Origin Effects EQ Deluxe Studio Equaliser & Drive
The EQDELUXE is a 3-band inductive EQ based on the 1950s Pultec EQP-1a studio EQ and has been optimised for guitar and bass. The Pultec EQP-1a has remained a mainstay of high-end audio production for several decades thanks to its musical EQ curves, the subtle saturation of its push-pull valve output stage, and the famous “Pultec Low-End Trick”, which instantly adds weight in the bass frequencies. This makes it an engineer’s first choice for bass, but it’s a piece of equipment that improves any signal chain just by being there, adding charm, character and useful tone-shaping.
The EQDELUXE recreates this beloved studio piece for bass and guitar, with carefully chosen EQ frequencies, a little extra saturation and some further tweaks that help it fit into modern bass and guitar pedalboards. Although the EQ DELUXE is not guitar or bass-specific, we expect it to primarily appeal to bassists.
