Iconic Vintage Sound Quality
The Audioscape EQP-2A reproduces the distinctive warmth and coloration of the original EQP units, providing a sought-after sound that enhances both individual tracks and mastering chains.
The Audioscape EQP-2A is a meticulously crafted stereo tube equaliser that combines the iconic sonic character of vintage EQP designs with modern engineering precision, offering true stereo operation, premium components, and unmatched tonal clarity for mixing and mastering professionals.
A Legacy of Sonic Excellence
Originally introduced by Pulse Techniques in the mid-1950s, the EQP-1 programme equaliser set a new benchmark in audio processing. Initially designed for mono applications, as stereo playback had not yet emerged as the dominant format, the EQP series quickly earned a reputation for its unique tube-driven tone. This characteristic warmth and colouration made the EQP not only a go-to for individual sources but also a sought-after choice for stereo bus and mastering applications when two units were paired. Though discontinued in 1981, its legacy endures, with its distinctive sound remaining a favourite among engineers and producers.
A Modern Stereo Solution
Audioscape’s EQP-2A reimagines the classic EQP design by introducing a true stereo format. Housed in a striking battleship-grey chassis, the EQP-2A faithfully reproduces the original’s sonic qualities while enabling seamless control of both stereo channels via a single set of controls. This innovative approach eliminates the complexity of managing two separate units and ensures consistent, precise stereo operation.
Uncompromising Components and Engineering
The EQP-2A features an array of premium components meticulously selected to match the performance of the original design. It includes NOS tubes, notably the rare NOS 6x4 rectifier tubes, which significantly contribute to its tonal authenticity. Custom-wound inductors and high-grade custom iron replicate the specifications and performance of vintage units, including the often-overlooked interstage transformer. This transformer, crucial to the original’s sonic profile, enhances both fidelity and the signature "box tone" that defines the EQP family.
Audioscape went further by addressing inaccuracies in the original schematics. Extensive research and testing revealed errors that compromised performance at specific filter settings. The corrected circuit ensures the EQP-2A delivers a sound that is not only faithful to its predecessors but superior in consistency and reliability.
A New Standard for Stereo Equalisation
By merging the revered tonal characteristics of vintage EQP units with modern enhancements, the Audioscape EQP-2A provides a comprehensive solution for audio professionals seeking both versatility and authenticity. Whether shaping individual sources, refining stereo mixes, or adding brilliance to mastering chains, the EQP-2A delivers exceptional results, all within a robust and elegant design.
