The Black Box Analog Design HG-Q redefines audio enhancement with its innovative design, versatile tube saturation, and simultaneous cut-and-boost capabilities. This EQ supports dual-mono, stereo, and M/S modes, offering six fully independent, interactive bands for dynamic frequency shaping and sculpting. Paired with its renowned tube saturation circuitry, the HG-Q delivers rich harmonic detail, depth, and energy while preserving mix clarity, elevating analog EQ and enhancement to unprecedented levels of versatility and integration.A standout feature is its advanced saturation circuit, which enhances harmonic richness without compromising transient precision or mix clarity. Unlike traditional saturation, the HG-Q brings subtle details to the forefront, increasing mix density and delivering a fuller, more vibrant sound.GET CREATIVE!The HG-Q unlocks groundbreaking possibilities for creativity and workflow. At its core is an innovative topology where the bands interact in intricate ways, enabling extraordinary sonic shaping far beyond the capabilities of traditional equalizers. The 2X mode amplifies the EQ`s potential, offering up to 16 dB boosts and cuts while intensifying saturation to highlight every harmonic nuance.This design produces a cohesive, balanced, and musically engaging sound, even at aggressive settings. By combining boosts, cuts, saturation, and the ability to switch between series and parallel configurations, the HG-Q creates complex tonal interactions and curves that traditional EQs simply can`t achieve.TRUE ANALOG PROCESSING WITH PLUG-IN CONTROLSeamlessly integrated with its included plug-in counterpart, the HG-Q plug-in offers precise digital control over the hardware’s all-analog circuitry. But it goes further than being just a controller—it’s a fully modeled digital re-creation of the hardware, perfect for remote projects where the physical HG-Q isn’t accessible.The plug-in also includes features that surpass the hardware, such as a spectrum analyzer, allowing you to visualize how adjustments on one band influence frequencies across the spectrum. An extended control view adds convenience with dedicated knobs for every function, providing a streamlined and intuitive workflow.Features:• Six Independent Bands: Each channel offers separate boost and cut circuits with independent gain, Q, and frequency controls for maximum flexibility and musical interaction.• Unique Analog Topology: Complex phase interactions between bands enhance harmonic relationships in the mix, allowing for creative and unique sonic enhancements.• Integrated Tube Saturation: Built into the boost circuits, tube saturation adds harmonic richness, density, and analog character, providing depth and dimension to any audio source.• Solid-State Cut Filters: Precision filters ensure clarity and accuracy when removing problematic frequencies or compensating for boosts.• 2X Mode: Doubles the control range for both boosts and cuts, enabling dramatic tonal reshaping with intensified harmonic saturation.• Flexible Modes: Switch seamlessly between stereo, mid-side (M/S), dual mono, and mono modes to suit any workflow or creative requirement.• 3U Rack-Mount Chassis: A durable and modern design with classic analog aesthetics ensures reliability and performance in demanding studio environments.• Series and Parallel Configurations: Explore nuanced and dramatic ways to shape your sound, opening up endless possibilities for tonal experimentation and mix reshaping.• Intuitive LED Indicators: Responsive displays provide actionable insights, streamlining the creative process while maintaining precision.• Hardware and Plug-In Integration: Smooth communication between hardware and plug-in creates new possibilities for hybrid workflows and expands creative flexibility.
