Vintage EQ Collection
Logic Pro Vintage EQ collection overview
The Logic Pro Vintage Console EQ, Logic Pro Vintage Graphic EQ, and Logic Pro Vintage
Tube EQ plug-ins are modeled on the original EQ circuits of three classic units from the
1950s, 1960s, and 1970s.
The unique output stage of each unit is also modeled, allowing you to pair the output stage
of any unit with the original or other EQ models.
Further enhancements include fully sweepable frequency controls that allow more detailed
signal contouring than the fixed frequency options found on some of the original devices.
Each vintage EQ unit provides a distinct tonal signature that imparts a sonic color
on signals, unlike precise, clean modern equalizers such as the other Logic EQs.
All vintage EQ models share a set of common Output parameters, along with unique
parameters that are discussed in each section.
Output parameters
• Drive knob: Set the amount of gain/saturation of the chosen vintage EQ output stage.
This imparts the distortion and coloration of the original hardware output stage, even
if all EQ bands are in a neutral position.
• Output Model pop-up menu: Choose a vintage EQ model output stage. You can use
the matching output stage model for the active EQ or can choose the output stage of
another unit. The output stage allows you to add harmonic distortion to your signals.
• Silky (Tube EQ): The output stage of the Logic Pro Vintage Tube EQ.
• Punchy (Graphic EQ): The output stage of the Logic Pro Vintage Graphic EQ.
• Smooth (Console EQ): The output stage of the Logic Pro Vintage Console EQ.
