A must-have EQ mastermind for all.

Built in the expensive way

We have redesigned all the circuitry, and included 12 all-discrete opamps inside. Compared with the traditional IC opamps, the all-discrete opamps offer unrivaled bandwidth and dynamics. The circuitry is composed of precision transistors that are accurate to 1% throughout, with multiple layers.

Even without any noticeable colourisation, you can still immerse yourself in the beauty of analog.

Independent linear power supply

Each channel receives its own 56V high-voltage linear power supply. Such timeless power solution has been proven to be the bedrock of a clear and punchy sound. It helps handle a higher dynamic range, offers more headroom, and reduces noise effectively.

Extra effort was made to match the 2 channels in terms of level and other performance matrics.

Effective and precise

Each band has its own toggle switch to bypass, to select a ±5dB range (×1), or a ±10dB range (×2). At the ±5dB position, the increment of gain knob is as fine as 0.5dB. At the ±10dB position, the increment is 1dB.

Each band per channel marks a unique set of frequency points, collectively forming over 100 frequency points.

Both gain knobs and frequency knobs are custom-made with 21 steps.

The Q knobs at the top also have 12 steps between 0.6 and 4, with the iconic shelf option on the Low band and the High band.

M/S capability

We acknowledge and agree that M/S processing is essential for many engineers' workflow. Therefore, we made it easy to switch to the M/S mode with the press of a button. In this mode, the channel on the left becomes the mid channel, while the channel on the right becomes the side channel. You can also bypass the entire channel in either M/S mode or Left/Right mode.

Handcrafted & verified by human, for human.

Before it gets shipped, 2 real mixing engineers will test it and sign their names, so will every craftsman who participated in the making. Boutique-grade craftsmanship makes no effort in producing many.
