Finally, after over 6 decades Heritage Audio is releasing one of the most desired equalizers of all time! After recently acquiring the famous 1960sPro Audio company LANG Electronics Inc…the PEQ-2 Program Equalizer has been reborn and is once again available to all. Not very many weremade and those that have survived until today are carefully guarded by their lucky owners. Many professionals have said that they actually prefer thismodel to the ubiquitous Pultec program equalizers. Both are essentially the same patented Western Electric design, very high quality passiveequalizers with inductors, but the fact that the PEQ-2 offers a sharper, tighter response makes it ideal for mix bus use where flabby, undefined soundcan ruin your results. A few important differences are: The PEQ-2 has nearly twice as many frequency options to choose from…26 compared to thePultec´s 14. The low end is infinitely more controllable as the LANG gives you the ability to Boost and Cut at different frequencies, unlike the Pultec.There is also a very useful 20 kHz option in the High Peak Boost section that can really be helpful. So those that are lucky enough to still have themwill not let them go. In fact, many have stated that they have become their ´secret weapon´ and totally rely on them to produce their trademark sound,including Allen Sides, Andrew Sheps and Joe Chiccarelli just to name a few.
The clear and easy layout makes the PEQ-2 very inviting to use and quick to dominate. Within no time you’ll be improving your tracks with verynatural, musical processing. With independent controls for Boost and Droop (Cut) of both the High and Low bands you can quickly transform yourmaterial in interesting, creative ways that you have almost certainly never considered before, nor would even be possible with a Pultec. Once you’vefound out how to mould your mixes with these you’ll wonder how you ever managed before.Lang Electronics Inc was famous for providing very high quality equipment at reasonable prices and Heritage Audio is intent on maintaining thatphilosophy. The PEQ-2 will be within everyone´s reach.
