Shape the frequencies that human ears are most attuned to, with precision and a warm touch. The Pultec MEQ - 5 has been the top midrange equalizer since the 70s, and now you can access this classic hardware digitally. Apogee, in its pursuit to replicate every detail of the Pultec Program Equalizer, partnered with Steve Jackson of Pulse Techniques, the current maker of new Pultec hardware. The Apogee Pultec MEQ - 5 Midrange Equalizer plugin accurately recreates the original hardware to precisely sculpt crucial midrange frequencies. Features include: developed with Pulse Techniques, modeled from a brand - new Pultec unit, officially licensed and endorsed by Pulse Techniques, comes with FX and FX Rack versions, runs natively in your preferred DAW on Mac without Apogee hardware, and runs on Apogee hardware DSP in Element Series and Ensemble Thunderbolt audio interfaces with DualPath Monitoring for near - zero latency recording.


Using the Apogee Pultec MEQ - 5 is easy. First, open your favorite DAW on your Mac. You can use the plugin natively without needing any Apogee hardware. If you have an Element Series or Ensemble Thunderbolt audio interface, you can also run it on the Apogee hardware DSP. Once it's loaded, start adjusting the controls to shape the midrange frequencies. You'll notice the precision and warmth it adds to your audio. When using the FX and FX Rack versions, explore different settings to find the sound you like. As for maintenance, keep your software up - to - date to ensure optimal performance. Also, make sure your computer meets the system requirements. If you're using it with Apogee hardware, follow the general maintenance guidelines for that hardware, like keeping it clean and properly ventilated.
