Weiss EQ1-DYN-LP - 7 Band Equalizer

EQ1-DYN-LP, Dynamic and Linear Phase EQ in a single unit, selectable after Power-Up.

The EQ1 is available in four different configurations. All of them work at 24/96. The basic model is the EQ1-MK2 which is offered here, the linear phase model is the EQ1-LP, the dynamic model the EQ1-DYN. The EQ1-DYN-LP incorporates both LP and DYN versions in one unit. The mode of operation (LP or DYN) can be chosen after power-up. All models are user-upgradeable to any other version.


The EQ1-DYN-LP

The EQ1-DYN-LP contains both the Dynamic and the Linear Phase EQ programs. After power-up of the unit, the user can chose between Dynamic (DYN) and Linear Phase (LP) modes. This allows to use a single unit for a wealth of different equalizing tasks.

The workspace storage, the snapshots and the snapshot backups are fully independent between the DYN and LP parts of the unit. This means that all setup data are retained in any case. Users of EQ1-LP and EQ1-DYN units can upload their current snapshot data into the EQ1-DYN-LP via MIDI.





Here are the main features common to all four models:

• Seven identical parametric bands. All seven bands cover the entire audio frequency range. Each band has Boost/Cut, Frequency and Q/Slope knobs. Each band operates in any of the following modes: High shelving, low shelving, peaking, high cut, low cut, bypass.
• One parameter per knob operation. Seven sets of controls for seven operating bands. Knobs are touch sensitive. LCD display shows detailed parameters of the touched band.
• Large, backlit Liquid Crystal Display which shows the overall frequency response (calculated in real time) and the detailed parameter values in dB, Hz and Q.
• A/B compare memory, 128 snapshot bank with two additional banks for back-up.
• Digital input / output in AES/EBU format on XLR connectors.
• Dithering to 16, 20 or 24 bits. POW-R dithering in the LP, DYN and DYN-LP models.
• 128 steps for boost/cut, frequency and Q parameters.
• Variable slope shelving filters.
• Very high Q (up to 650) for notching out offending frequencies.
• M/S mode for independent equalization of M and S channels. M/S encoder / decoder can be configured separately. 
• Peak meter, over indicators.
• MIDI control for each parameter.
• Bypass, overall gain, CH1/2 independent or ganged.
