Chandler Limited Germanium Tone Control - Manual (Page 4)

Controls and Features continued
THICK BOOST - The THICK Boost is an all inductor passive circuit capable of the fat dense lows
that inductor type EQs are known for. It is selectable between bell or shelf for flexibility and has 18db of
boost so you can fatten up even the thinnest of instruments or tracks. I tend to like the 35, 50, and 70 bell
for drums while the 90 and 120 shelf are very effective for big guitars and bass. See example settings.
PRESENCE - PRESENCE is an active section designed to sound like the many different British
console EQs from years past. The twist to our PRESENCE control is that each frequency is tuned
with a specific Q or width to make it most effective in areas where it will normally be used. 300,
500, and 800 have a sharper Q to make removing muddy mid range areas more effective.
1200 and 3300 have meduim Q while 4100, 6200, and 8300 are wide for smooth brightening of
tracks. There is 15db of boost and cut available on the PRESENCE control and it is an all
inductor based circuit for smooth pleasing tones.
TREBLE - TREBLE again is an active control designed in the British tradition. There is 18db
of boost and cut available on eight frequncies (3k9, 4k7, 6k8, 8k2, 10k, 12k, 16k, 20k). It is also
switchable between bell and shelf for flexibilty. The bell is purposely set at an even wider Q than
PRESENCE section for smooth gentle highs. The TREBLE portion is an all inductor based
circuit.
