2 Band Equalizer w/AIR BAND
®
(500 Series)
The Maag Audio EQ2® (500 Series) is a no compromise one channel 2 band equalizer with AIR BAND®, Low Mid
Frequency (LMF) bell boost from SUB to 1.4 kHz, and an INPUT ATTN to control down to –
12
dB of attenuation. The
EQ2
’
s AIR BAND® is equipped with an additional sassy frequency selection @ 15 kHz, making the EQ2 hard to re-
sist in any situation. The LMF provides both tight or wide bell curve options to dial in the perfect amount of warmth on
the 2
-
bus. When it comes to tracking, the EQ2 will quickly become your favorite preamps
’ “
better half
”
by controlling
the input (INPUT ATTN) (great for correcting over driven mic preamp transformers) before eq
’
ing with the versatile
AIR BAND and LMF. The EQ2 is compatible with the API 500
-
6B lunchbox® and 500VPR rack systems and any oth-
er 500 Series spec rack.
Following its EQ4® predecessor, the EQ2 provides unparalleled transparency and top end presence with the same
high quality components found in the powerhouse 6 band EQ4. EQ adjustments are obtained with minimal phase
shift and detent controls allow for easy recallable settings, even on the INPUT ATTN.
