Specially useful for midband oriented instruments such as guitars, vocals, harmonicas, and violins, the MID Frequency Enhanced Pultec EQ (MEQ-5 type) shares the same features and specifications as the Manley 'EQP-1A' version. The differences lie in the passive EQ section: In the MID EQ, the DIP and PEAK controls function on much sharper bell-shaped curves centered on the selected frequencies, which gives the engineer-producer more precise control over the vitally important midrange and makes the Manley Mid Frequency Equalizer indispensable for mastering engineers. The Manley MID EQ also completely fills the frequency gaps between the low frequency and high frequency sections of our Enhanced Pultec EQP-1A type EQ; thus the combination of the two provides a most flexible palette of possibilities for tracking or mastering.
