Nomad Factory has announced the release of Pulse-Tec EQs, which, as its name suggests, features emulations of a Pultec Program EQ. Priced at $149, Pulse-Tec EQs will be released on October 12th for Windows and Mac OS X in VST, AU and RTAS plug-in formats. However, between now and October 10th, 2009, Pulse-Tec EQs will be sold EXCLUSIVELY at DontCrack alone or as part of the Nomad Producer Pack bundle of 27 plug-ins at the incredibly reduced price of $249 (The Nomad Producer Pack is $3000 MSRP).
Pulse-Tec EQs includes emulations of the legendary Pultec Mid-Range Equalizer MEQ-5 and the inescapable Pultec Program Equalizer EQP-1A in a single high quality plug-in. Pulse-Tec EQs' sections can be enabled or disabled individually or used simultaneously for a full range of powerful analog equalizations. Nomad Factory added an analog Pre-Amp section which adds Input and Output Level controls as well as a simple 'Clipper' limiter at the master output section.
The Pulse-Tec MEQ-5 Mid-Range Equalizer section is designed to add Body and Presence to your recorded tracks - highlight or subdue a vocalist where the vocal is already mixed within the orchestra. It can also improve the quality of voices by alternating their fundamental and overtone relationships.
The Pulse-Tec EQP-1A EQ section provides a wide range of equalization curves that makes it possible to boost very low or very high frequency notes of the orchestra without muddying the middle register of the instruments. Continuous variable controls enables to change the amount of equalization or sustained tones without steps, level or noise artifacts.
