VEQ-55b features four separate frequency bands with up to 12 dB of boost or cut and an extended range of fixed frequency positions. The high and low bands offer the option to switch between bell-curve or shelving behaviour. The unit’s musicality is partly due to the proportional bandwidth (Q) behaviour for each band — ranging from a smooth, wider-slope Q at more subtle levels of boosting or cutting to a more aggressive, narrower slope at higher levels.
In addition, adjacent EQ bands provide several overlapping frequency selections, allowing you to create complex curves when dialling in the perfect sound. As with all Antelope Audio Plugins, the tonal characteristics of the vintage circuitry were carefully modelled to impart rich analogue character to your sound.
