The EQ2 Programmable Equalizer
Second generation of Source Audio EQ pedals. This new EQ2 Programmable Equalizer have 10 band – the old Source Audio EQ from 2011 had 7 band. The EQ2 has Stereo in and out and you can save up to 8 presets. If you use Midi control you can save up to 128 presets. The EQ2 is both parametric and graphic. You just have to try it.
The controls on the face of the EQ2 Programmable Equalizer provide quick access to a deep set of tone-sculpting tools unmatched in traditional effects pedals, but connect it to the free Neuro Desktop Editor and Mobile App (via the pedal’s USB port) and access a beautifully laid-out set of controls ordinarily associated with only high-end rack gear. The Neuro Editor’s sleek and user-friendly interface includes detailed parametric editing capabilities (Q factor and frequency shifting) for all 10 frequency bands, two-channel stereo options, noise gate and limiter controls, as well as detailed external expression control. The Neuro Mobile App is available for free download at the App Store (iOS) and Google Play (Android). The Neuro Desktop Editor is available for Mac or Windows systems on our Editors & Firmware Page. We highly encourage all One Series pedal owners to experiment with the Neuro Editing software – the Source Audio Neuro Community is growing by the day, with users constantly creating exciting new pedal presets available for download.
The EQ2 Programmable Equalizer is the perfect companion for any musician looking to enhance or add flexibility to their tone. The availability of the full audible frequency spectrum across 10 completely customizable bands means that EQ2 is the EQ pedal not just for guitar, but for any electrifiable instrument. This allows you to move each of the 10 bands to any point on the frequency spectrum from 20 to 20,000Hz. With +/- 18 dB of boost or cut on tap for each band, bandwidth adjustments up to 10 times more narrow, flexible routing and separate stereo curves, an optional noise gate and limiter, and a deep interactive editing software, plus some shelving and high-pass frequency options, EQ2 is the ultimate Swiss-army knife for your tone.
