Get the warm, analog sound of classic Pultec EQs in your DAW with the Pultec Passive EQ Collection Plug-In from Universal Audio. The software offers meticulous recreations of three legendary rackmount units that studio engineers have used on countless mixes. Sculpt fat and punchy bass, synths, and drums with the EQP1A. Experience rich midrange textures on your guitars, vocals, and keys with the MEQ5. Create retro filter effects or reduce unwanted frequencies with surgical precision using the HLF3C. With painstakingly modeled amplifier sections now onboard, the Pultec EQ Collection breathes like the original hardware.

Use the EQs to tailor frequencies on individual tracks or buses, or give your master channel that signature airy, smooth-as-silk vintage tone. The Pultecs accel at making difficult-to-isolate instruments and vocals breathtakingly clear without affecting neighboring frequencies. Add subtle analog shading to your tracks by just passing the signal though or push the Pultec's fully modeled transformer and tube-based amplifier sections for added grit. This plug-in software download includes a native version that will run on Mac and Windows computers without UA hardware as well as a second version that runs accelerated on Apollo interfaces and UAD-2 hardware.

Going far beyond all other Pultec-style EQ plug-ins, the Pultec Passive EQ Collection gives your productions the rich, musical sound of the ultrarare vintage hardware—the culmination of the world’s most intensive modeling research.

Make confident broadstroke EQ moves and get the vibiest low-end you've ever heard. From bass guitar and synth bass to kick drums, you'll be amazed at the tight, focused thump, with the twist of a couple knobs. The Pultec EQP-1A's signature effect, unintended by its designers, is its ability to seemingly boost and cut the same frequency simultaneously. In reality, the filters actually alter adjacent frequencies, but the naturally interactive resonant dip has an amazing boosting and tightening effect—especially on bass guitar and kick drums.

The MEQ-5 Mid-Range Equalizer is the richly colorful tube-amplified companion to the EQP-1A. With two bands of midrange boost and one band of midrange dip, the MEQ-5 gets the very best out of the power region where guitars and vocals can make or break a mix. The unique band overlap and filter interaction unleash the vibrancy of these instruments in the track—without fighting your overall mix.

The never-before-available HLF-3C completes the Pultec Passive EQ Collection and features 12 dB per octave low- and high-cut filters, for broad retro-tonal sculpting or bygone-era special effects. With just two controls, the HLF-3C will give you vintage, lo-fi effects on your vocals and instruments, or let you surgically remove troublesome frequencies like excessive hiss and rumble that can build up and muddy your mixes.

In developing the Pultec EQ Collection, UA commissioned some of the biggest names in the business to develop custom presets. Check out John Paterno's (Steve Gadd, The Black Crowes, Bonnie Raitt) Clear, Big-Body Acoustic, and his U-47 and U-67 settings. Also, demo Jacknife Lee's (The Cars, U2, Taylor Swift) Drum Buss Earth and Air, and Acoustic Guitar Tamer.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Does it accept an rj45 port and do you have to contact the I.T. department to allow the device on their network?

A: The Compak does not have an RJ-45 but if you have a network phone system, keep the base of phone connected into network via the RJ-45 jack. Replace the handset from said phone with the JK Audio Compak. The Compak will now act as a handset and will require no special access because the base station phone is already connected into the network.

Q: 2. How many sets of bluetooth headphones can this connect to simultaneously?

A: only one! (BUT THE IDEM IS JUNK, ONLY LASTED 3 MONTHS) the battery swelled up.

Q: 3. I want to be able to conduct a traditional two person interview, but have the audio recorded on separate tracks/ channels. With that being said. would this work well with the Saramonic Blink 500 B2 2-Person Digital Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System?

A: Since the Blink 500 B2 sums the 2 mics into a dual mono mix, adding a SR-AX100 will not split it for you. You could purchase 2x Blink 500 B1 systems and the SR-AX100 and get each person on seperate tracks. You could even do that with a simple wire adapter instead of the SR-AX100, but the SR-AX100 will give you individual level control. If you already own the Blink 500 B2, you can add a Blink 500 RX to the system and get the same result. I hope that helps and isn't too confusing.

Q: 4. Can this pair with the Aluratek iStream receiver? (B&H # ALAIS01F MFR # AIS01F)

A: Yes the Aluratek ALAIS01F & ALABT01F are compatible with each other.

Q: 5. I used the device a couple of times with my iPhone 6 S and never could pair it again with my iPhone; whats the problem?

A: don;t have a clue...android works well on all my devices

Q: 6. Two questions: 1 how does this device get energy? - 2: if I connect a Sennheiser transmitter to a soundboard, I can connect the receiver to the Saramonic SR-AX101 to convert the line signal and then the Saramonic to my DSLR to get the sound?.

A: The Saramonic SR-AX101 is a passive device (no battery or power is required to function) for routing one or more audio signals to a camera. The mics you connect will need to be powered independently. The Sennheiser wireless system is self-powered, so it can be used with the SR-AX101. If you are only connecting one audio signal to the camera, you could connect the Sennheiser receiver directly to your camera. Please feel free to contact us if you would like further assistance.

Q: 7. Can I use it to connect a mixer board to my dslr?

A: No. You would require something with line inputs instead of mic inputs like the Kopul CMX-2-V2. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1332706-REG/kopul_cmx_2_v2_two_channel_passive_camcorder.html

Q: 8. Does the Aluratek ABT01F Bluetooth transmitter paired with Bluetooth headphones add a noticeable audio delay when used with a TV?

A: Discernible but still usable. Not critical.

Q: 9. Can this work on a canon Camcorder?

A: This will work with any camera with a 3.5mm microphone input. I cannot answer your question for your camera exactly because you did not include the model.

Q: 10. I used the ABT01F a couple of times with my iPhone 6 S and never could pair it again with my iPhone; whats the problem?

A: Remove the device from the phone's bluetooth list. Then try to pair it up again.
