Product Description

• Meet SD-PE1! The most unique passive equalizer ever made joins the ever-expanding lineup of processors that make up the Virtual Mix Rack ecosystem. SD-PE1 provides a realistic reproduction of a classic passive EQ while also providing unique features only possible through digital emulation and modeling. When it comes to idiosyncrasies
• perhaps nothing outshines this EQ
• as it does not operate like most EQs people are used to. Toggle The Tube Stage A natural side effect of passive EQs is that the audio coming out of them will always be significantly quieter than the audio going in. To combat this
• the original hardware featured a tube amplifier stage after the EQ. SD-PE1 makes it possible to turn this stage on and off
• which means you can remove those saturation and color effects from the processed signal without a drop in output level. More Flexible Frequencies On the original hardware model
• frequency selection for processing was limited to what was presented on the front of the hardware. However
• in addition to adding extra frequencies to each band
• SD-PE1's frequency selection is both stepped and incremental. It s a tinkerer s paradise! A Piece Of Production History The piece of hardware that directly inspired this plugin has been a studio staple since it was first introduced in the early 1960s. The addition of SD-PE1 to Virtual Mix Rack's ever-expanding plugin ecosystem brings even more historic analog processing power and color right to your DAW.     macOS Minimum OS - macOS 13 or later Processor / RAM - Intel or Apple Silicon
