API 560 10-Band Graphic Equaliser<\/h2>\n

The API 560<\/strong> is a precision-engineered 10-band graphic equaliser<\/strong> originally designed for use in API consoles of the 1960s and 1970s. Known for its unmatched curve-shaping potential and signature analogue character, the 560 has become a go-to tool for signal sweetening, room correction, and tonal sculpting - all in a compact, easy-to-set format that retains API's iconic sound.<\/p>\n

The 560 offers \u00b112 dB of boost and cut per band<\/strong>, with fixed one-octave frequency centres<\/strong> and a centre detent for instant zeroing<\/strong>. Thanks to API's exclusive Proportional Q design<\/strong>, the filter bandwidth naturally adjusts - wider at subtle settings and narrower at more extreme boosts or cuts - providing musical, intuitive control over complex sources. This makes it an excellent companion to parametric EQs or for shaping sounds quickly and effectively.<\/p>\n

At the heart of the 560 is the API 2520 discrete op amp<\/strong>, which delivers unmatched headroom, low distortion, and the classic API punch. When paired with API's custom output transformers, the 2520 ensures powerful low-end response, tight stereo imaging, and that instantly recognisable analog warmth. With improved resolution in the \u00b14 dB range and a silent bypass switch<\/strong>, the 560 is both powerful and user-friendly.<\/p>\n
