Four fully parametric bands of console-style EQ with overlapping frequencies, ±20 dB of gain, and continuously variable Q give you incredible flexibility for subtle tonal shaping, creative sound sculpting, or anything in between. Inspired by the brand's flagship 88RS console, this parametric equalizer is built for precise control and minimal phase shift. For even more classic British flavor, pair the Neve 88R LBEQ with the 88RLB preamp or 88R LBC compressor.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_0\"\u003e88RS CONSOLE EQ REIMAGINED FOR 500 SERIES\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eBased on the EQ circuit in the Neve 88RS console and optimized for the 500 Series format, this premium EQ module preserves the key elements that made the 88RS a staple in major studios: colorful frequency response, coherent phase, and ample headroom for high dynamic range signals. The Neve 88R LBEQ offers over +27 dBu of headroom and ultra-low distortion, keeping transients and stereo image intact even with heavy processing. For engineers who want a genuine Neve parametric equalizer in a compact package, the Neve 88R LBEQ 500 Series EQ delivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_1\"\u003eLOW BAND: FOUNDATION, WEIGHT, AND IMPACT\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe Low Band on the 88R LBEQ 500 Series EQ is built for powerful low-frequency shaping with a musical response. Use the low band to add weight to kick and bass with broad curves or use narrow bell curves to surgically remove low-mid buildup. With up to ±20 dB of gain and extensive frequency overlap with the low-midrange band, you can use it almost like a high-pass filter to create resonant shelves while retaining dynamic range.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_2\"\u003eLOW-MID BAND: WARMTH, BODY, AND DEPTH\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe Low-Mid Band covers the critical frequencies where the \"body\" of many sounds lives, making it ideal for taming muddiness or adding warmth to guitars, drums, and vocals. This fully parametric band offers a wide range of frequencies and smoothly adjustable Q to cleanly carve space or bolster your sound. Thanks to the Neve 88R LBEQ's extensive frequency overlap and minimal phase shift, your low-mid EQ adjustments will play nicely with neighboring EQ bands instead of interfering with them.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_3\"\u003eHIGH-MID BAND: PRESENCE, CLARITY, AND EXPRESSION\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe equalizer's High-Mid section is the go-to control for clarity, attack, and sharpness. Whether you need to help a vocal poke through the mix, mellow out harsh cymbals, or add bite to guitars, the high mid band’s precise control and narrow bell options let you get as gentle or surgical as you want. The musical response of the 88R LBEQ 500 Series EQ preserves stereo imaging and transient detail even when making aggressive cuts or boosts.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_4\"\u003eHIGH BAND: AIR, SHINE, AND HIGH-END PRECISION\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe High Band on the Neve 88R LBEQ allows you to shape presence, add \"air,\" and round off harshness in the treble range. With a wide, sweepable range and smoothly adjustable Q, this parametric equalizer is perfect for both gentle lifts and eliminating high-end sibilance and noise. Low phase shift ensures that high-frequency EQ boosts remain natural and transients retain clarity without sounding brittle or introducing comb filtering.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_5\"\u003eTHE 88R LB SERIES\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe 88R LBEQ equalizer is part of the Neve 88R LB Series, which includes the 88R LBC compressor and 88RLB preamp for a complete 500 Series signal chain with classic Neve sound. Record with the 88RLB preamp for bold front-end tone, control dynamics, and add excitement with the 88R LBC, and use the 88R LBEQ to polish your tracks or surgically remove problem frequencies. Featuring genuine Neve topology in a modular format, these 500 series modules deliver the consistent, world-class studio tone that makes Neve a go-to for major studios and flagship desk applications.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Neve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44451343466599,"sku":"501291","price":995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/neve-88r-lbeq_501291_1.jpg?v=1787096872","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.com\/products\/neve-88r-lbeq-500-series-88rs-console-eq-module","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
