Free The Tone Free The Tone PA-1QB Programmable Analog 10 Band EQ Pedal for Bass Guitar
Presenting the new Free The Tone PA-1QB Programmable Analog 10 Band EQ Pedal for Bass Guitar. The Free The Tone PA-1QB EQ Pedal is an epoch-making device produced by pursuing integration of digital and analog technologies cultivated through the development of their Ambi Space Reverb and Tri-Avatar Chorus pedals. At first glance the PA-1QB looks like a digital equalizer effects unit but it is an “analog equalizer.” Including I/O sections, its equalizer circuits through which the bass signals pass are all fully analog and contour the rich tones of your bass as analog signals. This is the same signal processing method you will find in graphic equalizers with conventional slider volume controls. The PA-1QB is an analog effects unit, but its parameter control section is a digital circuit that can precisely store and process the status of various parameters in the digital domain. This enables real-time parameter control via presets and MIDI. The PA-1QB is an effects unit that fuses rich analog sound with the ease and versatility of a digital control device while maintaining a high level of sound quality. Experience its state-of-the-art sound and ease of operation. for yourself! All of the equalizer circuits (including I/O sections) that pass instrument signals are fully analog and the parameter control section is a digital circuit. This allows for real-time control via preset recalling and MIDI. The HTS (Holistic Tonal Solution) circuit which is one of the major features of the Free The Tone products has been renewed with this product release. It holistically manages high-quality guitar/bass signals from input to output to keep the sound texture the same whether the effect is on or off. The 10-band equalizer’s frequencies are selected specially for guitar and for bass and the frequencies and equalizer curves are optimized for each instrument to allow more useful and minute adjustments. Any of 99 presets can be recalled instantly by control via MIDI signals. The PA-1QB can be used not only as an equalizer effects unit but also as a preset volume controller that manages sound level in each preset. It is equally suitable to applications to increase the volume of solo playing or to level out individual differences in output levels when switching between multiple basses.
