API 560 500 Series Graphic Equalizer Reviews

Modular 10-band Graphic Equalizer, 500 Series Classic Reissue, With 12dB of Boost/Cut Per Band, Silent Bypass, and Proportional Q

Yet another API modern classic, the 560 is a discrete 10-band graphic EQ - originally conceived for the API consoles in the 60s and 70s. This reissue is all about helping you achieve difficult equalization tasks. Not only does the API 560 give you that unique "API sound," but it also offers up incredible curve-shaping potential - especially when paired with a parametric EQ. Everything about the API 560 was born from the original - only this "new-old" version features improved resolution at +/- 4dB. You can use the API 560 within any API 500 Series chassis.

I use it on everything!

By Fernando C. from MIami

I have 7 of these! I love them; I need two more ( in order to be able to work faster). I use them on drums, bass, sometimes on guitar and recently I started using it on vocals. It's high quality stuff. You kinda have to get familiar with it. Lucky for me someone gave some really good presets for for drums, bass, and guitars. You can't go wrong with API.

Best midrange channel EQ

By Pier G. from Doylestown, PA
Music Background: Producer/Engineer/Musician/Studio Owner

These EQs have been around for a good long time. The new ones seem to lack a little of the mojo of the originals but they're still fantastic. The 560 is particularly good on guitars and drums (snare). Aggressive midrange. A Classic.

560 Classic API

It's that classic sound ! When you hear it your ears just identify with it as a sound you've heard before.

API 560

By Sweetwater Customer
Music Background: Engineer, Producer, Musician

This is my favorite of all the API EQ's. The API 560 will leave you pleasantly surprised when you put it on your kick drum, snare or bass. Couple the API 560 with a 525 compressor and you will have tapped into a signal path that is featured on countless recordings. This is the real deal when it comes to API hardware processing. I love this eq and its simple but effective features. A plug in doesn't even compare to this little powerhouse. You should add an API 560 to your lunchbox today and hear why I give the API 560 5 Stars!
