Both the ParaEq MK II and the ParaEq MK II Deluxe feature a low-noise, transparent signal path that is extremely versatile, with three fully parametric bands for broad tonal shaping and precise fine-tuning. The standard MK II is the choice for players who want that studio-grade parametric control and footswitchable boost in the most compact, straightforward package; step up to the Deluxe if you also need high-pass and low-pass filters and Baxandall shelving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Parametric over Graphic EQ?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGraphic equalizers give you a convenient visual sense of the EQ curve, but there's a tradeoff in transparency and precision. A parametric EQ offers a much more focused adjustment, affecting only the targeted frequencies, while a graphic EQ alters a broader range of the spectrum and can unintentionally reduce other parts of the signal. That combination of transparency and precision is why studio control rooms are dominated by parametric equalizers, and why they're a great choice for creative and corrective EQ on your pedalboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEQ\/boost pedal with linked or independent switching\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e27V internal operation for high clean headroom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 parametric bands with 15dB of boost\/cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelectable bandwidth per band\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFootswitchable boost with up to 30dB of gain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrue or buffered bypass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInput Impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1MΩ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput Impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100Ω\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency Response (-3dB):\u003c\/strong\u003e 22Hz – 25kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTotal Harmonic Distortion:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026lt; 0.05%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNoise:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026gt; 107dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeadroom:\u003c\/strong\u003e +30dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInput Voltage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9V DC centre-negative, 2.1mm barrel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRequired Current:\u003c\/strong\u003e 300mA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.8\" L × 2.6\" W × 1.5\" H (2.5\" including controls)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUPC: 850040850383\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Empress Effects","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43052189417543,"sku":"EMP013-PARAEQ2","price":388.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2221\/6669\/files\/unnamed_ffc3fd1d-1743-47d9-a4e6-70193f5214e1.jpg?v=1786068964","url":"https:\/\/www.echoinox.com\/products\/empress-effects-paraeq-mk-ii","provider":"Echoinox","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
