Taking inspiration from the legendary 'Motown EQ', the Drawmer MQ-2 is a stereo, 7 band proportional Q parametric Equalizer with EQ curves akin to the renowned EQ's used in the illustrious Detroit studios in the 1960's. This 100% analog EQ, features 7 bell curves, each having a variable cut/boost of ±10dB and set at the beautifully musical frequencies of the original. However, the MQ-2 is not only an EQ, it also incorporates a program dependant, effortless to use one knob compressor that adapts its envelope to the characteristics of the signal. But it doesn't stop there, in addition it incorporates the highly regarded 'CRUSH' feature present on the Drawmer 1971. When you activate the crush circuit, get ready for some pleasing harmonic saturation and that classic analog warmth that adds a ton of character to any signal passing through the unit. The result? It fattens up the bass, adds presence to the mids, and brings a delightful shimmer to the top end. The harder you drive the EQ and compressor the more Crush you'll get! Using single controls for both channels it has never been easier to get the classic warm analog sound you've been looking for.
