PREAMPS/EQS/DIRECTS:
API 550A
vintage semi-parametric EQ (1974) x2
Three-band studio standard equalizers. All discrete. Selectable frequencies
with 12dB of “proportional Q” gain, high and low shelving
options, and high pass filter. Slightly “hard” sound, especially
useful for maintaining clarity on bass-heavy instruments. These came out
of a console at a PBS station.
