Today we are proud and excited to announce that we have finalized and launched major updates to both Nomad Factory's flagship products, Pulse-Tec EQs and All-Tec EQs.
These plug-ins are faithful emulations of the legendary PULTEC & ALTEC hardware equalizers, and they are now version 2.0, that brings full support to the latest Windows and macOS operating systems, as well as native compatibility with the latest Apple Silicon chips.
This is also a major UPGRADE to both Pulse-Tec EQs and All-Tec EQs plug-ins, adding useful new modules and features to the product line as well as completely redesigned, hi resolution and resizable GUIs, and two different skins (Classic and Fancy White).
*The two plug-ins are now packaged within a new Bundle named Retro EQs Bundle that contains both Pulse-Tec and All-Tec EQs installers.
The Pultec EQs Story
The Pultec EQP-1, the first passive program EQ, was introduced in the early 1950s and revolutionized recording techniques by allowing more control over the sound. The Pultec EQs gained popularity because they improved any signal that passed through them, even in bypass mode. They are still being used today.
The EQP-1 was followed by the EQP-1A (with some variations of the low end curves) and other Pultec models such as the MEQ-5 for midrange and the HLF module for high-pass and low-pass filtering.
The Pulse-Tec EQs v2 by Nomad Factory faithfully reproduce the original hardware units' curves and offer the three modules in a single plugin. But the new version also adds four unique features that make the Pulse-Tec EQs 2 by Nomad Factory the ultimate Pultec emulation:
- LINKABLE Boost/Attenuation: The Classic Pultec Trick (for punchy low end) is easier than ever to achieve.
- 2 MID CUT BANDS: The dream feature that every engineer has always wanted; you can finally remove boominess and harshness at the same time.
- ANALOG CIRCUITS: You can adjust the amount of harmonic distortion and make it sound clean or you can go beyond and enhance the vintage tube and transformer vibe, just like from the original unit.
- MIX: You can blend dry and processed sound to create subtle or dramatic variations.
The Altec EQs Story
The Altec 9063 EQ was a very popular mastering EQ in the 1950s, and the graphic models 9062 and 9073 were also known as the Ultimate Motown EQs.
The new Nomad Factory All-TEC EQs v2 (formerly All-Tech 9063b EQ) emulates all the features of the Altec EQs, plus the very precise high-pass and low-pass filters.
With the All-Tec EQs v2, you can experience the "legend" of the Altec EQs in a single plugin!
The adjustable analog saturation makes it sound closer than ever to the original units, and you can also boost the harmonic content beyond the natural level and make it sound more gritty and aggressive.
The extra mix control feature is perfect for blending in some of the dry signal and creating unique tone variations.
The Pulse-TEC EQs v2 and All-TEC EQs v2 are the perfect combo to bring the classic top-class vintage sound to your DAW.
