The Natural, Colorful Sound of the 70s Decades ago, EQ designers working within hardware’s limitations would choose a “greatest hits” collection of parameters and controls. The carefully curated choice of frequencies, slopes, and curves made it easy to dial in the ideal sound—from tracks to masters—within seconds. The V-EQ3 is true to that ideal, with a spectacularly detailed midrange, rich bass, and bright “air.” This isn’t a “surgical” EQ: its analog accuracy envelops the sound’s body with color and sparkle.
