This is good information to know about it being a bit tough getting used to using. I've been curious about this piece for a while, but there's so little about it out there... I'm mostly eyeing their PassEQ. Looks like they'll be releasing an updated version any day now. Did you feel there's much to the 120volt rail tech?
Their new Passeq is coming out in a few month, or even weeks now, and it's gonna be a big one : up to 35khz high shelf, all passiv (pultec like) but on solid state with 120v rails opamp (amaaaazing sound) and also includes auto bypass.
Wow I'm really disagreeing with that review here..."it's not got any kind of flavor"...the Const Q mode sounds even warmer than my Manley Massive Passive...and the link is actually linking the switches thanks to relays inside, not the frequencies at all...I think you obviously miss the point with that monster, my 2 cents.
Yeah I really wanted to connect with it more but I only had it for a couple of weeks and didn't trust it enough to use on everything...I'm sure it's great but I didn't exactly hear it as being warm...
Accurate review, Streaky. The knobs are indeed a bit fiddly and using this EQ comfortably takes a little time. The Prop Q mode basically makes the amount of boost dependent on the bandwidth (Q) setting, not unlike a Massive Passive in that way. It's a little counter intuitive at first but can sound very sweet and musical compared to constant Q after careful experimentation, especially in the midrange. I've found the unit adds a bit of a forward attack in general as well, kind of helps transients poke through a bit sharper in combination with the Buzz REQ I also have here. Keep up the great work, love these videos!
i always wanted to know why the Weiss EQ 1 cost so much when it's a digital EQ what's the difference between fabfilter EQ 2 when they are both digital🤔
I mainly hear you complain about the knobs. So many ME use the PQ or the Passeq nowadays that it would have been nice to do your homework before posting a video about it. Good channel overall but a clearly pointless review. I agree with other posts here: how can you even do an Eq review without any sound ??? What does it even mean ??? You don't even mention that it works on the 120V rail technology Spl developed ...
I do like your down to earth reviews,its good knowing that we are all the same with gear,trying to work out what the hell it does.
it would have been nice to listen to some examples man :) and to see you using it ;)
Romain Porquet sorry will do next time
I agree!! Seeing you work would be a blessing from the gods. Thanks for all the vids and the inspiration :)
Maybe by linking both sides one becomes the master L or R ? As we can find in others maybe a DPR 402 comp or a Drawmer, but I don't remember...sorry!

TheUnik mgmt yes, I'm very excited about that, as well as another update they'll be putting out soon... :)
It is a bit disappointing to hear such review. You have not done your homework before hand. This is not a review, merely a poor opinion.
how would it compare to the "Manley Massive Passive"?
I really wanted to like this Eq but it just didn’t do it for me at all.

treztracks It’s a weird one must be due to the dedicated chips etc...still one of my fav eq‘ s
