In our obsessive quest to reproduce every nuance of the Pultec Program Equalizer, we had a worthy partner – Steve Jackson ofPulse Techniques, the current manufacturer of new Pultec hardware. After careful analysis of several vintage and new Pultec EQP-1A units, Apogee chose to model our plugin after one of Steve’s new units – it was like unboxing a brand new unit in 1959.

My son recommended the JBL eon mk2, as he had hired the same for his gigging. I can be set up in less than 10 minutes and pull down in the same time.
