What we say:
At A Glance:
The Source Audio EQ2 Programmable EQ is possibly the world's most powerful EQ pedal. With both a 10 band EQ and parametric EQ, plus a built-in tuner and the ability to store and recall presets that can be modulated via an expression pedal, the EQ2 really does go above and beyond any other EQ pedal we've seen before!
Features We Love:
Graphic EQ
The EQ2 gives you the ability to create your own custom EQ shapes using the LED Display, and with up to 18dB of boost and cut over 10 frequency bands, you can really carve out your sound to the finest detail. Are your pickups giving you an unwanted resonant frequency, is there an annoying buzz you'd like to eliminate, or are you wanting to create your own unique scooped sound? Everything is possible with this powerful pedal.
Parametric EQ
In addition to the graphic EQ, the EQ2 features a powerful parametric EQ that lets you swoop through the frequencies to find and dial out problematic peaks.
8+ User Presets
Up to 8 custom presets can be created and recalled using the pedal itself, however, this can be expanded to whopping 128 patches when using a MIDI controller.
Built-in Tuner
In addition to being a powerful EQ pedal, the EQ2 can also function as a tuner, which means it can actually save space on your pedalboard.
Expression Pedal Control
With the use of an expression pedal you can manipulate up to four individual parameters for simultaneous control, this gives you the ability to swoop through parameters for unique effects or create your own wah like presets. In addition to this, an external footswitch can be used to scroll through presets, toggle between channels, change settings and even reroute your signal path. Finally, the use of a MIDI controller can give you access to up to 128 presets or be used to make even more complex parameter changes.
Neuro Editor Software
While the pedal itself features an intuitive operation, tone chasers will absolutely love connecting the pedal to the Neuro Editor software or app. This explodes each preset out to give you a level of control unseen on other EQ pedals and lets you access features like custom EQ curves and routing your audio presets to individual outputs.
Who Is It For?
