Tonelux EQ5P 4-Band Discrete Parametric Equalizer (500 Series) #2

Up for sale is a Tonelux EQ5P 4-band parametric equalizer for the 500 series format. Designed by Paul Wolff, this is a highly revered, discrete EQ module known for its incredibly musical "Proportional Q" design (Constant Energy Curve) and an output transformer that adds the signature analog "iron" punch to your tracks.

The EQ5P dynamically adjusts filter bandwidth based on your boost/cut level (wider at low levels, narrower at high levels), giving you a vintage style operation that is highly intuitive and nearly impossible to make sound bad. For surgical tasks, the lower three bands feature a switchable fixed 1/3 octave "Peak" mode.


Item Condition:

  • Condition: Excellent. The unit is extremely clean, works flawlessly.
  • Studio Environment: Used exclusively in a professional, non-smoking studio.
  • Maintenance: All of our gear is regularly serviced and kept up to peak spec by a top technician in NYC.
  • Included: Tonelux EQ5P 500-series module only.

Key Features and Technical Specs:

  • 4 Overlapping Frequency Bands:
    • Band 1 (Low): 16 Hz to 1 kHz
    • Band 2 (Low-Mid): 50 Hz to 3 kHz
    • Band 3 (High-Mid): 500 Hz to 21 kHz
    • Band 4 (High): 500 Hz to 21 kHz
  • Proportional Q and Constant Energy Curve: Bandwidth automatically narrows as boost/cut scales up to +/-15 dB.
  • Surgical Precision: Switchable fixed 1/3 octave Q on the bottom three bands for precise frequency notching.
  • High Frequency Shelf: Top band switches into a broad, sweet shelving mode from 500 Hz on up.
  • Smart "In" Switch: Bypasses the filter circuitry silently while keeping the discrete line path and output transformer engaged for tone shaping.
