this is a 3 band parmetric eq. 3 bands with fixed Q, 20-2k, 50-5k and 200-20k. Each band has +/- 12 db of gain via 3 small sliders. The bands are set with great little silver knobs, as is the level. the sliders are small and can be difficult to set.

I use this with many other pedal and rack effects. Everything is run thru a maxie board and monitored on headphones. Mostly electronic noises, sound design and feedback systems. The unit did not add any noise to the system. The wide range of the bands allow for a great many settings.listen to Lustmord, Kent Sparling and eno for similar sounds.

built much like a boss effect, the small sliders could be a probelm with a heavey foot. I intend to use it only on a table top. pots are very smooth and the over unit is well built. great day-flow orange top with a black case.

I play expermental, slow-fi, noise much and sound design. This unit allow for a wide range of tone modification. works well on anything. with a rich source of sound like a guitar, the tone is limitless. the parametric eq is cvery powerful. Can even be used to remove tape hiss, with out effecting the sound. The band width of the eq is broad, which without making the unit more complex is good. The wide band preserves the musical usefulness, but a tighter Q could be fun ...
