Description

Three inspiring analog EQs — with a sound like nothing else.

The Passive-Active Pack is a collection of three very different equalizers, each with its own character and quirks. Together they make an excellent secret-weapon analog-style EQ toolbox.

The Passive and Active equalizers emulate real workhorse units, used on thousands of recordings from past to present. The Focusing Equalizer, an original creation of Softube's, combines these with analog saturation and a novel workflow, to give you musical results, and a wonderful sound every time.

This product supports Extended Features

We love VU meters, Bakelite knobs, and analog quirks. But we want modern precision and workflow. The answer? Softube Extended Features. Easy-access panels with the innovations you need close at hand.

Console 1 Ready

This plug-in can be used within Console 1, our mixing system.

Highlights

  • An analog-style EQ toolbox, with three very different and unique equalizers
  • Perfect for both broad brushstrokes and surgical applications
  • Focusing Equalizer sparks your creativity with built-in saturation and the possibility to choose between passive and active EQ sound

    “Passive” is great

    “Passive” produces a super-wide, ambiguous, yet pleasant sound.
