Pulse-Tec EQs v2

Emulation of the Legendary PULTEC EQs

The new Pulse-Tec EQs plug-in is a faithful emulation of the legendary PULTEC passive analog equalizers range from the 50's. The hardware has been heard on countless records and are still being used today.

The Pulse-Tec EQs v2 plug-in adds an adjustable analog circuit module that replicates the complex behavior of analog tubes and transformers. It generates a pleasant analog saturation effect, to any sound you feed into it.

V2 features a completely rewritten DSP engine, a brand new resizable UI with two skins, a new HLF-3 filter module, along with many other improvements.

The Pulse-Tec EQs include 3 equalization modules modeled after the original Pultec hardware, all in a single plug-in. Each module can be individually disabled or used simultaneously for full range equalization.

HLF-3 Module

The HLF-3 is a vintage filter module made of two high quality 12 dB/octave high-pass and lowpass filters. Each band provides 10 frequency options and can be individually used or disabled.

MEQ-5 Module

The MEQ-5 is a midrange equalizer which consists of two peak boost bands and one dip attenuation band. As an extra addition to the original design, the mid band filter offers 2 dip filters that can be used simultaneously.

EQP-1A Module

The EQP-1A section is composed of 3 filters: a low shelf, high peak and high shelf. The low band can be simultaneously boosted and attenuated to achieve the classic "low-end trick", while the high peak and the high shelf can only be respectively boosted and attenuated.

PRE-2S Module

The PRE-2S is the master section of the entire EQ chain. Use it to adjust the input and output levels, the amount of analog character and the dry/wet mixing ratio.

Backward Compatibility

Pulse-Tec v2 is not compatible with v1 sessions or presets. It is a completely new plug-in and therefore does not replace the v1 in your plug-in folder. You therefore have the option to keep on using the v1 version, to work on previous mixes.

Owners of the v1 version will be prompted to upgrade their serial number for the v2 version. Simply enter your v1 serial number from the plug-in and follow the instructions.

Note: Your old serial can still be used to authorize the previous V1 and work on previous mixes. Both versions will be available in your plug-in folder.

Product Features:

• Sample rates: 44.1 kHz > 384 kHz.
