Three Very Different and Highly Accurate Classic EQ Models! The Passive-Active Pack is a collection of three very different equalizers, each with its own character and quirks. The equalizers contain emulations of real workhorse equalizers, used on thousands of recordings from past to present. - Passive Equalizer is a three-band EQ with an unprecedented clear and open sound, a warm low end and sparkling top.
- Active Equalizer is Passive's counterpart with three fully parametric bands and a tight and focused sound.
- Focusing Equalizer is an untraditional take on the EQ concept where the low, mid and high bands move automatically and musically in relation to the high and low cut filters. It also features filters from the Passive and Active EQ's as well as an outstanding one-knob Saturation control.
At first glance it may seem like you're sacrificing versatility by using an equalizer with a limited set of options - why use a three-band equalizer when you can use your digital equalizer with umpteen bands, continous gain, selectable Q and different curves all built in? Well, equalization is all about sound design. Having an equalizer where the designer has already made some of the choices four you is like having an experienced sound engineer helping out and giving you directions. All equalizers are modeled using the same state-of-the-art technology as Softube used to create the very popular FET Compressor and the Brilliance Pack plug-ins for Abbey Road. The Softube team discovered early on that the human ear ignores many of the fine sonic details found in traditional models, and instead zeroes in on the crazy stuff, which the ear finds pleasing. In musicianspeak, it’s why so much of the coolest gear has tubes. So modeling the non-linearities of tubes, speakers, spring reverbs, power amps, and the like, was the natural musical path to follow. The end result of those studies was a significant body of proprietary, patented technology, and the subsequent formation of Softube. Since its founding in 2003, the Softube team has worked behind the scenes developing products for a number of highly-respected companies. Now they’re delivering a series of high-end, high-quality plug-ins under the Softube brand. Ear 2 Track is an authorized Softube Dealer and can provide sales and support for all products. |
