Rave Generation: TubEQ

Solid state / tube equalizer

Rave Generation: TubEQ
TubEQ is an equalizer with a tube stage: a low section modeled on the Pultec EQP-1A, six bands modeled on the Maag EQ4, and a tube stage modeled on a 12AX7.

With every knob at 0 the sound passes untouched. Each section comes in as you turn it up, and Auto Gain keeps everything the bands do not touch at its level.

Features
