He explains "...several years ago I started hating digital sound and wanted to get back some of the analog stuff I loved so much. So I was seriously infected with the DIY virus.......that´s it so far,hahaha..... "

Udo has a rack full of EQ ONE. This was his reaction after building his first pair;

Cemal! What have you and Mr Langley done to me?

Listened to both units and first I must say is they are Amek! Wow, it felt like a Déjà vu, we had the early Angela, BCII back in the mid 80s early 90s.

And these guys have balls.

The high and low pass filters are great even to form a telephone sound.

The low mids are bombastic, and the low end is .......hmmmmm..... I must go doiwn to the cellar to see where that ends.

Band overlapping wide, punchy sounding, fast response. Must stop and listen, overwhelmed. All the best to you and please let Mr Langley know.

Udo.

And also some day later, we have got an email from him. Here it is...

Hi Cemal,

Excuse me replying so late,way too much work atm.

But yesterday we had an exciting experience:After days of troubleshooting and heavy eq'ing with our two dry-hire DiGiCo SD9 consoles it still seemed to be impossible to get out useful signals (headworn mics,DPA,omni) from them.The main goal was to have good EQs on their outputs to handle the first 2-3 room modes for our vocal stuff,so not system EQs.

No chance at all,even by trying different sorts of onboard tools plus(!) heavy input-eq'ing.

The P.A. System is excellent and nicely tuned/delayed btw.

So I decided to hook up my EQ ONES to the output stages of my console.

And guess what:Knockout within seconds!!!

My friend,this EQ is outstanding at this signal position! We even flattened out all console eqs to see what might happen,the result was mindblowing!Lots of headroom accompanied by a stunning mic sound that I have never achieved before on a sound reinforcement system.

I'm really excited now since I haven't set up any channel eqs or dynamics so far nor did I hook up my preamps and compressors as front ends for the eight lead vocals.

What a day.....

Oh,I was asked to sent you a warm hello from my new partner and head of sound here.When she touched the EQ ONE for the very first time it simply blew her away.....hahaha!

Today I wear a t-shirt saying "Analog ist besser".

Strike.

All the best to you my friend,

Udo
