The Class AB EQ circuit used in the EQ-81 MKII is similar to the EQ section of the classic 1081 module, without the high and low pass filters. The sound character is warm, percussive, soft and musical. These classic characteristics have been heard on countless recordings over the years and it's a versatile sound that works great on most sound sources and in most genres. The essence of this sound is now available at a surprisingly low cost, making it accessible to almost anyone. The EQ-81 MKII has stepped frequency controls that provide a wide frequency selection from 33Hz to 15kHz. The BASS and TREBLE frequency bands are switchable between shelving and bell and the MID frequency bands are bell type with a switchable Hi Q setting. The control range is +/- 18 dB. All four bands can be set to off mode.
