec EQP-1A
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.

- 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
