Controlling the Rupert EQ 773 plug-in parameters
Rupert EQ 773 is a processor that emulates the equalizer section built into numerous classic consoles
developed by Rupert Neve during the 1960s and 1970s. It accurately models this peerless EQ that is loved by
engineers around the world and has been used on numerous historic sessions. With a distinctive EQ curve
and rich overtones, this unit is notable for the way in which slight adjustments in the gain can produce vivid
changes in the sound’s expressiveness and sense of airiness. Even large EQ boosts do not fatigue the ear, but
still allow the musical component of the source to be emphasized. When the EQ is used to cut, or when the
HPF is turned on, the sound becomes solid, yet without impairing the presence of that region, allowing you
to control the tone while preserving the musical balance. Also, the EQ precisely emulates the input and
output circuits that make lavish use of audio transformers and discrete class-A amps (which are the
signature of Rupert Neve). Simply passing the signal through these circuits enhances the solidity of the
sound, letting you obtain the depth and spaciousness associated with the Rupert Neve sound.
