Waves PuigTec EQs: Equalizer Plugin

Pultec’s passive EQs—introduced over 50 years ago—became mainstays for mastering as well as for vocals bass guitar and more. With their gentle tone-shaping talents the EQP-1A (highs and lows) and MEQ-5 (midrange) set a standard for passive EQs that remains unchallenged to this day. Waves modeled these beautifully maintained hand-crafted legends from the personal collection of Grammy-winning producer/mixer Jack Joseph Puig (John Mayer Lady Gaga Rolling Stones). Now they can help you shape your sound.

True to the Original

The original Pultec EQs have a well-earned reputation for sonic purity. Acclaimed producer/engineer Jack Joseph Puig has two of the finest examples of these rare hand-built EQs in his studio. We modeled the units under his guidance for fidelity to the analog originals.
