About This Listing

A ten-band inductor-based graphic EQ. Designed to work in standard "500" racks.
A new take on the console graphic, with ten easy to use bands. Each band uses a high quality inductor and carefully selected caps to set the center frequency. At full boost and full cut the bands are narrow enough to still be useful individually, but at lower settings the bands widen out for more gentle shaping. Even at full boost and cut, the filters are shaped to be musical and useful.
An illuminated pushbutton for relay true bypass (green) allows for easy comparison with unprocessed source material. A Tricolor LED meters the signal. The frequency response is +/- 0.25dB from 15Hz to 25kHz, and -3dB at 60kHz.
With specialized input and output transformers, the TAV has plenty of headroom, even at full boost. The entire circuit is discrete, with no electrolytic capacitors in the signal path, and no servo amps. With only two active stages, the current draw is low enough to work in any rack, and leave plenty of juice for other modules. The Tav uses one KDJ3 opamp and one KDJ4 opamp.

Product Overview
The Purple Audio TAV is a 500 Series graphic EQ with ten bands of inductor-based sweetening. This unique module takes a classic console equalizer and turns it on its head, with specialized input and output transformers and gobs of headroom, even at full boost. The TAV's proportional bandwidth means broader curves at lower boost/cut which get narrower as you move the sliders toward either direction's extreme. The TAV is a popular choice in the 500 format for guitars, vocals, and drums, though if you had an entire desk full of them you'd probably use them everywhere.
