5.1 EQ Type1
This style has minimal Gain / Q dependency, smaller amounts of boost or cut still have
relatively high Q, and it is therefore precise and well defined in use.
However it is sometimes difficult to obtain overall EQ fill on combined sources and subtle
EQ on vocals and the like, as the user needs to adjust the Q control to maintain an effect
when the gain is changed. Failure to understand this fact has often added to the
reputation of this type of EQ for sounding ‘hard’ or ‘harsh’. However, because the user
retains separate control of all its parameters, this EQ is still the most flexible for users that
have the time and patience to spend when using it.
It is most like the original SSL 4000 Series, and other ‘clinical’ styles of EQ that became
popular in the 1980’s.
