Antelope Audio VEQ-56

Intro

VEQ-56 is a 10-band graphic EQ coming from a line of US mixing desks made throughout the ’60s and ’70s. It is known for its high headroom, consistency, ease of use, and above all its trademark American sound.

Description

VEQ-56 is a surgical graphic EQ that feels both musical and corrective. Particularly important is its unique automatic Q adjustment, which controls the filter bandwidth at the high and low extremes of each band. By design, the filter bandwidth is widened at lower amounts of boost or cut and narrowed at higher ones. This results in an unmistakable sound with a punchy, precise character. Just like with every vintage-inspired plugin in the Synergy Core Native library, all aspects of the 1969 original feel and operation of this EQ have been faithfully reproduced by the Antelope Audio team of engineers.

History

VEQ-56 originates from a highly revered line of 1960-70s American mixing desks. Long since its first introduction, this 10-band graphic equalizer remains highly sought after. Some of the reasons for the sustained interest in this peculiar unit include its high headroom, consistency, and ease of use. But the most important one is its trademark American sound!
