These EQ curves, known as Baxandall curves, are famous for their unique sound-sweetening properties. BAX EQ isn't a surgical tool. Rather, it makes broad, musical adjustments. With it you'll achieve subtle, yet powerful, sonic refinements over wide portions of the frequency spectrum. BAX EQ gives you the same smooth sloping and unique sonic signature that has been prized by top mastering engineers for decades. Powerful filtering from easy-to-use controls Although it's as easy to use as a home stereo, Dangerous Music's BAX EQ is capable of powerful sonic feats. Everything starts with its high and low shelves, which are the best bass/treble controls you're likely to encounter. Each control gives you up to 5dB of cut and boost that you can use to sweeten and deepen your mixes and masters. You also get high and lowpass filters that make short work of infrasonic rumble and high-end harshness. At Sweetwater, we've explored new frontiers of sound-sculpting by playing the filters against the shelves. And all settings are easily repeatable, thanks to BAX EQ's stepped controls.High-quality components achieve real analog transparency Conceived by legendary designer Chris Muth, BAX EQ is one of the most transparent equalizers you'll ever use. That's probably why it's found in the rack of so many top mastering studios. Rather than introducing color, this EQ's shelves maintain phase coherence. No matter how you set it, BAX EQ will preserve the core characteristics of your mix. Instead of making drastic alterations to your sound, it will simply enhance what's already there. The end result is a mix with distinctively sweet, open highs and powerful, three-dimensional low-end.What the pros are saying about BAX EQ: "I always use the BAX EQ as the beginning of my chain... and sometimes I only need the BAX. I like the way it's designed because it's very musical. I also use the BAX EQ for cutting vinyl records, I have one in my mastering room and one in my vinyl cutting room, it's really perfect for reshaping the music for vinyl." — Antoine "Chab" Chabert (Mastering Engineer) "Stadium Red Engineer Ariel Borujow's [mix] chain is: out to the 2-BUS LT, to an SSL compressor, then to the BAX EQ. He swears by it, he won't mix any other way." — Claude Zdanow (Engineer, CEO, and founder of Stadiumred) "I love the BAX EQ! Its the cleanest and most musical piece of gear that I own!" — Glenn Schick (Mastering Engineer) "Great for making the tone more focused and tight in the low end, while adding brightness to the high end without being brittle." — Maor Appelbaum (Mastering Engineer) "The BAX EQ is an awesome piece of gear. I've been looking for years, maybe a decade, for an effective highpass filter that can take the infrasonic muck out of a mix, without destroying what's going on in the bottom end. And the BAX EQ is the only one that I've ever found that can do that. Add a little bang back in, right in the kick drum area, like 74Hz, and it's perfect. It's killer." — F. Reid Shippen (Mix Engineer) "The thing that really sold me on the BAX EQ is the highpass filter. I haven't found a plug-in highpass filter that sounds nearly as smooth. I think that the BAX has a highpass that sounds very transparent [and] there's less phase shift." — Jonathan Wyner (Mastering Engineer) "The BAX EQ is my new favorite box to put across my whole mix." — Fab Dupont (Mix Engineer) "It's especially effective in the low range. Just half a dB or a dB of boost really brings out the bottom out without making it sound muddy." — Marc Einstmann (Mastering Engineer) "As an owner of the 2-BUS, BAX EQ, the MONITOR ST, and the DAC-ST, I have to admit my mixing has more depth, very clean, and more headroom than I infrequently get; most importantly, it feels as if my mixes are done from a $2 million console. I am quite content with my work these days. I am a huge fan of Dangerous's gear, every piece is well thought out sonically and well physically designed." — Mackenold Jean Louis (Composer, Artist, Songwriter, and Mix Engineer) Dangerous Music BAX EQ Features: Classic Baxandall shelving curves are as simple to use as the bass and treble controls on a home stereo High and low shelves provide to 5dB of cut and boost for sweetening and deepening mixes and masters High and lowpass filters eliminate unpleasant infrasonic rumble and high-end harshness Broad Q-shelving allows for powerful changes without altering the core characteristics of your mix Stepped controls throughout provide accuracy and repeatability High-quality components ensure transparent, phase-coherent sound Gives you the same unique sonic signature that has been prized by top mastering engineers for decades SpecificationDetail Number of Channels 2-channel, Stereo Bypass Yes Number of Bands 2 High Pass Filter Yes Low Pass Filter Yes Q Type Fixed (Broad-Q Shelving) Boost/Cut Range ±5dB Freq Range High 1.6kHz-18kHz Freq Range Low 74Hz-361Hz Inputs 2 x XLR Outputs 2 x XLR Frequency Response 10Hz-20kHz (±0.1dB), 1Hz-80kHz (±0.2dB) Rack Spaces 1U Height 1.75" Depth 12" Width 19" Weight 12 lbs.
