This is the Pultec style equalizer! The PE 1C design marked the birth of Tube-Tech 25 years ago and was created as an exact replica of the original Pultec. Today, the PE 1C is a vintage classic still in production and can be found in professional recording studios all over the world.

The Tube-Tech PE 1C is a passive, tube-based equalizer suitable for many different sources ranging from bass drums and guitars to vocals. The equalizer features a Low Frequency section made up of two low shelf filters which can be combined to attenuate and boost at the same time. These filters are actually bit apart in frequency even if they are controlled by the same frequency selector. The High Frequency section has a peak and shelving filter working in parallel, which provides a smooth top end while not getting too bright.

The ability to combine the different filters and sections is what gives the PE 1C its characteristic sound and is something which plays a crucial part in explaining the classic Pultec sound.

The Tube-Tech PE 1C plug-in by Softube captures every nuance of the hardware version. It has an extremely analog sound that is evident as soon as you start using it. Every aspect of this studio standard, 25 years in the making, is now finally available as a plug-in.

Controls

Low Frequency Section

Two low shelf filters make up the low frequency section. One filter is made for boosting and the other for attenuating, the two can be combined with an effect unique to this equalizer.

High Frequency Boost

The High Frequency Section is made up of a peak filter for boosting the signal and a high shelf filter for attenuating. The PE 1C is known for its smooth top end, it can really help with opening up a vocal track for example!

High Frequency Attenuation

The High Frequency attenuation works independently of the high frequency boost controls. Select the desired frequency with the Atten Sel switch and choose amount of attenuation with the Atten knob.

Developed together with Tube-Tech

As usual, we have had the help from the bright minds and sensitive ears of the Tube-Tech crew.

Additional Output Gain

In addition to the classic controls, we added an Output Gain control.
