TL Audio EQ2 Dual Parametric Valve Equaliser

EQ2 Dual Parametric Valve Equaliser description:

The TL Audio EQ2 Dual Parametric Valve Equaliser. Highly versatile twin parametric EQ, ideal for instrument and mix buss shaping with mic, line and Instrument level inputs.

The TL Audio EQ2 boasts two channels of fully parametric 4 band valve equalisation - which in conjunction with variable high and low cut filters offers unlimited control of any audio source. The EQ-2 provides continuously variable frequency controls, so the choice of frequency is not limited to switched selections. It also features a pair of the acclaimed TL Audio mic preamps (with phantom power), to enable high quality direct-to-tape microphone recording, and a pair of front panel auxiliary inputs enable a guitar or keyboard to directly access the EQ-2. Another feature is the "stereo mode" switch - when activated, the EQ controls of channel A automatically process the signal on channel B in an identical fashion - thus the audio signals through both channels have the same EQ applied to them: ideal for precise equalisation of stereo sources and overall mixes. The EQ-2 employs a total of six valve stages per channel: one in each of the four EQ bands, followed by a pair in the output stage. General Electric US military specification valves are used throughout, run from a stabilised 250v DC supply.
