Innovative 4-channel 30-band Digital Graphic EQ for Live Sound Mackie's Quad EQ combines an analog-style interface with next-generation digital processing to give bands and FOH mixers a very handy live sound tool. This 24-bit rackmount processor offers instant storage and recall of frequently used scenarios, while intelligent features and intuitive control panels make the Quad EQ ideal for use in fast-paced live settings. Taken together, the Quad EQ and Quad Comp/Gate are powerful and road-ready additions to any serious live sound toolbox. Plus, you'll find Mackie's legendary ease-of-use alive and well in the Quad EQ. Mackie Quad EQ at a Glance: Four channel, 30 band adaptive-Q equalization. Onboard Measurement Tools Store and recall EQ settings, and more. Four Channels of 30-Band Adaptive-Q Equalization The Quad EQ employs four 30-band graphic, Adaptive-Q Equalizers-an innovative design that provides equalization +/- 12dB using 30 individual EQ filters, without the ripple and gain-boosting artifacts found on traditional (Constant-Q) units. These Adaptive-Q filters and new, superaccurate LED display ladders paint a highly detailed picture of the Quad EQ's effect on the output signal. So in other words, what you see is what you get. Of course, if you're the type of person that likes to measure and analyze, you'd really want to get a mic and an RTA unit, which brings us to... Onboard Measurement Tools For the first time, sound-pressure level (SPL) and SMAART real-time analyzer (RTA) meters are no longer expensive add-ons, but part of a fully integrated, user-friendly package. The Quad EQ includes a bundled SIA reference mic, as well as a dedicated reference mic input. Once plugged in, SPL can be displayed via a bright 3-digit display in the upper right corner (at high SPLs, this meter also serves to warn you of oncoming police officers). Or simply press the Mic button and the built-in RTA will display what's going on in the room, on the same ultra-bright* ladders as the EQ filters. In this way, you can simultaneously view your EQ settings versus what the results are. And RTA data is post EQ, so if you encounter feedback, you can quickly see it, cut it, and view the results. Now that's progress. Store and Recall EQ Settings Of course, with the Quad EQ's ample processing power, Mackie couldn't leave well enough alone. The Quad EQ adds some features live sound folks will really appreciate: 99 user snapshots to store and recall your EQ settings; a built-in pink noise generator; variable Hi and Low pass filters with multiple slopes on all four channels; Stereo Linking of channels A/B and C/D; high-quality TRS and XLR input/output, and a Planet Earth power supply for use anywhere between 100 and 240v. . And for your most demanding audiences, the front panel boasts what Mackie calls a "Really impressive 'Light Show.'" Mackie Quad EQ Features: 4 channels of digital 30 band, Adaptive-Q graphic equalizers Variable High and Low pass filters on each channel with multiple slopes Built-in RTA (Real Time Analyzer) of input or mic signals Simultaneous EQ and RTA display A, B, and C weighted dB-SPL meter function Built-in Pink noise generator 99 snapshots for instant recall of settings Stereo Linking of channels A and B, C and D Intuitive, easy to use front panel Professional input/output connections (XLR & TRS) Developed in collaboration with Acuma Labs and SIA software "Planet Earth" Power Supply (100-240VAC 50/60Hz) Really impressive "Light Show" Experience the precision, convenience, reliability, and great sound of the Mackie Quad EQ.  Tell a Friend About the Quad EQ!  Print This Page
