Pultec EQM-1S3 Program Equalizer - Mastering Version

Classics Have Come and Gone. This One Came Back. PULTEC.

Built on the same model as the EQP-1A3, Pultec’s EQM-1S3 mastering equalizer advances the recording process with even more frequency options on the high band. In addition, the design offers two separate bands that make it possible to have supreme control over both the high and low shelf. With a unique vintage look and modern electronics inside, this new version of a classic piece of recording gear will be a perfect fit in any studio.

Revived and alive, Pultec is back and here to stay. Through a decade of relentless commitment to perfection, Dr. Steven Jackson restarted Pulse Techniques' production of the original PULTEC equalizers, making the magnificent low end, silky-sweet high frequencies and wide-open sound available again for the first time in 30 years.

Considering the rarity of vintage units, the new Pultecs at Vintage King make the classic Pultec accessible again. They’ve been responsible for making recordings sound great for over 60 years and will continue on, thanks to Dr. Steven Jackson’s great new gear.
