The
Dual Tube EQ from A R T is the world’s first affordable two channel tube-based
parametric equalizer. Each channel features a four band precision frequency
network designed to give you the ultimate in control over musical instruments
and vocals. Following our award-winning tradition of manufacturing world-class
tube processing equipment, A R T offers introduces what might be the most
musical and flexible EQ you’ve ever heard - the Dual Tube EQ.
Whether you are an experienced recording engineer, live sound technician,
or home enthusiast, you know the limitations of the EQ found on most affordable
mixers. You also know that you need at least one or two channels of high-quality
studio equalization to fine-tune that mix - or completely reconstruct that
lifeless kick drum. The Dual Tube EQ is your answer in either situation. Its
unique cascade feature even configures the Dual Tube EQ as a single channel
eight-band parametric!
The keys to the Dual Tube EQ’s exceptional sound are: frequency selection,
wide bandwidth, and the hand-selected 12ax7 vacuum tubes. The low and high
shelving filters are tuned to add low end wallop and delicate “air”. The two
mid frequency bands sweep from 20Hz to 20KHz and overlap between 200Hz and
2KHz. This allows for tremendous flexibility. The bandwidth (or “Q”) is intentionally
wide to provide a musical (not nasal) quality when cutting or boosting. To
quote one notable user, “The way it sucks frequencies is spectacular!”. The
vacuum tubes, used for gain, provide a unique smoothing effect when driven
with the separate input and output level controls.
Whether you like using gentle or radical EQ, the Dual Tube EQ will exceed
your expectations. Pick up a Dual Tube EQ at your favorite A R T dealer today
and experience the benefits a professional tube parametric equalizer can bring
to your recordings.
