Steep LP and HP filters for maximum effectiveness and achieved passively for minimal coloration. Each band is capable of 20 dB of boost or cut combined with amazing headroom and freedom from clipping. It also eliminates the problem of a center detent not guaranteeing flat response. This provides twice the control resolution over conventional EQs. Make "telephone" voice sounds for special effects. Attack drums, guitar stacks, and other tough jobs. The highest Low Pass filters get even steeper. The way these filters interface with the parametric EQ bands simply sound beautiful. Why? So you can remove the garbage and not mess up your music. THE FILTERS HIGH PASS FILTERS 22, 39, 68, 120, 220 Hz, OFF LOW PASS FILTERS 6 kHz, 7K5, 9 kHz, 12 kHz, 18 kHz, OFF There are 5 High Pass Passive Filters and bypass, plus 5 Low Pass Passive Filters with bypass. To this end we finally have a new dedicated Mastering Version Massive Passive Stereo EQ available too. This combo could just be the ultimate processing chain. However, it is built to complement our Variable Mu® Limiter Compressor for instance. The astute reader will notice a lack of "buzz words" and that the Massive Passive is not built around gimmicks, plagiarisms, or conventional techniques. We could attempt to use dozens of superlatives to describe the sounds, but really, you have to experience it yourself. Being different also gives it some quirks and idiosyncrasies that will spark your creativity and sense of audio adventure. It allows huge HF boosts without sibilance problems and unbelievable fatness without mud. The difference is that the Massive allows twice as much EQ with half the coloration. It is designed to be a fundamentally different EQ but incorporates the best strengths of Pultecs, choice console EQs, parametrics and graphics. The Massive Passive is intended both for the most radical EQ sometimes needed for tracking as well as the most subtle shadings for vocals and mastering. Manley knows that recording and mastering equalizers are used by artists for artistic goals and we balanced this design with a little more art than science. The Massive Passive uses simple passive components and exploits their natural qualities rather than forcing a complex circuit to meet an arbitrary clinical or scientific goal. Creating natural, organic, acoustic tone can only be done with an equalizer that treats the signal with natural methods. Super-beefy, hugely-high-headroom Manley all-tube make-up gain amplifiers deliver your tunes into the next realm. Only metal film resistors, film capacitors and hand-wound inductors sculpt the sound, kinda like a Pultec EQ on hyper-steroids. "Passive" refers to the tone shaping part of this clever new EQ design not using any active circuitry. GOT THE PICTURE? The MASSIVE PASSIVE is a two channel, four band equalizer, with additional high pass and low pass filters. The sound I've always dreamt of but couldn't ever get until now." Engineers who have already gotten hold of the MASSIVE PASSIVE have told us: "Why does it make everything sound so much better?", "It's organic and orgasmic.", "It's a f%#king powerhouse.", "It's unlike any other EQ.", "This is IT. Put your hands on the knobs and crank 'em. Perhaps, but would photographs of our Variable Mu® Limiter Compressor or VOXBOX® have created their successes alone? You have to hear this gear.
