MASSIVE PASSIVE er en to-kanals fire-bånds equalizer tilføjet high pass og low pass filtre. Med “passiv” menes her at tonedannelsen i det smarte nye EQ design ikke bruger nogen form for aktivt kredsløb – det svarer lidt til en Pultec EQ på hyper-steroider.

Naturlige metoder

At skabe en naturlig, organisk lyd kan reelt kun ske ved at bruge en EQ, som behandler signalet med naturlige metoder. Massive Passive bruger simple passive komponenter og udnytter deres naturlige kvaliteter frem for at lade et komplekst kredsløb tvinge signalet i en bestemt retning. Sammenlignet med andre enheder tillader Massive Passive, at du kan bruge meget mere EQ med meget mindre farvning.
