Only metal film resistors, film capacitors and hand-wound inductors sculpt the sound, kinda like a Pultec EQ on hyper-steroids. Super-beefy, hugely-high-headroom Manley all-tube make-up gain amplifiers deliver your tunes into the next realm. \"Massive\".... it's a fitting word for this beast. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCreating natural, organic, acoustic tone can only be done with an equalizer that treats the signal with natural methods. The Massive Passive uses simple passive components and exploits their natural qualities rather than forcing a complex circuit to meet an arbitrary clinical or scientific goal. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Massive Passive is intended both for the most radical EQ sometimes needed for tracking as well as the most subtle shadings for vocals and mastering. It is designed to be a fundamentally different EQ but incorporates the best strengths of Pultecs, choice console EQs, parametrics and graphics. The difference is that the Massive allows twice as much EQ with half the coloration. It allows huge HF boosts without sibilance problems and unbelievable fatness without mud.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequencies\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh Pass Filters = 22, 39, 68, 120, 220 Hz, OFF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow Pass Filters = 6, 7.5, 9, 12, 18 kHz, OFF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow - 22, 33, 47, 68, 100, 150, 220, 330, 470, 680, 1000 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-Mid - 82, 120, 180, 270, 390, 560, 820 Hz; 1.2, 1.8, 2.7, 3.9 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-Mid - 220, 330, 470, 680 Hz; 1, 1.5, 2.2, 3.3, 4.7, 6.8, 10 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh - 560, 820 Hz; 1,2, 1.8, 2.7, 3.9, 5.6, 8.2, 12, 16, 27 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach band can be bypassed or set to boost or cut up to 20 dB.
