Extremely helpful to see the curves, thanks. There's more high end boost response than my ears perceived, and explains the feedback issues at the gig last weekend
@@freakkyt the price point was a big factor. Usually mixing just my voice and guitar so I have the EQP-KT & KT2A on my main bus, in mono of course, and out to the mains. I think they add a little sweetening to the live mix
After a few months with the EQP I am definitely going back in for another one. One thing about the KT is the mid range dip seems to be slightly more aggressive compared to the more expensive models and the range of gain between subtle saturation and all out clipping seems more narrow. Once you dial it in right this can be great
Indeed, audio gear is there to be used with your ears, not with your eyes! The aim of tracing the curves is more the other way around: find out where that smoothness when you edit a frequency in this pultec-style EQ comes from. In contrast, others like the Mesa Boogie graphic eq have been traced to visualise why they are more "surgical" for relevant guitar freq bands, trace the actual cutoff freqs, Q width and max/min gains.
Funny, I didn't even realise I made these tests public, they were intended as rough benchmarks to share with friends. Looks like they could be useful to someone, so I'll leave them up. It was done with a daw and Bertom eq analyzer plugin.
@@freakkyt yeah definitely keep this public. it's very helpful since I wasn't sure if the famous Pultec low end trick actually worked on this cheap unit. So thanks again for posting :)
@@TonyMacaroni69_ the low end curves are supposed to be pretty similar to the Pultec, while the high frequency ones are different, looks like lower Q value, so wider bell than Pultec. Of course, curves are not everything, and I've never had a Pultec so I;m not comparing the sound if the two, but it sounds good to me and it's fun.

El único video que muestra, con ayuda de Bertom, las curvas del EQ. Hasta me dieron ganas de adquirir uno :)
Killer visualizations. Thanks for posting.
Amazing video for anyone wanting to understand the famous Pultec low end trick. Great stuff.

Interesting, I haven't seen many pultec-style EQs being taken on the road. I guess the cheap price tag and reduced weight helps :)

Nice! I just tried a VST, that's modeled after the Pultec. Love the sound of it. Thanks for doing this video!
Thank you so much for this video! Very informative visuals on this unit.
Klark T EQP KT is awesome ❤
helped me a lot to understand what this EQ do. thanks a milion

muy buen video bro gracias por tu aporte …..
Thank you so much for this 🙏🏾
V useful. Thanks for uploading!
Very informative, but somebody please tell me what the purple line is?
The purple line is the phase shift plot.
Very useful. Thanks
Thanks bro good video
Thank you !!!
Muito bom 👏👏👏👏
Huge amount of possible curves. Without the visualization...you gotta use your ears!

@@freakkyt Always the ears. They shouldn't lie. Cheers.
thank you so much! how did you do that?

@@freakkyt yeah, I'll definitely be getting one asap! :D
This saved my mic mix
helped me a lot to understand what this EQ do. thanks a milion
