Vintage Tube EQ

Apple

Where to get itIncluded with Logic Pro. It is part of that DAW, not a separate download.apple.com

Vintage Tube EQ is a dual-unit equalizer plugin that emulates two complementary retro valve-equipped analog EQ units. The upper unit provides lossless passive EQ with sweepable low and high-frequency shelving bands, while the lower unit adds mid-range flexibility. Together they deliver the musical, colored tone characteristic of classic tube EQ hardware, making them versatile tools for mixing and mastering.
