Put a Modern Classic EQ in Your Rack

The Lang PEQ-1 and Klangfilm RZ062 were sought-after tube equalizers of the 1950s and '60s. Now you can enhance your 500 Series rack with an updated (and considerably smaller) solid-state EQ inspired by these classics. The Purple Audio Lilpeqr-M gives you unique, colorful, and dimensional richness and response reminiscent of those original units, while incorporating high-performance components and modern features such as stepped potentiometers for exacting recall and stereo matching. Use the Lilpeqr-M to add heft, glue, and air to your mix; or optimize the sound of individual tracks. However you use it, you'll be glad you have the Purple Audio Lilpeqr-M in your studio arsenal.

Purple Audio Lilpeqr-M 500 Series EQ at a Glance:
  • Boost your mix with air, glue, and slam factor
  • True bypass for easy, accurate before and after comparisons
  • Buffered Level control, for tightness and focus
Boost your mix with air, glue, and slam factor

The Lilpeqr-M is Purple Audio's concept of the classic mastering EQ. The Lilpeqr-M sports high- and low-frequency shelving bands - each with three carefully selected corner frequencies and a switchable fader knob for overall level control. Strap a pair of these unique equalizers across your mix bus to add air, glue, and slam factor to your mix. Sweetwater engineers were impressed with the Lilpeqr-M's impeccable performance.

True bypass for easy, accurate before and after comparisons

Purple Audio's Lilpeqr-M sports relay true bypass, letting you easily compare your before- and after-EQ signals. Moreover, the unit's simple overall circuit path gives you broad bandwidth so that your entire signal passes through. When you've got EQ engaged with both EQ knobs centered, the Lilpeqr-M delivers a frequency response of +/- 0.5dBu from 20Hz to 20kHz, and in fact, it extends below 10Hz and well beyond 120kHz before any falloff occurs.

Buffered Level control, for tightness and focus

The Lilpeqr-M has a secret weapon that's great for individual tracks within your mix. If you flip the switch to the upper position (In + Level) the LED glows red and you've activated the Lilpeqr-M's buffered Level control. Situated in between the input transformer and the EQ network, discrete Class A buffers slightly change your response, making your signal sound tighter and more focused. The Buffered Level control adds even more versatility to the Purple Audio Lilpeqr-M, making it a must-have addition to your 500 Series rack.

Purple Audio Lilpeqr-M 500 Series EQ Features:
  • Inspired by the classic Lang PEQ-1 and Klangfilm RZ062 equalizers
  • Adds unique, colorful, and dimensional richness to mixes and individual tracks
  • Lets you add air, glue, and slam factor to your mix
  • Buffered Level control is great for optimizing the sound of individual tracks
  • Includes stepped potentiometers for exacting recall and stereo matching
  • True bypass for easy, accurate before and after comparisons
Purple Audio's Lilpeqr-M: put a modern classic in your 500 Series rack!
