The Drawmer 1971 Parametric EQ is a two channel 4 band fully parametric EQ, loaded with tone shaping features, perfectly suited for tracking, mixing, and mastering applications. From subtle adjustments, to analogue warmth and easy recall, the 1971 gives it all.
The Drawmer 1971 Parametric EQ offers a versatile design, featuring dual channel precision stepped potentiometers, providing exceptional accuracy for fast and simple recall. All four bands have fully variable frequency controls and each offer a cut and boost function. Additionally, the two mid bands have completely variable filter bandwidth controls, enabling the user to focus on very narrow sections of the audio spectrum, or apply a broad natural sounding filter, and anything in between. Fully adjustable low and high cut filters are also included, ideal for tuning out undesirable signals at the frequency extremes. It also features switchable slopes on the low and high bands, allowing you to alter the focus at the top and bottom frequencies plus a low peak setting that magnifies the bottom end. The 1971 is perfect for tonal shaping, staying true to the sound of the 70s and ideal for any recording engineer or musician.
Fully Parametric with Totally Variable Bandwidth
The 1971 is a true ‘parametric’ equaliser, with the four bands having fully variable frequency controls and offer cut and boost of +/-12dB’s. However, unlike EQ’s with a no bandwidth adjustment, or a simple switch, the two mid bands have completely variable filter bandwidth controls enabling the user to focus in on very narrow sections of the audio spectrum or apply a broad natural sounding filter, or, of course, anything in between the two. This makes the 1971 incredibly versatile and capable of modifying everything from subtly fine tuning mixes to tone sculpting problematic recordings.
Variable Low and High Cut Filters
The 1971 includes fully variable low and high cut filters (10Hz-225Hz and 4kHz-32kHz respectively), ideal for tuning out undesirable signals. The beauty of being fully variable is that, unlike fixed frequency filters, it is easy to sweep both controls to find the perfect setting and remove sounds with pinpoint accuracy. This is especially useful when bracketing individual tracks.

Crush
A feature that is unique to the 1971 is the CRUSH button. A switchable option available on each band, it adds a fixed time constant, auto gain makeup compressor, whilst also giving a wider rounder bandwidth. In addition it introduces some musically pleasing harmonics.
