Softube Chandler Limited® EMI TG 12345 . Curve Bender Mastering EQ .

If there was a hierarchy of analog studio gear (and let’s face it, there kind of is) it’d be hard to dispute the Chandler Limited® Curve Bender’s claim to the throne. Among analog mastering grade equalizers, this one’s about as blue-blooded as they come.
With tremendous pedigree, huge yet controlled power, and most importantly, exceptional sound quality, thanks to component-level modelling of the original germanium and inductor circuits, the Curve Bender, now available for the first time in native format, reigns supreme over the domain of tone-shaping in analog mastering.

Legendary circuits
The sound of this unit comes from equalizer circuits which can trace their lineage back to one of the most legendary high-end British consoles of all time, the EMI TG12345.

In short:

• Mastering grade analog equalizer.
• Silky top-end and tight lows.
• Based on legendary British console EQ circuits used on innumerable classic records.
• Professional engineer presets from Joe Chicarelli, Tony Maserati, Howard Willing, Kevin Kadish, and Maor Appelbaum.
• Improved with more bands, more filter-points, greater gain and Q flexibility, and additional low and high pass filters.
• Added Mid/Side processing and channel linking in the plug-in.
• Subtle yet authoritative; carefully considered curves and exceptional quality mean you can boost with confidence.
• Set it and forget it – it always sounds good.
• Use on master bus, instrument groups, or even individual tracks – it’s great on vocals.
• A real crown jewel in your collection.
