1. Introduction
Congratulations on the purchase of your TC Electronic PEQ 3000.
The Minimum Phase IIR PEQ 3000 Equalizer plug-in is part of the Icon Series of
plug-ins. In combination with an optional but dedicated Desktop Controller,
it takes mixing audio to a new level.
The PEQ 3000 is a Midas-powered 12 (+12) Band, Channel, Bus and Master
Parametric Equalizer. It features:

Mono, Stereo, Mid/Side and Left/Right operation

Phase EQ’ing

Midas
The PEQ 3000 builds upon the long heritage and experience of Midas live sound
mixing consoles. It is designed for the modern-day studio sound engineer
without compromise.
For decades, Midas has been a driving force in the world of pro audio. Building on
the incredible success of the analog flagship Heritage 3000, the ground-breaking
digital XL8 and PRO Series with their exemplary audio performance and proven
technology, the Midas PRO Series became the gold standard in concert touring
and installed live sound. Offering the same outstanding sample-synchronized
and phase-coherent audio performance, interpolated control functions and
intuitive navigation, the PRO1, PRO2, PRO3, PRO6, PRO9 and later the PRO-X
Live Audio Systems have become one of the industry’s main choices for live
sound mixing.
The introduction of the PEQ 3000 Equalizer plug-in is aligned with the
introduction of the next generation Midas live mixing console: the HD96-24.
For the first time, the Midas sound is available for the modern computer based
studios and live sound setups.
The PEQ 3000 has impressive 64-bit floating point processing, and up to
192 kHz sampling frequency, providing exemplary quality audio processing.
The combination of the True Analog feel of the user controls, the informative EQ
view, and High-Resolution Real-time Analyzer in the Plug-in or on the Desktop
Controller, all result in the smooth continuous response and immediacy of
working on an analog console.
The PEQ 3000 was designed with the main focus on speeding up your work
flow and letting you concentrate on the mix. It allows simultaneous display
and control of all the critical information required to craft an unprecedented
mix experience.
