EBS_freak Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 http://www.rolls.com/productImage.php?pid=RPQ160b I've been using digital mixing desks for some times and one of this things that I really love about them is the uber powerful EQ shaping thats built into them. Cut and boost, frequency and Q for typically 4 bands with LPF and HPF. So, I actually set about looking for a digital pedal that maybe somebody has implemented that achieves what the digital desks do. I didn't find one. I know there are loads of channel strips and the like about... but this relatively cheap effort from Rolls, seems to be incredibly flexible on the tone shaping front. Anybody ever used one with their bass? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dood Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I've not used this unit but if you can find one of the now discontinued Alesis DEQ rack EQ units I think you'll be impressed. I use the half rack version that I think is known as the 224 but there's also a full rack version with RTAS on board too. They are programmeable allowing you to save separate curves for left and right channels. Mine is a 24 band. The full rack versions I think have MIDI implementation too. Oh and they are dirt cheap secondhand which is a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTypeV4 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Sony used to make the SRP-E300 - I use these for monitors.. 30 band graphic EQ 4 band fully parametric Delay on outs Digi (AES) and Analogue in Recallable patches All in a convenient 1U rack device. Each one has two channels so if you ran one into the other you'd get 8 bands of parametric and 60 of graphic.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tauzero Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Ashdown Superfly front end. The EQ is accessible via the editor to give you a parametric EQ with Q, frequency, and cut/boost level editable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In most cases they've tended to work best with a dedicated preamp in front of them. I also have used my Rane RPM26z, which is digital and IIRC can do up to 150 bands of fully parametric EQ.
