The Red 2 Dual Equaliser features Focusrite's combination of warmth and smoothness. It offers two full channels of classic Focusrite EQ w/line-level inputs and outputs, providing a simple and effective EQ for almost any mixing or mastering system. Focusrite Equalisation has a unique design heritage and is renowned for the ease with which outstanding, warm, musical results can be obtained. The Red 2 offers two comprehensive channels of Focusrite EQ with transformer-balanced line level inputs and outputs.
Features: Two channels of classic Focusrite EQ in/out switching and x3 switching on mid bands High and Low fully parametric mid bands Discrete High and Low pass filters Switched High and Low shelving bands Total isolation between bands. These transformer-balanced inputs and outputs provide superb isolation, and this classic approach to interfacing contributes to the warm sonic signature of the Focusrite EQ. In fact many owners run their signal paths through the Red 2 to obtain this warmth whether or not they are applying the filters or equalisation. Derived from the classic ISA 110,the Red 2 equaliser offers switched-frequency high and low-pass filters,switched frequency shelving bands for low and high frequencies,and two fully parametric mid bands with frequency sweep and Q controls. The shelving high and low bands offer up to 18dB cut and boost from 3.3 -18kHz and 33 -460Hz respectively,with a constant filter curve shape -unaltered by frequency selection -for mooth,predictable results. The two fully-parametric,mid bands have considerable overlap in available frequency selection.The low-mid band is sweepable from 40-400Hz or (x3)120Hz 1.2kHz. The high mid band is sweepable from 600Hz-6kHz or (x3)1.8kHz-18kHz.The bandwidth (or Q)is continuously variable from 0.3 to 1,allowing a broad or very fine "peaking "or "dipping "curve to be obtained with up to 18db of gain or attenuation. The high and low-pass filters provide 12db per octave attenuation and are switchable in steps between 36Hz 330Hz and 5.6kHz 22kHz respectively.
