Purple P-1

Purple P-1 a legendary tube EQ in plug-in, that can give your tracks the massive bass, silky air, and addictive warmth that made this a studio standard.

The two-band design basically gives you flexible low shelving, along with broad-bandwidth mid-range peak control. Because the boost and attenuate controls work independently you can use "the trick" to add weight to the bass region while also notching a bit above the cut-off point, by boosting and attenuating at the same time. On the high-frequencies, you can set separate ranges for the boost and attenuation. Using this technique, you can boost at 12 kHz and cut at 5 kHz, adding "air" to a track without increasing presence.
