Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built around seven proportional-Q bands, the MQ-2 combines stereo EQ, single-control program-dependent compression, and CRUSH harmonic saturation in one 500 Series processor. The compressor can sit on either side of the EQ, so a tracking or mix chain can be arranged around the order that suits the adjustment. Hardwired bypass and metering keep changes easy to check. Its variable ±10 dB bands allow anything from restrained correction to more pronounced equalization.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Studio tracking or mixing where EQ and compression order needs to be selectable.
- Shaping vocals, drums, or complete mixes with seven variable EQ bands.
- Adding CRUSH saturation alongside compression and equalization in a stereo signal path.
