Softube

The Passive-Active Pack is a collection of three very different equalizers, each with its own character and quirks. The Passive and Active equalizers emulate real workhorse units, used on thousands of recordings from past to present. The Focusing Equalizer combines these with analog sounding saturation and a novel workflow.

Passive Equalizer Features:
• Three bands with an extremely wide and open sound
• Excellent treble control without any "digital harshness"
• Warm low end and a sparkling top

Active Equalizer Features:
• Tight and focused sounding filters
• Low and High cut
• Three parametric bands with selectable gain in 2dB steps (-/+ 16 dB), selectable frequency with overlapping, but non-interfering, bands (50-500 Hz, 380Hz-3.8kHz, 1.8-18kHz) and a choice between a narrow or wide peak (Q) for each band.

Features Focusing Equalizer Features
• Inspiring, untraditional and very useful workflow
• Choose between Passive or Active EQ character
• Three-band EQ that automatically and musically changes with Low and High Cut
• Built-in one knob saturation with metering and selectable saturation type
