The PULSE-TEC EQs combines the legendary Pultec Mid-Range Equalizer MEQ-5 and the well-known Pultec Program Equalizer EQP-1A into a single high quality plug-in, the PULSE-TEC EQs. The PULSE-TEC EQs' sections can be enabled or disabled individually or used simultaneously for full range analog equalizations. We added an analog Pre-Amp section that adds Input Level and Output Level controls as well as a simple 'Clipper' limiter at the master output section.
The PULSE-TEC MEQ-5 Mid-Range Equalizer section is designed to add body and presence to your recorded tracks, highlight or subdue a vocalist where the vocal is already mixed with the orchestra, improve the quality of voices by alternating their fundamental and overtone relationships.
The PULSE-TEC EQP-1A Equalizer section will add a wide range of equalization curves and will make it possible to boost the very low or very high frequency notes of the orchestra without 'muddying up' the middle register instruments. Continuously variable controls permit changing the amount of the equalization or sustained tones without steps in level or noise.

VIDEO
Nomad Factory Pulse-Tec EQs: Full Demonstration
In this video we show how to use the Nomad Factory Pulse-Tec EQ's. The Pulse-Tec EQ's are digital recreations of the legendary Pultec Program Equalizer EQP-1A and the Pultec Mid-Range MEQ-5. The plug-in is used on every track you hear in this rock song including drums, bass, guitars and vocals. The results speak for themselves as we used the Pulse-Tec EQ's to turn raw recordings into a cohesive, finished sounding mix.
Here is what the press has to say about Nomad Factory products.
Recording Magazine
MAGMA
"The MAGMA effects suite is the perfect solution for someone who has a DAW with limited or no effects, someone who likes to have everything grouped into one clean interface, or someone whod like to have some extensive effects routing in their host. With each effect coming in at about $3 apiece, there is a lot of value to be had here." Read the full review:

Musicplayer.com WIHO Award
Motown Retro Bundle
"With the resurrection of the Motown sound in modern music through artists like Amy Winehouse and Raphael Saadiq we wanted to try to use these for what they are intended — put a little old-school feeling into our mixes... The sonic qualities of the plug-ins were top notch, but they especially shined in the higher frequencies. This was very apparent when working with drums. When we applied the Retrology Music-Tone to our overheads we heard a new life and brightness from cymbals that were previously flat and dull simply by running through the preset options. With a few final adjustments and the addition of the Retrology Film-Tone 's overlapping frequency bands to hone in on exactly what we wanted, we had a beautiful marriage of modern recording and classic sound."
Computer Music
Magnetic
"We were particularly impressed by the way tape colour could create pumping overheads on a drum kit and popping compression on synth bass... as a tasty analogue thickening agent, Magnetic really shines."
Sounds and Gear
Echoes
"I give Echoes 5 out of 5 subs, it’s really the best echo plug-in I’ve used in my personal opinion, fun, simple to use, and sounds great."
Computer Music
Pulse-Tec EQs
"Pulse-Tec EQs can certainly add warmth to a broad range of instruments, and those famous overlapping boost/attenuate controls can really bring the bass to life. If you're finding it hard to make an instrument gel in the mix, a few small adjustments with Pulse-Tec EQs can work wonders, and the clipper section, while not vital, is handy if you crave yet more warmth, or even a little dirt. The presets aren't too shabby either."
