The Kuassa EVE-AT4 is a sophisticated 3-band equalizer that draws inspiration from the legendary Neve 1073. Designed to echo the EQ section of the Neve 1084, the EVE-AT4 offers a modern twist on a classic audio tool shaped in the rich sonic tradition of the 20th century.
While it has fewer bands and a more limited frequency selection compared to its counterpart, the EVE-AT1, the EVE-AT4 excels with its unique filter implementation. This results in a distinctive frequency response—giving it a characteristic tone that has been a hallmark of numerous classic recordings from the 1970s.
Featuring two individual EQs inspired by the renowned Neve 1081 and 1084 designs, the EVE-AT4 is celebrated for its clear and musical sound. Both models were developed with simplicity and clarity in mind, ensuring intuitive usage and immediate productivity in any music production setting.
Key Features:
- Gain Range: Approximately +/-18dB (Narrow Q), and +/-12 dB (Broad Q)
- High-Pass Filter: Four selectable frequencies at 45, 70, 160, and 360 Hz
- Low Frequencies: Four selectable points at 35, 60, 110, and 220 Hz
- Filter Slope: High-pass and Low-pass filters at -18 dB/octave
- A/B Compare and Copy: A/B compare button and A/B copy button for instant comparisons
- Output Trim & Phase Reverse: Includes output trim and phase reverse capabilities
Both the EVE-AT1 and EVE-AT4 reveal their unique characters in detail: the EVE-AT4 stands out as the stronger ‘character’ equalizer, while the EVE-AT1 serves as an excellent ‘go-to’ equalizer suitable for a wide array of instruments and musical applications.
