-----------------------------------

The highest quality parametric EQ pedal, also equipped with a separate clean boost.

The Empress Effects ParaEQ MKII is the most perfect parametric EQ pedal, allowing you to precisely equalize your instrument without masking its sound.
The high-quality sound that is unique to Empress has been further upgraded with the MKII. The internal 28V boosted drive circuit provides headroom comparable to that of recording equipment and a signal-to-noise ratio of 108dB. Transparent sound quality and versatile controls allow for precise and sweet equalization of any instrument.
In addition, the +30dB clean booster, which does not lose any sound quality, can be turned on/off with a separate foot switch.

■ParaEQ MKII Main Features
The #1 EQ pedal returns - better than ever
The legendary Empress Effects parametric EQ pedal, known for its superior sound quality and functionality, is back with a groundbreaking upgrade, offering even more faithful sound and control while retaining the charm of the original ParaEq.

More Power
The ParaEq MKII pedal operates from an internal 28V boost, providing clean headroom without any unwanted clipping.

More Purity
Unlike graphic EQs, it uses minimal circuit topology to achieve ultimate tone shaping without any degradation in sound quality.

■Function details
The frequency ranges of each band of the Empress ParaEQ MKII are crossed over each other, allowing for flexible equalization.

low freq
It can cut/boost 15dB from 35Hz to 500Hz. Q can be selected from 3 types.

mid freq
It can cut/boost 15dB from 250Hz to 5kHz. Q can be selected from 3 types.

high freq
It can cut/boost 15dB from 1kHz to 20kHz. Q can be selected from 3 types.

boost
This clean booster provides continuous amplification from 0dB to 30dB. It allows for high-level boosting without any loss in sound quality. It can also be used as a mid-booster to emphasize frequencies around the midrange, or as a treble booster.

■Advanced Settings The Advanced Settings allow you to switch between ParaEQ MKII's bypass and boost control modes.

- Switch between true bypass and buffered bypass - Switch between boost modes You can switch the equalizer and boost sections on and off together or individually. Switch modes if you want to use the EQ and boost with independent bypass switches.

■Differences from the Deluxe Version The original ParaEq has been loved and trusted by musicians of all instruments for over a decade. Both the ParaEq MKII and ParaEq MKII Deluxe feature a low-noise, transparent signal path, making them extremely versatile.
Three fully parametric bands offer extensive tone shaping and precise fine-tuning, helping you find your perfect sound.

The higher-end model, ParaEQ MKII Deluxe, is ideal for players like these:
- I want to precisely adjust the extreme frequencies with high-pass and low-pass filters. - I want the sound of a Bandaxall filter that brightens the high end and adds depth to the low end. - I want to be able to handle any type of equalization.
